turtlehurricane Posted August 29, 2021 Share Posted August 29, 2021 So even though the Jokko guy has said some incorrect things, he is positioned in outer eyewall right now, and in perfect spot to get hit with inner eyewall shortly, at which point he really could really see those 150+ mph winds. https://www.severestudios.com He's in a better position than any other chaser. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GaWx Posted August 29, 2021 Share Posted August 29, 2021 These are the noon CDT conditions in N.O. showing gusts already to 61 mph. These will likely get much worse there during the next few hours. For a comparison, Betsy, which hit N.O. very hard, was 12 mb higher at 942 at about the time of landfall to the south vs the 930 of Ida in about the same location on a similar trajectory:1200 PM CDT SUN AUG 29 2021 CITY SKY/WX TMP DP RH WIND PRES REMARKS N.O.

thunderbird12 Posted August 29, 2021 Share Posted August 29, 2021 Two New Orleans ASOS sites (KNEW and KMSY) have reported gusts to 55 kt and 53 kt (respectively) within the last hour. Galliano (KGAO) in Lafourche County gusted to 68 kt at 1715 UTC. That site may come close to being within the eyewall over the next hour or so. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully he makes it out alright, I’m presuming elevation probably isn’t more than 10-20 ft about sea level where he’s at Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jojo762 Posted August 29, 2021 Share Posted August 29, 2021 Before this oil rig news gets too far, we should add that this is only being reported by a small independent source and has not been properly vetted and/or verified yet. 5 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jpljr77 Posted August 29, 2021 Share Posted August 29, 2021 The Jokko guy just said 153 mph sustained and max gust of 177, which seems more reasonable that some of his earlier statements. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I really wish SE LA maps would agree on what's land and what's water. Maybe Just declare the whole thing swamp? Must have been almost impossible to navigate even with GPS.
