KLIX radar at 9 am cst. Still offshore where it can continue to strengthen.

Sad to say this storm will be retired. This could be a case like Michael where it comes in at a 4 but gets a 5 rating. God bless the people of Louisiana

A storm chaser left this webcam in Grand Isle, LA. Things are going downhill fast. I don't expect to see this webcam surviving #ida.

John Humphress2 svrweather.com is chasing an impressive storm live on SevereStudios. Watch Live:

FYI I’m watching live stream of Michael Phelps (not the Olympic swimmer) on the RadarOmega app. They have deployed 3 probes that have cameras as well as data that you can watch live from the probes, well…until they get overtaken by the storm.
If you want more info, message me, I won’t answer any questions here, I don’t want to clog this thread. I started using this app a few years ago, love it!!

I think it’s strengthening again.

 

[Kory]

I think it’s strengthening again.

Got concentric eyewalls. I think it’s holding steady state til landfall. That’s bad for New Orleans because the secondary eyewall will likely be in the city.

136 MPH gust in Grand Isle.

 

[Kory]

Gonna be nothing left on Grand Isle.

 

[Kory]

Grand Isle police chief said anamometer broke at 146mph.

Any live storm chaser feeds?

 

[KoD]

Gonna be nothing left on Grand Isle.

Wow crazy to see that surge flowing in non-stop and the peaks of waves getting absolutely shredded and atomized by the wind.

Pressure dropped again from 933 to 931. Ida is relentless.
