I saw Levi's animated gif earlier and it looked like the eye was losing formation at a cat2. now it looks like a strong cat4 hurricane. what is in the water off Louisiana?

What you saw on Levi's video was a storm getting its eye together.

Yeah, I’m in chat with some met friends and they agree 5 is definitely on the table now, if not likely.

I’m legitimately afraid right now. How the frick do I ensure my kids are safe during this? The responsibility as their father and my wife’s husband is sorta hitting me right now. I think we are going to “sleep” in our hall bathroom with a mattress over us tomorrow


get to a central spot with no windows and make sure you have an axe or something to chop yourself out of needed.

Greater than 137kt winds at flight level.

Surface level winds would be about 140mph.



Oh, oh Lord. That’s freaking awful. Louisiana will be lucky if it’s just a 4 at this point. My gosh, guys

The eye wall structure finally got its shite together and it's sitting over extremely warm water. It's worst case rn.

And just imagine if it Ida was able to get itself together earlier....

If it’s 940 now what should we expect at landfall? Could it get to Cat 5?

Two hopes at this point.. IMO
(I am not a weather expert and my opinion is basically worthless.. but I’m going to give it anyways)

1) EWRC - Eyewall Replacement Cylce
She is getting so strong that a new bigger eye might try to form.. which will squeeze out the smaller eye. this would lower the max winds a little, but spread them out farther into the storm. Both are bad, but 145+ winds are catastrophic for everything in its path.

2) Dry Air from Somewhere or some other miracle.. pray hard for this one. I don’t see it though.

At this rate, she may approach 900? She still has 10+ hours left over extremely warm water. What is going to slow her down? Just awful.

I’m seriously praying hard for everyone in the path of Ida.. Godspeed to all of you over the next 24 hours..

I’m in the St. Amant/Galvez area. It’s just that that euro run scared the living shite out of me. 120mph gusts for a couple hours surely can destroy a roof and that’s what I’m now worried about.

I need to go to sleep, but I cannot quit watching these updates. People are going to be shocked when they wake up tomorrow. It’s sad the recon flights had issues today because people really would have benefitted from that information and time.

I pray for the safety of everyone who is in the path of this storm. Thankful for this board and the posters here. You all have helped, are helping and will help a lot of people just by your contributions.

There has just never been much in the way of a failure mode. There's nothing to slow it down.

It is hitting Dmax over the warmest waters it has seen, there is no shear, and it was able to wrap the eye in plenty of time.

First thing to do is take deep breath and stay calm. Figure out shite after you do that

I know it's stretch, but if you wanna hop in a car and head to Austin, then you have a place to stay.
