It's almost a Cat 5 at this point. 145 MPH sustained is I think about where Laura was at landfall in LA.

H.P. Hovercraft posted:rainfall associated with any given storm varies quite a bit depending on where you are, it's extremely local Right, the old system is kinda problematic while figuring out an effective new system that would better describe the potential damaging events would be extremely difficult and expecting people to actually understand more nuance and science-y stuff (even if it's at a 5th grade level) is unrealistic. I don't think we should go through the time/effort to design a new system, but it's still true that our current categorization scheme is not the entire story.

PostNouveau posted:Just gonna go gently caress up the ruins of Lake Charles Would it be better or worse to just double tap Lake Charles? I imagine a lot of folks are still evacuated and it's just going to knock down stuff that's already gotta be knocked down anyway, right? Or am I just completely wrong?

I imagine a lot of folks are still evacuated and it's just going to knock down stuff that's already gotta be knocked down anyway, right? Or am I just completely wrong? You might be right. There are tens of thousands who are still evacuees from the wreckage of the last one. The New Orleans mayor was talking in her press conference about making plans for the like, 12,000 Lake Charles people who are still holed up here if New Orleans has to be evacuated for this one (looking unlikely at this point).

poo poo is so hosed. There’s like over 10k evacuees in New Orleans alone. I walk by a handful of them every day going to/from work in the FQ. These are not folks who are well off. Not only are the facing the possibility of not returning home anytime soon, but apparently whatever aid they’re receiving is drying up, enough that a group of them held a press conference today asking the state for more help.

It doesn't seem like NO will have to evacuate but they could have some tropical storm force winds in that area depending on how the storm turns once it makes landfall Friday afternoon. Unfortunately it does seem like Lake Charles is going to get some kind of hit from this storm.

If the Biden Administration wanted to freak people out about climate change, they would officially re-draw the map of the U.S. because what Louisiana's coast actually looks like right now is pretty drastically different from what's on our maps. The sea has claimed a lot.

If a buoy is anchored to the sea bottom then how does it account for huge swells that would stretch out the anchoring? Does poo poo just break off and float away forever or what
