No matter the situation that New Orleans is currently in, you simply cannot argue that it wouldn’t be worse had the storm moved 10 miles to the right. Yes they got hit hard, but they could have gotten hit harder. What’s wrong with stating this?
-
Let’s wait until the dust settles before answering that one
-
If verified it would top hurricane Andrew’s 142 mph. It should be noted though that this measurement occurred before the worst of Andrew’s eyewall passed over Fowey rocks. Nevertheless epic storm Ida was.
-
Unfortunately for New Orleans Ida is crawling right now. They are seeing a very extended period of hurricane force winds
-
They are absolutely out of the woods with respect to severe winds. Flooding and surge that’s another story but you all already know this so I’m not sure why quoting me and stating New Orleans is not out of the woods yet is necessary
-
Easily a top five hurricane landfall in the north gulf coast. Thankfully a far west track and slow movement spared New Orleans the worst but others certainly took it on the chin
-
There have been several videos and wind reports showing category 3 conditions. You gotta look a bit harder. The storms resilience over land is quite something
-
oh man when people wake up tomorrow…..yikes. The amount of strong mesovorts on IR is quite stunning
-
12 mb drop between passes?!?
-
Considering how this thing looks on radar and satellite I think they find big winds in the NE quad
-
Agree on ETA last year that was truly hilarious shit. Looking forward to maybe some of that tonight
-
The absolute worst case is a westward approach where the north eyewall passes over Lake P. The approach ida is taking is the second worst case. Strong NE winds will back water up into the lake, and strong south winds bring surge from the south.
-
New Orleans is in trouble from a surge perspective no matter where the storm hits because of the angle of approach and general proximity of the core. The only question is do they get the Cat 3 or greater winds.
-
Storm is about to go to work now. Wouldn’t be shocked if it was a major by noon
-
That’s a terrible rant and take. “Storms always will happen so we shouldn’t try and be better with our carbon footprint”. It should have been deleted and should be removed again
-
Stick to the banter thread and you’ll be safe
-
This microwave image is suggestive of a much larger core forming. Will be interested to see what recon finds
-
agreed nobody should mention that glorified Nor’easter when we speak of real cyclones
-
This hot tower going up gotta be one of the wildest I’ve seen
-
We should allow those types of discussions. The radar attenuation argument was one of the funniest I’ve read

https://www.barbadosweather.org/Composite/kidbuuComposite_Lionel_displayer2.php?Product=Reflectivity&Sector=EC_Bar&Composite=Sabre&ANISP=50&MAPP=1&PlanetOfTheApes=58710 center is very well defined On Barbados radar. Seems to be also racing westward
-
Nailed it Windspeed. It looks like a squall line with the wake low tagging behind it. The low level flow to the south is also beginning to be tugged north as well. Seems to be developing nicely but slowly
-
Eta is pounding Nicaragua. I was sure it would be inland by now
-
Big winds now starting to come out to play
-
This is one of the funniest weather moments of my life. Glad I could share it with yall
