Re: Category 5 Katrina Winds to 175MPH

My current landfall window continues at Pascagoula, MS on the left side and Navarre, FL on the right side, with the bulls eye along the Alabama-Florida border. But due to the size of this tropical cyclone the damage window will extend from Morgan CIty, LA in the west to Apalachicola, FL in the east on early Monday morning 08/29/05.

I'm now hearing of some mandatory evacuations being ordered along the Alabama coast eastward to the western Florida panhandle, so a horrific human catastrophe may be averted. If Katrina were to hold her present strength then we would be looking at an incredible storm surge of 15-20 feet, with some spots seeing 28-32 feet just to the right of the eyewall at landfall. Some of the surge may also reach the west coast of the Florida peninsula too.







Bullseye along the AL/FL border???? Hrmmmmm, do you have an enemy in the Florida Panhandle you are trying to scare?

VG, i think you need to explain a bit more about your theory as it contradicts every model, met i've heard thus far. Otherwise i think his post and this one (mine) should be deleted. Another reason being, the bullseye hitting Mobile/Pcola would basically be a close call for N.O. which unfortunately isn't going to be the case.
