And in the vein of our discussion, anyone else find it interesting, that the 90% chance, is still there, in this evenings update?

On visible sat the circulation looks close to being closed.

There are numerous vortices right now. One is on the coast near Terrebone and another one about 100 miles SW of that one. That one is actually moving SW. Then there is the broad circulation affecting the metro area. There are more. I’m now focused on the rainfall. I guess there is still a chance the NHC center could do a little more before landfall but I doubt it. The swirls look closed but are void of significant convection. The true energy is onshore then E of NOLA. That’s how I see it. 1/4 inch rain now in 12 minutes. I’m about ready for this to end.

The circulation I was referring to is exactly where the NHC has the center marked so I assumed that is the center what there is of one.

been raining nonstop here in Destrehan for the past 3 hours now. Nothing too heavy, but that consistent kind of rain you'd expect with a tropical storm. Expecting we'll get 40 mph wind gusts in the morning and moderate rain until then.

I'm on generator but the cable internet is still working. Cool but unusual. I think its over but Entergy is forecasting an 8AM restore time with these "horrific" winds we're having

Good question. I haven't heard any thunder at all or seen any lightning.

Yeah man. I am agreeing with you. It was probably the lowest pressure but contained the minimal energy relative to the entire system. I certainly hope anymore threats this year are far less complicated. A strengthening TS 48 hours out and good conditions should scare the s**t out of any of us. Now down to 29.75 pressure and little wind and rain now. What a confusing mess.
