This picture is still not the worse case scenario for NOLA.

This thing is going to produce "biblical" rains, as one forecaster said. Not fun.

Sarasota getting feeder bands and The Weather Channel said Sarasota and surrounding area could get possibly damaging winds from it. It looks like a lot of storms within the bands.
To: lainie
That thing has already turned radically northward and it looks to me like it's going to double back and hit Florida again.
Prayers for all potential victims.

This thing is going to produce "biblical" rains... The biblical rains will be the least of the problem with Ivan.

It hasn't arrived yet ... but the radar sure shows it's coming. Damn! I better duck.

Here are the major models from the Weather Underground site. They are converging well... and none of them point to a Florida strike! Note that some of the model runs are 16 hours old.

Good question. I picked Biloxi Bay, MS
Highs & Lows..
High 12:59 pm -- 1.67 ft.
Low 7:38 pm -- 1.36 ft.
Range 0.57 ft.
But it ranges from place to place so I don't know how to quantify it.

I'm just looking tides up. It looks like it will hit near the middle of the cycle from that data.

No Hurricane parties in Gulfport this week.
To: Miztiki
I don't think Ivan has moved east at all, has it? The closest I've seen it move east is north, and that's still not east, it's just not west. Why do they keep saying it's going to move east? Do they want Florida to get hit again or something?
The TWC showed a high pressure ridge spinning in a clockwise rotation off Atlantic, drawing IVAN up and eastward. Meanwhile they showed a strong front from the west acting like a wall bumping the storm away from Texas and western LA (this is shown by the sheer on the western side of the hurricane). In other words, the hurricane is driving slowly toward some point between FL panhandle to NOLA.
OTH, hurricanes have minds of their own. Prayer for Lili Part 2.

If the hurricane doesn't turn, it will hit NOLA dead on. Most tracks have it going along this path for around 6 more hours before turning north.

I would be very worried in NO. How did they come up with that eastern yellow line?

The high pressure sitting off the New England Coast should help it go north in time... BUT, Ivan is not being influlenced by it nearly as much as envisioned. He is basically in his own environment still and I would not be surprised to see him continue West of North for some time still.

If this thing hits NOLA dead on, the city will be destroyed and the Insurance Companies will be looking for ways not to pay out. Instead it will be the American Tax Payer rebuilding an area of 1.5 million people.

Good thing I didn't our stuff back into the back yard. It could nasty.
We've had nothing but a drizzle and some wind all day today. Now I'm hearing some big rumbles; local radar shows it's closing in quickly.
