Yeah I would take a quick storm 10 times out of 10.
I’m not an expert, but I’d take a category 2 over a category 4 10/10 times as well

A cat 4 going 100 mph gets better gas mileage than a cat 2 at 10

You are a fantastic hurricane salesman, *Slaps roof of the storm*

slow cat 4 is about as bad as it gets, a fast moving cat 2 would be cake compared
The gist was a fast moving Cat 2 would hold its windfield together further inland than a slower moving stronger storm.

So next run pushes it east?
Maybe, but the 18z GFS pretty much pegged where it thought Ida would be at this moment. It's not some egregious error like it was implied earlier.

With that kind of analysis you're well on your way to your own weather blog.

I was only talking about wind damage further inland.

It's possible but the GFS has been locked on for days now. It would take some really decent changes for it move significantly at this point. Tonight's runs will have additional data and we'll see by after tonight it's pretty much a lock.

I know it’s not ideal but a fast moving Cat 2 is better than a slow arse Cat 4. At least for catastrophic damage. Yes more people may lose power but less people will lose roofs.
Lol duh a cat 2 is better than a cat 4

this isn't 2005 where you wake up and the Florida storm is now a Louisiana storm.
Changes are gonna be like 50 miles or so probably at the very very most

Is the consensus now putting it between Morgan City and Gulfport?

The storm is supposed to be going NW but it's more or less moved west. I suspect the center is bouncing around with all the convection firing different places.

If I recall last year the models were overestimating the forward speed of most storms. Are people fairly confident this thing is really going to go Cuba to Louisiana in ~48 hours? If that’s wrong and this spends a touch longer crossing the gulf . . .
