From Entergy re. The outage: A company spokesperson said the storm had caused a "load imbalance to the company’s transmission and generation" and that Entergy is "making every effort to identify and rectify."
-
It’s a “catastrophic” transmission issue so I’d say perhaps major damage to main substation and/or massive downing of high tension transmission lines.
-
The heaviest rain is over as well. Will they have several hours of additional heavy rainfall? Sure. But the NE quadrant of the eyewall has pushed north of the city.
-
I’m sorry. All of NO has seen the worst of the storm as the eye wall is moving away to its NW.
-
Actually I expect, based on eye position and radar, downtown NO has indeed already seen the worst.
-
Not really
-
I believe that there are automatic shut off valves for such an occurrence
-
Maybe he is reading in kilometers?
-
I saw it as well. My son pointed it out. Lol
-
Most eyewalls contain very little lightning
-
So for this storm, it should be fine. Who knows with today’s climate how long it will hold in the future
-
That far outer band to the NE seems to be restricting good outflow to the NE
-
I don’t know the exact design standards but I am certain they were designed for Cat 5+ The old levee system was flawed and everyone in the USACE knew it. anyway this is banter so we should focus on the storm for now.
-
Katrina was 16 years and billions of dollars in flood protection ago. The levees won’t be topped. The main concern for within the protected areas are wind and rain as the pumps can only pump a certain amount of rainfall per hour

Eye trying to clear out. Small dry pocket to west disappearing
-
Actually the Great Blizzard of 1888 was worse.
-
No it does not. Surge is water rise not including wave action
-
It’s also relatively flat in that part of Cuba.
-
It wasn’t the clouds that did it, it was your location compared to the MCS. Was cloudy here all day and we had one of the longest lasting/largest tornadoes this area has ever seen just a couple miles down the road.

Right over my parents house in Bensalem
-
Report of damaged home in Buckingham and numerous trees down along Rt 32 in Solebury
-
Brother in law cop for Solebury Twp. Non stop calls coming in after NWS confirmed large destructive tornado touched down in New Hope
-
Extremes will always happen. Records are made to be broken. All of this does not change the fact the earth is warming
-
The tide is quite high now in Brigantine along Bayshore. Think the road is going to flood at tonight’s high tide.
-
The same happened17 years ago. They are never everywhere.
