It's not looking good for New Orleans. They already had a flash flood emergency this morning and PTC #2 is still looming. I can't comment on the accuracy of this, but the NWS page shows the Mississippi River forecasted to crest at levels not seen in 90+ years. I wonder if the Army Corp of Engineers will take proactive measures to mitigate the potential of catastrophic flooding? There's probably not a whole lot they can do with the pre-existing flooding occurring...NOLA needs this storm to continue to track Westward through the N Gulf into TX or they are in serious trouble. I believe they can open morganza.

3KM NAM shows a cat 5 hurricane striking the central Louisiana coast with Barry. A little overdone don't you think? Then again we have seen these rapid intensification storms before, Charlie in 2004 rings a bell, but the system will have to stay small for that to really happen. I’m guessing maybe somewhere in the middle maybe a low cat 2 or 3. What do you think?

Will the remnants of the storms kick off anything north of 70/64? Looks questionable.

Looks like wagons south based on current radar trends. Anybody seeing anything that could trigger development on the north side of the precip shield?

Southern flank of that storm really blew up as it approached Waterloo. Had a tiny bit of pea sized hail and it poured. Kiddos had to get out of the pool. Winds seemed to be 30mph peak is my guess. Was not severe criteria at my house which was perfect since the warning box ended just north of my house by maybe a mile or two.
