    I cannot believe the way Ida has stayed together. It's been over land for like...9 hours and is still a major hurricane!!
  2. Floydbuster
    Any videos of Cat 4 gusts?
  3. Floydbuster
    Grand Isle is gonna be a mess. Those winds are insane in that inner eyewall.

    Landfall Video Update for anyone interested https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lp0sefV_3X0
  5. Floydbuster
    That seems too low considering the winds we are seeing in Grand Isle.

    New Video Update on Ida https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Wn93ba2UPJo

    HurricaneTrack.com's webcams show significant surge occuring already near Waveland.

    Sorry for sharing an incorrect tweet. My apologies.

    HOLY COW.

    3am Bulletin Update on Hurricane Ida, now a Cat 4https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Cbgj5wRtxWs

    Those hurricane winds are expanding too, not good for New Orleans or for storm surge.

    Someone asked yesterday why these storms as of late (Michael, Laura, now Ida) seem to deepen towards landfall whereas so many in the past weakened. The answer seems to be storms that wait until the last day to get their act together. Had Ida strengthened into a Cat 4 by Cuba, no way would it have maintained it for a straight 48 hrs without inner core changes and fluctuations.
  13. Floydbuster
    Holy cow. Stewart could probably pull the Cat 4 trigger if he wanted.

    116 kts FL still outside the main NE Eyewall.

    Yeah it's possible that the pressure keeps lowering and then the winds end up catching up to 100-120 kts.
  17. Floydbuster
    I was just gonna say. I've been kinda blah about Ida's appearance all evening but I think this may finally be the strengthening trend we've been anticipating. Ida is also crossing over the loop current heat as we speak.
  18. Floydbuster
    Man it sure looks like Ida is gonna head more towards Southeast Louisiana than Central....and they will definitely be in the right-front quad.
  19. Floydbuster
    Yeah. We have to remember, most of Hurricane Laura's surge was over uninhabited wildlife preserve areas. This will likely be different.

    I think the NHC is gonna have to adjust the track east at 5pm. I don't think landfall will be anywhere west of Morgan City/Houma.
  21. Floydbuster
    Even as "recent" as Andrew in 1992, we didn't have special updates or fixes from the NHC. (If we did they were never archived)

    I actually thinking moving north will help it. I think the SW quad is slightly crushed right now. Moving away further north could improve the ventilation.

    There is a generation of spoiled hurricane kids who were born into a high-speed internet Katrina world. They didn't grow up like me checking out hourly tropical updates on the Weather Channel watching storms fail over and over in the 1990s.
