Everything you need to track storms is there.

Great site. Thx

Thanks. Got it now but its showing a high water mark of 19.91 ft. The median is 2.20 feet. So if I'm reading this correctly, and I think I am, the river rose 17.71 feet above its normal level at the E. Broussard bridge!

---What is the latest guess on the maybe Hurricane's tract???

Water in the GOM is very warm. Once the storm get out of the Florida Strait and into the deeper warmer waters, we might see some strengthening. But the model runs are looking much better, for those who actually think computer models have value.

Being computer models are about all we have, I like what I am seeing.

Well its going to make it into the Gulf and like 99% of all hurricanes in the GOM it will make a right hand turn at some point in time. The weaker it stays the later it will make that turn. We are on the outskirts of the envelope with the various models. Highest chance will be Florida panhandle to Miss. However without a consolidated low for the models to lock onto its a little bit of a guessing game.

We probably won't have a good idea of what it is up to until late Monday or Tuesday.

arent computer models supposedly giving us info on global warming/climate change/ climate adjustment?

----Thanks-----Would be interesting for T-Bine to get a thread going where landfall predictions can be made---yes we would need a deadline===OK T-Bine--what says you!!!

As many have soiled themselves over a wave near Cuba, a weak low pressure has kept south winds upon our area, impeding the flow of flood water. That is a real right now situation, but it doesn't create viewers to show in the station's book when selling advertisements.

Was wondering how long this was going to take

WWL just sent out a report that the storm is getting better organized!
