Can't wait for Isaac to not even achieve category 1 hurricane status. Anyone keeping count of how many times the media has referred to Isaac as a hurricane already, even like a week ago. So much hype for the last week. Probably would be the most cumulative hype ever for a tropical storm.

Some good discussion in the main thread. A few people in particular have kept level heads and analyzed the intensity potential of this storm very objectively, considering the ever-present inner core issues and minor shear

Aside from the typical weenie banter...the thread has been pretty good regarding the outcome of the storm. Most have pointed out the pros and cons or chimed in on how and why the sat presentation looks the way it does.

couldn't agree with you more...it's like a 1-3 inch storm in a non winter--with precious little else to track, everyone hypes the hell out of a tropical storm.

story not done, I know, but to date, ridiculous hype.

It has not been very impressive so far, With all the hype i would have thought we were going to see another andrew

It's definitely trying to get its act together. Almost definitely reaches hurricane intensity in the next 36 hours. I just meant I will laugh quite obnoxiously if it doesn't ;) lol

Tropical threads always draw out the uber weenies, but the mets have had some good discussion going this time. I can only spend so much time in there though before the other posts give me a headache lol

JB says that's a lock...I know you must be shocked--he has Cat 3 into NO now. (passing just to the SW on a west northwest heading.)

JB needs that to happen after that Forbes article yesterday. If true though worst possible angle of approach. Interesting to me anyways evolution depicted by modeling.

12z GGEM and UKMET look pretty similar in bringing the center inland right around Slidell. 12z Euro coming in and looks similar as well thru 24h.

I had to re-read this because at first glance I thought you were talking about Rhode Island and then I realized it was re-intensification. :lol: It's just the way it read along with some of the other posts today.

RI=Rapid intensification

This is the problem with acronyms. To some people something means one thing and to others it means another. It leaves people scratching their head sometimes. I still stand by comment that it was funny if you quickly read it as Rhode Island.
