GFS= Good for S... :lol:

Frankly I don't see that storm moving up that quickly, although you never know.

I can't see the LLC, I don't know really where it is.

No Sunny they do not sound concerned at all. In fact, it should pass well to our easy and not be a Louisiana problem at all.

Yep. We may get some pretty good winds out of it. But I don't think they are expecting a whole lot more at this point.

The GFS may be right and it makes landfall at NOLA - but all the weather is east of the center.

I will even see less than you, Sunny, since I am west of the city. Terrebonne Parish should not see a thing out of Arlene. Sun will probably shine on us. It is not like it would matter to me anyway, because I have to work all weekend straight through. They will not close for a measly tropical storm. It has to be at least cat 3 or above for them to even consider closing. Arlene is just a reminder that we are in for a long season. And just get your supplies ready because when the cape verde season starts, that is when the real worry will kick in for coastal folks.

Yeah cajungal your right this is good good time to check everything and make sure your prepared. Your employeer sounds like alot down here. They don't give you time off unless the building is caving in, and at that it's only so you can not sue if you get hurt.

I work in One Shell Square. Shell has their own met who advises them. When they close the building, they have to let us go. Building policy. Security reasons. Boy were they ticked two years ago when we got Izzy and then Lily the very next week!

Last year for Ivan, they actually ESCORTED my boss out of the building because she was still there working :eek:

If anything, we may have this recent (and MOST welcome) stretch of daily sea breeze thunderstorms shut down this weekend, as we will probably experience subsidence on the western side of Arlene, leaving us high, dry, and hotter than we've been for the last week and a half.

You folks will get something, but the Panhandle of Florida will get the worst of it, once again.

LOL dh. FWIW, the European/ECMWF site is back up. The most recent data I can get is 12z which still took the system in west of New Orleans and doesn't appear to tighten it all that much (maybe close to landfall). It has the tendency toward a left bias when it doesn't sniff out development. Here's the link (if it works).

I'm still thinking Florida Panhandle. No evidence of a westerly turn, don't think the ridge to the east will stear Arlene to La or Miss.......MGC

I'm in the Prairieville/Dutchtown area. My wife called me about 45 minutes ago (I'm still at work) and said I should hold off coming home. The noise has stopped to my SE (I'm up in Baton Rouge) so I guess it's done for the night. Heard y'all got hammered...was it actually a tornado or t-storm straight-line winds? That's the second time in a week or so that Gonzales has been nailed...I saw the EA bleachers last week. Quite a mess! :eek:
