ATL: ISAAC - Models

Looks like landfall is finally made at 102 hrs near Lake Charles...

Umm, no. It landfalls in SELA and ride onshore across the state with the last image I've seen having it over Lake Charles.

Sleep well peeps & see ya tomorrow.

0z GFS +108 (Here come the Texans)

The Weather Channel finally changed their cone.

[CYCLONE MIKE]

Forgot to add our local news actually broke in programming with the GFS run. Cant rememebr them ever doing that before. Think some eyes are starting to open up around here

[sphelps8681]

Wonder where it goes from here on this run?

81 hours, nearing the coast around central LA. Probably not landfall yet.

Still offshore at 90 hours, moving due west, heading for Sabine Pass. Still looks like a little ridging to the north.

Do you have a link to that map?

I am so so so glad I went to Walmart tonight for some supplies. I am not going to miss fighting the crowds tomorrow when people wake up in a panic. I have mentioned this storm to everyone who will listen and they ALL looked at me like I was dumb and said "ITS GOING TO THE REPUBLICAN CONVENTION!" That is all they have heard about it...

At hour 108 the center is about to cross the Texas/Lousiana border.

[Jevo]

I would disagree with those saying +102

GFS 0z +72 image seems to be showing the coast line splitting the center in half

WWL radio out of NOLA just mentioned during Saints postgame radio coverage of the GFS shift and awaiting European run later tonight. Wow.

@ Big B

Dont think they will really start the panic until Jindal starts issuing mandatory evacs for Grand Isle and lower SE LA. THEN it will turn into a mass panic

[SeminoleWind]

I sure hope the next G-IV data that is collected will put this flip flopping with these models to bed

Isaac misses shortwave on GFS. Very well could happen.

I said earlier that i wouldn't be so sure of that. Remember when the euro flipped east and the consensus was somewhere around 95% or more? Now look at what is going on a few days later.

[Jevo]

Looking at the 500mb map of the GFS 0z run

@72 you can definitly see the white line depicting the coast of SE LA splitting the center in half which would constitute landfall.... but its still 72 hours and a wobble here or there puts it in a different state

They're probably checking in on S2K for all the details!!

Hopefully they will start stating voluntary evacuations are suggested for Venice, Grand Isle, and all the areas South of New Orleans, so the high ways won't be too congested for when the other evacuations are started.

I'm sure all the helicopters are flying non-stop to oil rigs right now in the Gulf to evacuate them, that is always a crazy situation, and with the uncertainty they could be evacuating a lot of the rigs, which will cause gas prices to go up.

I'd like to see a better initialization before I buy into this run.

[Jevo]

Ok.. next up is the HWRF, then the Euro... We just had a squall come through with 38mph gusts here in Northern Broward County FL... Man Isaac has a long reach... we're still 18 hours away from 1st CONUS landfall
