In case anybody missed it, pressure is down to 987 mb already before reaching the Gulf - not good.

Assuming it's a Morgan City landfall, what kind of winds can Jennings / Lake Arthur expect? I'm not sure if I should prepare hurricane force winds or a 30 - 40 mph gust here and there.

Wife and kids are staying put in Prairieville. We have a good neighborhood so they will help her if shite gets bad. I am heading to NOLA for drill but was told to come with my bags packed.
Getting ready for a very long week.

Andrew took my roof off in Baton Rouge. Taking a video of my contents a day before the storm hit AP saved me. Nsurance company just cut me a check.

Yeah Lili was a mid october storm I think?
Hit that slightly cooler shallower water on the shelf and died
Pretty sure I was living in the Commons at the time and we were worried it was hitting BR. Then it died.
Our 4th wheel was from Abbeville and his parents' place got wrecked

Ida may be far more dangerous than what the computer models are suggesting.
I say this because the storm is intensifying, may well skirt south of the western tip of Cuba and the Isle Of Youth, thereby maintaining its deepening core and having 48 hours of trajectory over very warm water. There is a fair chance that the growing circulation reaches Category 3 or 4 intensity, with an increase of wind speeds just before landfall. Add in the surge off of the Gulf of Mexico, along with quick-hit tornadoes, and you have a recipe for surprise and chaos.
Occasionally, some of the standard equations (use the 12z NAM as an example) have shown a weaker system spiraling off into SE TX. Given that this is a warm-core tropical cyclone, the HWRF version may actually be better as the system zeroes in on Vermilion Bay in Louisiana around daybreak on August 30. I like the slow, lurching track into east central portions of the Bayou State, through northwest Mississippi and then a wobbly motion through Virginia and Tennessee. The big issue will be flooding rains. But for the time that communities like Lafayette, Franklin, Pineville, and Baton Rouge are affected, the howling winds will be etched in memory.
Arizona, by the way, will feel the wrath of Nora early next week as it breaks up after leaving Baja California. And when all is said and done, an oppressive heat wave will encompass much of the USA, save for the far northern tier that gets hammered by severe thunderstorms.
And by the way...have a nice weekend.
per Larry Cosgrove earlier today…

Pretty significant probability that no person currently in MC has experienced a storm this strong before.
After Laura, noooo fricking way.

Right, I think the sustained winds were 65-70 mph in Houston. It was more like the 2016 rain in Baton Rouge than any recent hurricane, if I have to find a comparison.
But so was Gustav for this area (wins in the low to mid 60s) and they felt nothing alike to me.

Just heard, large sized Cat 4 at landfall, unless some miracle, will be direct hit on New Orleans, my birthplace. (Unless Indian Curse is real and it’s BSL. ) Per several retired meteorologist. Not Nash Roberts so they could be wrong, unlikely but possible.
Hot take

Nope. I’ll wager a Morgan City landing
Posted on 8/27/21 at 2:19 pm to Swagga
Is a retired meteorologist still considered a private meteorologist?
Posted on 8/27/21 at 2:20 pm to Dire Wolf
I’m sure it’s been asked but anyone know if flights on Sunday morning into New Orleans will be definitely cancelled?
Out of town at the wrong time and won’t be able to get back before then. If my house floods, I have no one to try and get the water out if it passes(concrete floors).
