What can Baton Rouge expect?

#1 Postby BigB0882 » Sat Aug 27, 2005 9:10 pm

Hi everyone, this is my first post here. First I want to thank everyone for their very informative posts regarding the tracks and predictions for Katrina. I have learned a lot.

My question is this: I live in Baton Rouge, which is about 60-70 miles WNW from New Orleans. What kind of storm are we looking at from Baton Rouge's standpoint? Let's work with the assumption of a direct hit on New Orleans. Tropical storm force winds and some strong storms? I can't seem to find any mention of what we can expect, even from our own local news!

I realize it is still kind of early and the track can be off and Baton Rouge could possibly be in more of a direct hit path but all the models seems to really cluster around New Orleans with only 4 or 5 models showing tracks closer to Baton Rouge.
