We always have to be careful with the possibility of seeing deep fake photos, etc. I have no clue what HARRP is, but will try to find info about it (at least the technology...not to find out if it's real or true or not). I do find the formations very odd and "too perfect", which is why I wanted others more knowledgeable to comment. Again, thanks. I ment to say that The photos probably are faked but Mistyped, oh well.

cheese007 Posted August 28, 2021 Share Posted August 28, 2021 Friend apparently lives in Mid-City neighborhood of New Orleans on the 2nd floor. Is that relatively "safe" all things considered? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The intolerance here is astounding. It's supposed to be a forum for discussion, not bashing. He explained that he has been a lurker for many years and is a noob. He was looking for information, not trolling. Jeez. Ffs. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OSUmetstud Posted August 28, 2021 Share Posted August 28, 2021 There's a large seeding operation in southern and central Alberta that's meant to decrease hail size. Even though I'm not sure it works, at least it gives me an out if my forecast for Calgary or Red Deer doesn't work out. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SandySurvivor Posted August 28, 2021 Share Posted August 28, 2021 Only one model takes this to CAT 4 now. Assuming the majority of models are correct this storm will not ever attain the strength or be as severe as Sandy was. Louisiana is going to luck out on this one. 1 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Prospero Posted August 28, 2021 Share Posted August 28, 2021 Just looked at the sats before I read the Ida storm thread. Eh, yea, not what I was expecting. NOT a Yucatan eye, but something there. Not perfect but maybe it was this afternoon. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Prospero Posted August 28, 2021 Share Posted August 28, 2021 I bet if I watch a five hour sat animation I will see random cold spots appear where solid hot convection should be happening. Of course random scientific explanations suggestion a dry air pocket from somewhere or some other weird reason why a perfect eye won't come together. Another Gulf storm with an eye disease. But its early and I'll watch. Plus I have hundreds of posts to read to catch up! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
buckeyefan1 Posted August 28, 2021 Share Posted August 28, 2021 I don't get why everyone has been expecting to see anything other than what this storm is currently doing. Other than consistently being on the right side of guidance, Ida has been performing as expected. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KPITSnow Posted August 28, 2021 Share Posted August 28, 2021 Ok sorry I posted it in the main thread, but wmsptwx downplaying this with every single post is starting to annoy the hell out of me. I don’t like weenies that scream “omg cat 5” but I also can’t stand constant downplaying when a lot of things point towards RI. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From crossing cuba, to dispelling the dry air, fighting a touch of shear and now fully wrapping a 25 mile closed eyewall, all while strengthening to a high end cat 2. During the day. Sigh...

Prospero Posted August 28, 2021 Share Posted August 28, 2021 This is why I love the banter. More opinions and observations, and passion. I agree Ida may reach its potential, but a Major by noon today faded away. And still weird issues in the convection around the eye all day that throw it off. Yet if this same storm was heading to the Yucatan the eye would be perfect totally surrounded by solid convection. We'd all be talking about that. Why do Gulf storms have breaks in the convection? Consistently. Tell me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
