If there is nothing before... then just ask

Katrina came from a different directin to get into the GOM, she crossed across southern Fl from the east as a Cat 1 before entering the GOM, then actually dipped SW before making that big swing towards the MS/LA line...

One thing that is certainly similar, if nothing else, from simply a size perspective ONLY; is the wind field. Katrina had a huge wind field, moving a vast amount of water, with tremendous wave action on top. I remember clearly, when Katrina was still 300+ miles SE of NOLA, 50 foot wave heights were being reported in a wide area of about 30 miles, fomr end to end! That is when I knew some place was going to be in alot of trouble. 50 foot waves have to end up somewhere, especially when they are over 30 miles wide, and Katrina was still building.

True --- but I'm wondering about the conditions of the Gulf now, compared to the conditions that existed when Katrina went into RI on 8/28/05.

Re: ATL: ISAAC - Tropical Storm - Discussion
Do you think if this convection trend continues pressure may go down and winds may even go up at 11?

Just like Jon Snow..."I know nothing" except what I know, and most of what I know is gathered by the fine people of the NHC

Pressure will likely be down a few mbs with the next advisory.

The 1935 storm was very, very small in size compared to this, just for one major aspect. And there are a host of upper air and mesoscale conditions from 1935 that we can never know.

Forecast conditions in the Gulf are expected to be far from stable.
