Stormsfury Posted August 29, 2021 Share Posted August 29, 2021 galliano, LA is in the moat right now. jokko is obviously reporting in kilometers.. the conversion makes sense to miles from his numbers. Galliano, LA had an 11mb pressure fall in 1 hour. 29.00" (982mb) at noon CDT to 28.67" (971mb) at 1pm CDT 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Extreme wind to miss New Orleans to west. Expand No, it means he’s not in the inner eyewall yet. 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NorthHillsWx Posted August 29, 2021 Share Posted August 29, 2021 Idas radar and satellite presentation are just disgustingly pretty for a high end hurricane over an hour after landfall.

STxVortex Posted August 29, 2021 Share Posted August 29, 2021 On 8/29/2021 at 6:24 PM, Moderately Unstable said: I would frankly be surprised if he's even hit 100. Lots of stuff starts flying once you hit triple digit winds. It's very much "obvious". One easy way to tell--the deciduous trees he's been filming are not toppling over, or even swaying wildly. Those tree types don't handle wind well--palm trees evolved the way they did specifically to handle wind. He's barely seen hurricane strength yet. He will, and he will quickly learn what real strong winds actually look like. Expand Those are mostly mesquite and maybe some live oaks, about the toughest trees there are. Check out the ones around Rockport and Lamar, TX. Lots of them are bent and twisted, but healthy. The good citizens of Rockport made a helluva racket when some developers wanted to cut down some groves of them that had been there forever. The developer mostly lost. Although the HEB grocery did get built, but the parking lot is full of trees. That HEB shows in a lot of Hurricane Harvey pictures. I actually took a nap there as Harvey approached after securing my boat. Then I got out just before it hit, under similar, but lesser, conditions as Jokko. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

das Posted August 29, 2021 Share Posted August 29, 2021 Now that the storm is ashore, a slightly banter-ish comment: that WebCam in Grand Isle deserves the storm chaser of the year award.
