I can't stand watching these newscasts. For days we've been talking about the possibility of Isaac moving right to the coast and stalling while steering currents collapse. Bob is talking about this like it's something brand new.
Isaac will not do what the NHC forecast is calling for.
Hey, new here, but have been reading the forums for the last couple of days. Wanted to say thanks for all the information y'all have been giving.
Sky, I was watching Bob Breck and it sounds like he's saying Isaac may go south-ish? He also commented about Ponchatoula, which is where we are, and I was wondering, are we..basically, out of the woods here?
If it HAS stalled, with so much of the center still over water\wetlands, gonna continue to strengthen? Whats your thoughts?
That is a real possibility I'm afraid to say. Current pressure is 968mb. We'll see if it drops any further.

It looks like on radar he may have taken a little southwest jog, but no confirmation from recon. Recon has confirmed and the NHC has acknowledged it, that he has pushed west back over water.
For tonight, in Ponchatoula, I think we're ok as I do not think Isaac will move northwest as predicted. Now, if he moved west along the coast, and then north inland, that's when Ponchy would get the worst weather because then Ponchy would be in the northeast quad.
BTW, I live in Ponchy

Also the pressure is equal to a Cat 2 hurricane, the only reason the winds had not reach that level was the entraining of dry air prevent strong storm near the to allow the FLW to filter down to the surface. That is not happening any more so if stays over water winds could continue to increase without the pressure dropping.

Zack Fradella: Yea, Lezak had a paper peer reviewed and published a year or so ago.
Nov 5, 2022 9:03:24 GMT -6
stormydds: Thanks for your response. I felt that is the case. that's too bad. Has there been any peer reviewed papers on the LRC hypothesis?
Nov 4, 2022 14:01:51 GMT -6
Zack Fradella: Not sure, the LRC is something that takes a lot of work to follow and keep up with. It's not as easy as looking at the parameters and making a forecast. This deters many from even giving it a chance. Also, there is some doubt from the weather world.
Nov 4, 2022 3:38:49 GMT -6
stormydds: Zack, a friend had a meeting in Lafayette which Rob Perillo spoke.He asked him why the LRC is not used to forecast hurricanes by NOAA.His answer was that Lezak won't share the info.I saw the podcast you and David made with Gary.He seemed open.What gives?

PinkFreud - Nola FQ: Been unblocked. Dylan says that the station took major damage, so no idea when they'll even be able to stream again, or be on the air. Hopefully, they will at least let their employees deal with their own property issues!

PinkFreud - Nola FQ: According to another met on twitter, the kitten was rescued by a producer who's adopting it. Of course that hasn't stopped the angry mob, with torches and pitchforks, who are insisting that it's a lie.

nolachic: Pink - he's probably blocking people he doesn't personally know to keep his cell charged and to get his head straight, and I'm sure he is beyond exhausted.

SKYSUMMIT: I sent him a message yesterday as well, but he hasn't seen it.

PinkFreud - Nola FQ: Oh hell, I meant for that to be a message!

PinkFreud - Nola FQ: Dylan is taking a beating on Twitter. I just tried to send him a message of support, since we've been following each other for years, and HE BLOCKED ME!!!!!! Somebody who can get to him needs to do so, pronto!!! I'm very worried about him.
