Gusts measured in low 80s at airport, 101 at WVUE. Storm has slowed. We won’t be out of this until some time tomorrow evening, given the size and speed of the storm.

No wobbles of significance to report with Ida last hour.

The biggest trend I noticed making this hour's #wobbleplot (shown below) is the shrinking of the outer eyewall.

This is a typical part of the ERC process, though it's odd to see it happen before the inner eyewall decays LINK

good graphic for nola ^

Anyone here around Audubon and camp or along Harrison in lakeview? Entergy outage map actually has more green than I would have thought at this point and looks like those areas might still have power. Not sure I trust those maps to stay current atm though.

I guess have access to your roof (not now obviously). That's all I got. If you run out of food just drink the water. That'll work.
