Right now it is 4:58 AM here in Lafayette Louisiana and the wind is at about 10 MPH sustained and every once in a while I can see a 20-30 MPH gust come blowing through. It is raining slightly and the way it looks on radar there could be alot more rain coming our way.

I hope everyone else is doing okay. CAN SOMEONE AROUND GRAND BAY ALABAMA TELL ME FIRST HAND HOW IT IS OVER THERE Thanks

I've been waiting on GDIL1's 5am report and when it came...no windspeeds. I think the anemometer broke when the eyewall hit.

If you look at the 0715Z wv sat image, it looks like that outer band starting in the NE came around intact, and then contracted towards the center and filled in that dry area to produce a symmetrical shape again (0915Z).

The size of this storm is so incredible. If the remaining eyewall did not disintegrate further, and stayed the same size, and the storm went due N until LA/MS landfall...the west eyewall would be in NO and the east eyewall over east Bay St Louis. The next larger concentric band would range in diameter from the west end of Lake Ponchatrain to Pascagoula.

Edit -- The 6am advis mentioned that 47 ft wave height on buoy 42040!

I'm not in Grand Bay but in N Mobile. And here we have a sustaind winds of about 40 with gust up about 60. Raining lightly. Winds are out of the ENE. So we are in for the long haul.

deteriorating....gusts to at least 50.... [Re: Hurricane Fredrick 1979]
      #51991 - Mon Aug 29 2005 10:58 AM

Kinda wonder when the power will go out. Hope it holds....but the gusts are pretty intense. In fact...it's gusting more now than when Ivan came in...Ivan hit to the east of us...

right side naughty side......

should get 75 plus soon....

wonder what New Orleans will be like after the storm passes. Water being forced in from the east to west...

Looks like KATs sliding off to the N-NE and will skim the eastern side of the LA marshes on her way to Gulfport/Biloxi. Rick, you should be getting some hurricane force conditions within the next hour or two.

Landfall [Re: Ron Basso]
      #51994 - Mon Aug 29 2005 11:10 AM

Fox News is confirming landfall in Grand Isle, LA

Looks like N.O. Still has power for now but as they were doing a live feed, trees started falling all around them.

Thank you!

That is so cool. I turned it on just in time to see someone broadcasting live from Ocean Springs in Jackson Cty MS! They had very good graphics on the storm surge and wave heights.

Looks like that station is in Jackson MS.

7am - The gov of MS talked about how they are already having flooding issues in Jackson County and the peak of the storm is hours away. They said 24ft storm surge in Bay St Louis, and the main brunt of the storm winds from there to Biloxi. They also mentioned the NE movement of the storm.

First Reports from NOLA [Re: Ron Basso]
      #51997 - Mon Aug 29 2005 11:27 AM

All the nets are reporting that power is out in the Superdome. They are relying on Generators, but lack Air Conditioning. Fox is reporting that power has gone out in the French Quarter.
