Can someone explain storm surge to me. They keep giving storm surge numbers for New Orleans. If you’re in the levee, there can’t be storm surge unless all that water goes over the levee and completely floods the city right? If you have 15ft if storm surge in the levee system, wouldn’t you need at least 15ft if water inside it for it to happen?

Great symmetry with Ida.

It wasn’t even going to get over the maximum OHC until this afternoon and this evening so if any big strengthening happens it was going to be late this evening.
I'm interested to see if it will take advantage DMAX and all that warm water. If that eye fully closes off, there's really nothing stopping it.

When does the next updated storm tracker model come out?

Heard a random liner on TWC yesterday that the gulf water temp avg where the storm is now is 85 degrees. But it's 85 to a depth of 30 meters as well, so the churn doesn't help with lowering intensity.
Is that just TWC mumble or true? Fisherman here may know

If you have storm surge inside the levee system then the levees have failed or been overtopped.

Might get another look in the eye here in a bit, plane is heading that direction

Should be a simple question though.

It is true. The water it is crossing is warm to an unusually deep depth. Upwelling won't be a limiting factor at all for this one.

What they really need to show is a map of Nola’s dewatering capabilities. They get over 15” of rain like some maps I have seen and you will have massive flooding without a levee breach. Now it won’t be to rooftops but will be an absolute shite show none the less

That HMON run shows surprisingly low wind speeds for NOLA and the Northshore. Do the Jamaicans really update that model with the latest data?

Pretty sure the surge along the lake will be much much lower than that. And that’s what matters.
And not having open ended outflow canals run into the city anymore is a big bonus for surge protection
