Re: Category 4 Katrina Heads for the Coast

1) thanks for that additional sat image. I noticed that there were 2 addl images since the recon with the (extrap) 915mb reading. To me, it looks like the central circ got even cleaner and stronger in that additional hour.

2) Unbelieveable about the NO evac. Right now I estimate weather conditions will deteriorate starting around 3 or 4 pm. This is because she has increased in size and because she's moving faster. How long does he think he can wait before deciding people HAVE to leave? I guess there isn't anyone to tell him it should have been about two days ago.
