how so?
Given the cir stances the double eye wall thing may be a good thing
how so?
though a bigger wind field
generally lower windspeed
maybe not though-i was surmising
*** 150 MPH CATEGORY 4 HURRICANE IDA LANDFALL ALERT ***
...EXTREMELY DANGEROUS CATEGORY 4 HURRICANE IDA MAKES LANDFALL NEAR
PORT FOURCHON LOUISIANA...
NOAA Doppler radar imagery indicates that the eye of Ida made
landfall along the southeastern coast of Louisiana near Port
Fourchon around 1155 AM CDT (1655 UTC). Data from an Air Force
Reserve reconnaissance aircraft and Doppler radar data indicate that
Ida's maximum sustained winds at landfall were estimated to be 150
mph (240 km/h). The latest minimum central pressure estimated from
reconnaissance aircraft data is 930 mb (27.46 in).
Within the past hour, sustained winds of 43 mph (69 km/h) and a
gust to 67 mph (107 km/h) were reported at Lakefront Airport in New
Orleans.
A NOAA National Ocean Service tide gauge in S Beach, Louisiana,
recently reported a water level of 6.4 feet above mean higher high
water, which is an approximation of inundation in that area.
A NOAA National Ocean Service tide gauge at Bay Waveland Yacht Club,
Mississippi, recently reported a water level of 5.5 feet above mean
higher high water, which is an approximation of inundation in that
area.

Big wind field, 150 MPH winds, 930 mb central pressure. Large wind field and landfalling with 25 MPH stronger winds than Katrina. This time, will skirt just to the west of Katrina, instead of just to the East. Let's see how NOLA fares this time.
My prediction is that it will be much worse than Hurricane Laura (last year's) impact, which was also a 150 MPH cat 4 landfall, but much smaller and in a much less populous area.
It took 14 hours to get to Austin from New Orleans.
At least you're safe. Except, Austin defunded the police.
Yeah, they're totally broke. It's Fury Road out here.
“Wind is just air - it can’t hurt you”, “Hurricanes are natural and nothing new”, “Only weak and old buildings are affected”, etc.
"it's just a little wind and rain, bro"
Had an offshore tuna trip scheduled in a month out of Venice La. I wonder if Venice is even there now.
it's still a hurricane
Any good live streams nigs?
Just want to tune in for ambience
Anything so far we can nail Biden upon the Tree of Woe with, hater?
Keep an eye peeled.
“Not like it is 1,000mph winds or a pyroclastic flow like in Mt. Vesuvius in 79AD.”
Mississippi River has reportedly reversed flow -- very rare even during hurricanes.
GD it!!! The water shortage is over and Biden will get credit as soon as he returns from Dover AFB. SOB!!!
Anything bad we can lay at Biden's door step, fart face?
It's still a ing Category 4 hurricane 6 hours after landfall.
probably will be downgraded to Cat 3 at 7pm (8PM EDT advisory) though
Eyewall about to hit New Orleans right now, the worst is still to come for Darth_Pelican
dunno, but Santa Monica beach is kicking ass today, tbh
Sorry but doubtful that Biden will just toss some paper towels at citizens for cleanup
C'mon son, Huntington Beach is where it's at.
too lazy to drive over there today, tbh
