Joe Bastardi's site is a must read...because it was so close to land, he predicted it would cause a pressure differential, and the hurricane would steer itself into land more than most thought....then it would emerge in the Bay of Campeche...grow, and do the loop. look at the projected path on the weather channel and you will see agreement with that.
Category 2 or weaker...then explode back to a 4-5...and it will start it ascent into the land of misery. If it hits New Orleans...as a 4-5...you will have the greatest natural disaster in the history of the U.S. New Orleans will be covered in 20 feet of water....the levies are not designed for that sort of thing, ya know.
yeah, I would really be nervous now...all of us...it will be a real wierd week.
The storm is also projected to double in size...this could really be a bad one...I mean...the worse thing that could happen is to get over in the warm Bay of Campeche...then head north..
