So they're willing to drive in heavy traffic from BR to Houston as a strong hurricane is bearing down, but a little rain is where they draw the line?



gat damn I guess reading comprehension is little lacking here. They don't WANT to come if they are going to get stuck in a "strong hurricane". The question is when will the rains get here? Are you saying it will be a "little rain" early Sunday, say around 5 or 6 a.m? ?

I understood your question, just seems odd to drive TO Baton Rouge FROM Houston with a possible Cat 3 heading that way, particularly if you're going to drive back to Houston when everyone else is trying to leave BR at the last minute and head that way.

You could be looking at semi-strong outer bands getting to BR by 5-7am Sunday morning. The real question is how long does the trip to Houston take if you wait until Sunday to leave? A single accident on the Basin Bridge and all hell breaks loose.

Me and some other baws are about 200 miles due south of Nola right now and our forecasts are only projecting 20 foot seas

A higher storm surge with strong wave action would have been great here.

Not in this case, but those types of features can and often do impact storms via wind shear.

In fact, an upper level low out in front of Ida is what has kept the storm from strengthening most of the day today.

Slack- how is Castalano’s? Been eating at Atchafalaya Cafe way more lately with a little JoJo’s sprinkled in. Upgraded to a spot just north of Adam’s Landing so am always looking for places in MC

Yup. They often move in tandem with systems.

So the HMON is further west than the previous run and absolutely bombs out (the HMON is known for this though). It heads north over Morgan City.

Ida struggling to get convection wrapped around the SW quadrant, but this is the most organized the core has been all day.

I never go to Castalano's. No good reason, I just don't think about it until it's too late. I do enjoy a nice Atchafalaya Cafe po-boy.
