can't say that I disagree hugh. I would say my very untrained eye is seeing the stronger storm tightening again and since it grew during eye wall repl it look more northward. but I'm an idiot when it comes to real weather so bear with me
Me too - but as I said I know what I have heard on TV from "weather guessers" if you will - and putting two and three together I get six and a potential turn SOON.

Yeah, check out the explosion of convection on this IR SAT. The has really expanded to the north and east over the last several hours. This looks like one massive storm - may be our 21st century Camille.

Well on wv sat images it looks like is reorganizing quite rapidly.
Looking at conditions on buoy 42003 as the hurricane moves past, south of it. This buoy is located NW of the storm, at 1.5N and 0.5W relative to the storm's current position (could someone work out how many miles away that is). Wave heights have averaged over 20 ft since early this morning and are currently approaching the 25 ft mark as windspeed has been increasing (up to around 40kts steady now). The waves will probably be even higher shortly, as the storm is directly S and the wind shifts to due E.
It looks like the only other buoy before landfall will be 42001, tomorrow, because 42041 is not in service anymore.
Edit - Oh WLOX has an excellent online hurricane center for resources for MS, and also tracking map that shows buoy locs and the shortcuts to the NOAA page for each.

No one has mentioned the pressure on that recon yet, and it is still not posted anywhere on that I can find.

and it still has all day tomorrow at the very least to intensify even further. I suspect even if it makes landfall at N.O., we may get hurricane force winds in the Panhandle as huge as it is becoming. Not 140+, but 75 is possible in gusts maybe.
Edit to reply to Reaper:
I do not find anything "cool" about the stadium effect in a hurricane, personally!

That does not mention anything about a 119 knot wind, though... which is the report I was asking about.

Guess they didn't sample over the eye... wonder why it's extrapolated... Maybe it's extrapolated from flight level, but generally it doesn't say this.

Tell me that's just the short term part of the loop and nothing else. I hope that's just a wobble.....

Oh, you want the truth? Ok, it's just an artifact of being too far from the radar for a reliable track to be obtained.

Thats just the remainder of the old eyewall being, I guess, filtered out. Doesn't look like it has any implications on the overall direction of the storm, though.

It's been mentioned that due to the distance from the tower, that radar data is at an angle that makes motion unreliable.
Take anything you ascertain from it with a large helping of NaCl

Hugh, I am unsure of the exact website where you can find that at, but the reading is in another website's forum.

Hit control f and then type in 119. It will take you to the correct post.

Watching the streaming coverage of WWL-TV and they are saying that the contra-flow of the interstates at 5pm ET and watching the traffic cams from NoLa, it looks like that the folks there are getting out now. Major traffic delays it looks like......
