Thats for surge.

As slack pointed out, you should see Cat 1 gusts, TS sustained if Laura takes the Lake Charles path.

Assuming you are staying in Abbeville****

a-hole on the Weather Channel is orgasmic about this. He's the dumbshit that got too close to an F5 in Oklahoma, and went for a flight in a car.

Yes, but Lafayette will be within 90 nautical miles before the storm even makes landfall.

Recon supports at least 130 kt with that pass. Had a 133 kt SFMR that wasn't flagged, assuming I read that right.

Supportive of 150 mph if not 155 mph. Waiting to see what the drop showed us.

SeaPickle...Can they see Golden Pass LNG from where they are? We have 16 crawler cranes in there right now that I’m assuming will all end up toast.
