Folks should read that discussion slowly and absorb what it's saying. This is an extremely dangerous storm.

Agreed. That 131 knot figure from the FSU superensemble is a 150 MPH wind on the storm. This is no joke.

I'm truly scared on this one, folks...

Yikes. I guess I should stop making "Katrina and the Waves" jokes.

You're right - unusually candid and blunt remarks:

"The hurricane is expected to be under a typical 200 mb anticylone...with a cyclonic circulation extending upward to that level. This is the typical pattern observed in intense hurricanes. In addition...Katrina is forecast to move directly over the warm loop current of the Gulf of Mexico...which is like adding high octane fuel to the fire."

Worth repeating again.

Every hurricane is dangerous as the people in South Florida have learned. This one certainly has a personality of her own. I hope I am wrong ,but after over 40 years of studying hurricanes,I have always believed that the last of Aug - first of Sept produces the worst storms Katrina is very dangerous.
