I don’t understand why? They keep tons of them on the shelves in an auto parts store. What’s the difference?
You’re assuming that people have a clean, brand new car battery laying around. I would assume that the only batteries most folks have at their house is removed from a vehicle.

Alright, I'm really not liking the rainfall totals the NAM is pushing. The last run kept the highest totals just offshore. This run brings it inland. This is total precipitation:

Zooming out on WV imagery, it's clear why forecasts for #Ida are so aggressive on intensity even despite some stumbles earlier today.
The storm has dual outflow channels (NW/SE), perfect high pressure overhead, and is well-separated from dry air farther SW. Plus very warm water. LINK
Again, I can't get the gif to download right.
You can also see the ULL over the Gulf that is getting squeezed by Nora and Ida. However, the SW quadrant of Ida's outflow seems to still be impaired by the ULL.

They’ll use the most recent data they have. They won’t have the 18z major models in time to help at 4

Then they need a better system.

don’t think I’ve ever been in a weather thread where someone was advised to go to chalmette
90 is a clustefrick down to 1 lane in Morgan City. I-10 is the normal clusterfrick x10. Just get to the eastern end of New Orleans (Chalmette) and stop driving whenever you find something vacant.

We'd have more information if what I said wasn't true.

It may be the Rant but I've pointed multiple people here for storm info as this is the best plavce for info right now. Can we save the trolling for clean up, people are trying to prepare for this.

The trends certainly look east looking
They frequently tend to hook more eastward after landfall.
I am not an expert, but I think landfall around Grand Isle, followed by a turn north directly over St James, crossing I-12 between Hammond and Baton Rouge. The worst wind to the immediate east of that line. That’s my gut feeling, and I’ve been wrong before. But I think Baton Rouge, Plaquemine, Zachary, and New Roads/St Francisville are going to be on the west side of the eye wall.

Yall, they could not have called a mandatory evacuation in time. It takes 48+ hours to set that up, contraflow takes longer. The news said there was no way to get it done safely in time once the tracks and intensity forecasts called for it.
Then the plan is fricking ridiculous.
They had 60 hours before the storm was to hit.

What? I don’t think people understand what made Katrina bad for New Orleans.
I’m 5 miles north of Covington. I lost 900 trees to Katrina on my 26 acres all pine trees and whatever they fell on and crushed. We only got 6 inches of water but 160 mile an hour winds.

Just saw the live feed of I-10 in Slidell and freak all of that. This is a crappy situation for everybody in south Louisiana.

Im not fan of the government in general, but Im not sure there was anything to do with what Ive read
to get it done, they would have had to put everything in motion before this storm was even a depression
A mandatory evacuation of New Orleans was called 19 hours before Katrina made landfall.
