New Orleans was a DISASTER in the WAITING ROOM for years. A REAL wolf was not even needed for the job ..The Lake and Outdated Levies and Gates were ready to give out after 2 FULL and Non Stop days of rains, never mind a 'Cane.

Inneficcient Politicians let that MESS happen There...No Doubt

Downgraded to a TS. MSM deflated. They wanted a story. Would have been the nail in the coffin for 45.

Tropical Storm Isaias Discussion Number 19
NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL AL092020
500 PM EDT Sat Aug 01 2020

"The last data received from a previous Air Force Reserve
reconnaissance aircraft, along with recent satellite and radar
imagery, indicate that Isaias has weakened to a tropical storm due
to a combination of shear, dry air and interaction with Andros
Island earlier today."

"The initial motion estimate is 315/09 kt. After making a slight
west-northwestward jog a few hours ago after convection
significantly weakened, Isaias appears to have returned to its base
northwestward course. The new NHC model guidance is tightly packed
but has shifted slightly westward, with some of the more reliable
models now showing landfall along the east-central Florida coast in
about 24 hours."

"A combination of Isaias moving over the warm Gulfstream waters
during the convective maximum period and increasing frictional
convergence due to land interaction with Florida should lead to an
increase in deep convection near and over the center, as shown by
simulated satellite imagery from the ECMWF model. As a result,
Isaias is forecast to regain hurricane status tonight, as shown by
the HWRF and HMON model fields. By 36 hours and beyond, the global
models are in good agreement that an approaching mid- to upper-level
trough will increase southwesterly vertical wind shear, which
should result in gradual weakening until Isais becomes an
extratropical cyclone in about 96 hours."

I’m sure the region’s politicians want a distraction from COVID talk too.

This storm was a dud norm just i typed out on here for days. FL will get jack just like i typed out on Sat. Shear dear is blowing all the heavy rain jane well to the east of the center. So this one is done. All it did was make it much hotter with sinking air blare on the west side of the system and Tampa broke a record hi sly of 98f. I have had no rain all summer just as i typed out on here months ago as this will be a record dry summer and that is a bummer. Just 4" total since june.
