This loop clearly shows the WSW wobble. Looks like a drift to the west accompanied by a wobbling motion.

Just an amateur.

IR shortwave loop.

Billy Nungesser the Plaquemines Parish President reported on WWLTV that his house was moving and part of his roof was ripped off. He claimed it was very similar to Katrina, at least with the damage going on around him. Another couple got scared and had to move to a shelter after there house started tilting over.

Geez, that sounds pretty bad.

One of us misheard because I heard him say that residents of a mobile home in the area under mandatory evacuation said THEIR mobile home was moving (swaying) so they are following him out. He called them "followers"...

Where did you get that it was a mobile home? I don't remember him saying that. Although they were talking about damage in that mobile home park.

Between the vdm fixes @ 23:40z and 1:59z, 9.73mph speed. Definitely a slowdown, but neither a stall nor a crawl.

They just said on twc that it appeared to be a temp. stalll. I not sure of his name, but it is the guy that does the toranado potential.

Looking at Grlevel3, He's wobbling parallel to the coast. Wobble to the SW, Wobble to the West, Wobble to the NW, and now a wobbled back to the West.

I'm pretty sure King Billy doesn't live in a mobile home.

It wasn't him who lived in the mobile home. He claimed he went to his home..wind was blowing through his house where one wall had partially collapsed (maybe not his exact words) and that a couple who lived in a mobile home followed him out because their home was swaying.

Well TS winds have made it into my town, Gonzales, which is just south of Baton Rouge. Winds gusting up to 44mph the past 30 min.

Ya'll go check out the model thread. NAM just rolled out and shows a TX/LA hit.

I am very curious to see the updated track at the top of the hour. The NHC is definitely earning their pay with Isaac. They are doing are great job.

Wow, look how that eye has cleared out since 'landfall 1.'

Can anyone tell me where to find those cool wind field maps that are made occasionally? I guess they are called the wind field analysis or something like that.

Is this what you're asking for?

While that is cool, I was thinking of another product which i Know the NHC uses often in reanalysis, it basically shows the wind field dividing it into numerous 10 knot increments, people have brought it out for Isaac, but I just can't seem to find it.

Edit I found them at the Hurricane Research Division page.

Here is just a radar I've put together for personal use that can be used for the longer loops like some people were asking. 40 frames is as high as it will go but you can edit the other settings like zoom and such by changing the values in the actual url.

edit: be aware that loading that many frames takes a little bit to load, so if you are limited on the bandwidth you might hold off.

Nice loop. Looks like the eye is really tightening up.

So...people are saying the surge has already peaked ... is this accurate ? it's seriously peaked already? :S

Will probably peak tomorrow in high tide.

I don't understand how that could be...I thought I heard it would be worse tomorrow morning at high tide.
