What are your estimates for wind speed in New Orleans
It is so track dependent and well, I don't do forecasts on here. Reasonably I think the range is 45-60 mph, assuming the NHC path and intensity is dead on accurate. Gusts pushing 60-75 mph. Farther west of the path and a stronger storm, and you start pushing the winds toward hurricane force and gusts higher.
The NWS forecast for my location in uptown is for winds of 60 mph with gusts near 75. It will be fast in and fast out. You'll get the high winds for like an hour with an hour ramp up and ramp down on each side.

Thanks. I’m actually staying on the Westbank and the only thing I’m concerned about is the wind. Doesn’t really flood too much where I’m at

Duke, I’m essential at work. My wife and kids age 10 and 7 will be riding this out in Old Metairie. Some of those models coming in at 960. Freaked me the hell out. Is that a real possibility that this thing will come in that strong? I wanted them to leave but my wife refuses

The only reason to leave is if you cant survive without power or there is a big water oak set to fall on your house

What are the odds that this thing can intensify into a Cat 2? Right now, time is our friend if this storm keeps moving quicker. The last thing we need is for the entire SE Louisiana region to be completely blindsided by this thing.

It's possible, we've got two pretty good models on intensity showing it but the HWRF for example that came in at like 962 has the storm with a pressure of 982 mb right now and a fully closed off eyewall. Which is too strong and not quite accurate on the structure. So that run is probably too strong.
It has a chance to ramp up very quickly in the next 12ish hours but I think the 960s pushing Cat 3 are overcooked at this point because the storm would be stronger now.
Now these 970s and a Cat 2, that seems like a reasonable possibility.

Hey, is your house pretty sturdy? Do you have a forest of water oaks around you or some outsized risk of trees falling on it? Assuming you're not worried about trees and you're not in a trailer in Old Metairie (
) they'll probably be fine. Tell him to hunker down in the interior of the house for the worst part. Have some flashlights. Posted on 10/27/20 at 11:02 pm to Duke

I fully expect to wake up tomorrow and see this track shift west more towards Houma.
I decided to take my grandmother to Hammond like last storm and stay at a friend since he has a house generator. Not sure that was a good idea if it hits somewhere like Houma. Hope it doesn't carve up on that path when it heads NE. Obviously depends on how far west it gets.

What part of uptown?
I'm in the nice part so I only expect courteous 30mph winds.

Brother Duke,
1) Just checking to see if you and your family are OK.
2) Tonight, I happened to capture this WeatherUnderground wind prediction for Chelsea, AL (zip 35043, south suburb of Birmingham). Other than being cool to see the remnant eye predicted to pass over our office, what's your take? Computer glitch? Amazingly accurate prediction?
