Re: SHIPS model

No, I don't buy it. Landfall is in LA according to NHC predictions (see below).

And news stories on the web always lead with the new info, then repeat the older paragraphs, appending them.

So that statement referencing MS landfall reflects something different than the current NHC projected path.

This was from 10am Sat NHC discussion:

"THE OFFICIAL FORECAST REMAINS CLOSE TO THE MODEL CONSENSUS...CALLING FOR LANDFALL IN SOUTHEASTERN LOUISIANA IN 48-60 HR."

From the 5pm Sat NHC discussion:

"THE TRACK CALLS FOR LANDFALL IN SOUTHEAST LOUISIANA IN A LITTLE UNDER 48 HR."

From 8am this morning:

"NO CHANGES TO THE TRACK...HAVE BEEN MADE."
