Oh no. Oil rig is loose in the gulf. I hope we are not dealing with another major oil spill in the Gulf after Ida.

Windows are blowing out in Downtown New Orleans.

Ida looks to have made a wobble westward along the coast

 

[StormStalker]

Radar presentation still looks pretty good right now.

WOW! I went to bed last night & Ida was struggling & looked unlikely to get close to CAT 4. The pressure was steady & largely unimpressive. Then I get up & shes at 150 mph & her pressure dropped almost 40 mb!

Still looks nuts on satellite.

This thing isn’t weakening.

It weakened slightly, to 145 mph. Pressure at 934 mb. Still a very powerful Cat 4.

Radar out of New orleans is down

This thing isn’t weakening.

And may not for much longer than we would like - that area is mostly swamp, and then even further north with all the rain we've had, there may be a brown ocean effect.

 

[vanni9283]

Winds still at 140, pressure at 937 mb. Remains Cat 4.

Last couple scans of radar look to show that she is making the turn a little more northward now

Yep. The outer eyewall is going to get the NOLA metro.
