TROPICAL STORM ISAAC Discussion Thread #12

15-20 inches forecasted by the GFS for Nola!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I know it is looking worse for NO, so sorry, but for here in swla, it is looking better??

Yes, it is looking better for SW LA.

I sort of had the same question. I know that we are in a Hurricane Watch/Trop Storm Warning here in Vermilion Parish, but I was wondering if things are looking better for us or not. I understand that Isaac may move westerly after landfall - how far west and for how long? Anyone have any idea? Thanks in advance

thank you

AGH....it makes me so mad that the BILLIONS of tax dollars spent to protect ONE parish will force water into another parish.

Isaac's trajectory could push water up the Barataria Basin. JP's WB levee and the wall of shame across Hwy 90 between Avondale and Luling will force storm storm into the west bank of St. Charles.

It just makes me sick.

We are home to 53,000 residents. The nuclear power plant to provide power to NOLA and lots of petrochemical plants.

But we don't rank to get federal funding for levees.

THANK GOD Isaac isn't a 5. Maybe I'll get by with only 3-5' of water.

Channel 6 just said that it will slow down
