DLP obs is over 30 min old though...wonder if they croaked too. 

Not that this situation 'needs' more hyperbole - the nature of what this is, is it's own drama.   It is one situation where the hyperbole can have no affecting superlative meaning, because whatever turn of phrase can be mentioned, those proportions are essentially going to match reality.

Dead meat

Not only is this thing already powerful enough to level the entire region ... rural to urban down to unusable, if not unrecognizable, and most likely, reduced to non-reentry of any civility that isn't a part of extensive multi-dimensional survey teams for shear public safety requirements, for weeks if not longer... it is doing the dread "bombing while arriving upon the coast"

Think Andrew's older brother.

One wonders if Ida's specific approach angle might "spare" - if we wanna call it that .. - the higher potential surge that could otherwise come up the mouth of the Miss.   It's approach is from the south side. 

Now .. obviously the region below NOLA as shown below ... is very lowland - essentially sealevel.  Really it's probably more of a tidal flat in these sort of sea level rise scenario.  I'm not sure if there is some upper threshold where if it gets so inundating it just over-runs and submerges the whole region.  Think of it .. as though for a moment at apex, NOLA is the shore... 

That's what all this "looks like"  - it would be interesting to sit with a FEMA pro from that region and really get into the details of the envisioned scenarios.
