He is still in NICU. They had to take him off CPAP today and reintubated due to some issues with his diaphragm.

remember when the Mayor of Rockport, TX told people who stayed during Harvey to write their name on their arm in Sharpie so that they could be identified. I think saying that pushed a few reluctant people to leave. Maybe someone needs to say that here.
Gets mentioned by every mayor ever in these situations. I’d be surprised if it hasn’t happened already.

That shear is moving with Laura to the north, so it may not help as much as you’d otherwise hope. More likely, Laura could experience what is known as an “eyewall replacement cycle” before landfall; basically a way for the storm to reorganize itself. When that happens, a drop in intensity usually occurs, sometimes substantial. We hope this happens right before landfall, which would allow Laura to come in on the decline, rather than at maximum intensity. Unfortunately, this aspect of the forecast is difficult to predict and we are really only relying on hope at this point. It’s possible Laura could just continue strengthening right up to landfall, similar to what Hurricane Michael did 2 years ago near Panama City, FL, though as a colleague of mine pointed out in a conversation earlier, the coastal topography of the Gulf here is much more shallow than off Florida. Shallow water can be more easily churned up and help to reduce the fuel available for hurricanes to feed off of. Whatever it is at landfall doesn’t much matter at this point, as it will still likely be bad.
Laura is moving northwest at 16 mph, which is blazing fast for this part of the Gulf. For folks in Houston, it’s important to know that Laura is doing what is expected, and “the turn” is underway. It’s not “if” or “when.” It “is” happening, and thankfully in the world of 21st century meteorology we can say that with authority. We will not be hit too hard here by this storm. Laura is expected to make landfall on the Cameron Parish side of the Texas/Louisiana border as a category 4 hurricane tonight perhaps around or just before midnight.

Storm Chasers are being warned to move north.
There's a half dozen or so right on the Louisiana coast, which is already seeing 3' surge in some places.

These will be spin-up type tornadoes that could have little-to-no lead time. They often aren't monster tornadoes, so if you're in a sound structure, you're fairly safe.
For sure. I was following on RadarScope as it approached my area from Prairieville. Was outside watching it and then tucked tail and went inside as it came through haha.

Still expected to be in NICU until December? Couldn't believe that, but I'm sure your family will deal with whatever it takes to get him home healthy.

One of the eeriest parts of the buildup to Katrina was turning on the TV Sunday night and seeing all the New Orleans news broadcasts being filmed in Baton Rouge.
