I think a lot of people are getting caught up in category watching and not rainfall totals and raw wind speed. A strong cat 3 with 19" of rain is going to wreck shite. It doesn't matter if it doesn't hit 4



I think a lot of people don't really realize how fricking intense hurricane force winds are. Even cat 1 sustained winds are intense as hell. And if it's slow moving....


Yea a gust or two of hurricane level winds isn't anything to fuss about. 3+ hours straight of hurricane winds? That's a whole different animal.

Dumbass. Never heard of Katrina or Laura? Where were you when these happened with these conditions? This storm has already shown signs of intensification.

I think it has more to do with the lack of recon in the storm myself.



Totally unacceptable in a storm like this. So planes from Tampa and SA had issues today?

In fact, the pressure has
been dropping by about 2 mb per hour based on the aircraft data. In
addition, tail Doppler Radar data from the aircraft indicate that
the vortex has become more symmetric and that the inner core has
contracted from the mission earlier today. These are signals that
Ida is poised to strengthen further, and based on recent satellite
images it appears that strengthening is imminent.


Didn't have the data, but c'mon guys. Especially since strengthening is expected, just get it up a category based on the rationale above and have it called Major Hurricane Ida for the 10 pm news.

The scientific record will be fixed in the post season report anyway.

quote:

Flight-level and
SFMR observations also indicate that Ida's wind field has expanded
and there is some indication of a double-wind maximum. The
tropical-storm-force winds now extend outward up to 120 n mi from
the center and hurricane-force winds up to 35 n mi from the eye.


Interesting on the double max. Need more planes!

Note the wind field is getting solid. More surge, wider spread impacts on wind.

quote:

Ida continues to move steadily to the northwest at about 14 kt.
There has been little change to the track forecast rationale.


There will be 70 more pages debating east or west of the track and shifts on the next advisory anyway.

quote:

Ida remains over waters with high oceanic heat content, and in an
atmospheric environment of low wind shear and abundant moisture.
These conditions, combined with the improved structure of the
hurricane, should allow Ida to rapidly intensify until it makes
landfall. The models remain in fairly good agreement, and the NHC
forecast holds steady and brings Ida to a dangerous major hurricane
prior to landfall. After the storm moves inland on Sunday, rapid
weakening is forecast due to a combination of land interaction,
drier air and some increase in wind shear.


In other words, intensity is still on track for the 130/135 number.

It's also going to put a lot of rain on the east side.

Is this much different than Zeta? Didn’t that come through the NOLA area as a strong CAT 2 low CAT 3? This one may be slightly stronger?
