Good point. I don’t really have anything that can hit my house I am surrounded by a pasture. Guess wind could break them. Was informed my insurance company won’t pay for that kind of damage unless I put up my metal window covers. The contractor included it might as well use it I suppose.

The fact they have SE LA under a Hurricane Warning tells me they are not even confident in what she is going to do.
Nah those warnings are from when they had the track going west of New Orleans and up through Hammond and haven't remembered to cancel them yet.

The models now agree with me.

Hurricane warnings are for wind, so you'll see them go down to tropical storm warnings before they are dropped altogether.

That 48 hour rule has to have the caveat of the storm being decently organized. The center moved on this one a few times.

How far along? We were due in October living in Spanish fort when a hurricane came through. She started having contractions. There was no getting across the bay that night. Luckily never needed to.

The warnings are for "conditions" which include storm surge. The hurricane warning for Lake Pontchartrain is more for the significant storm surge expected. They're not going to see hurricane force winds. Also it means winds of that strength are "possible" which the NHC is pretty fast and loose with how strong the winds are going to be. Which you can see through things like their "earliest arrival time of winds" maps they use. Look at the extent they have on this thing. They got gd Orange, Tx on it.

Toya not happy. She was waiting to blow up the levees like W to hold GEOTUS hostage with relief funds.

You can say that over and over again, but some of these are the same people who were bitching about about a "miss" on Laura when it was 3+ days out and just hitting open water. Nevermind that the eventual landfall was right smack in the middle of every cone shift over those 3+ days.

Calling for 105mph winds at landfall.
Seems conservative considering it’s at 100 now with 36 hours to go

The hurricane hunter plane didn't even find hurricane force winds recently but they use their voodoo ocean frothiness reader and how much they want to scare people to cook up the 100 mph wind number.

I actually misspoke. They are calling for it to reach 110mph winds. Cat 3 begins at 111mph.
Posted on 9/14/20 at 4:35 pm to Roll Tide Ravens
I'm thinking a big drop in winds will happen soon. Looking pretty rough.
