BREAKING - Tropical Depression 13 set to become TS - Katrina event x10

I wasn't trying to throw it out there as 'first poster' or anything. I was just amazed at how apathetic people were to the subject.

Anytime. I'm monitoring the tornado threat right now. Flooding no doubt is the main concern but there is also a tornado threat.

After Katrina...if you don't GTFO of there...then you are doomed due to your own ignorance. I REALLY hope the idiots in gov. and Fema will step up and do the RIGHT thing this time around and not repeat the clusterfuck the world watched helplessly unfold over several days.

I felt horror at watching the people begging for water - the red cross not going in because the mayor, governor and fema said it was too dangerous and all the other shitty excuses they trotted out to cover up the total incompetency that was exhibited...

People - help your neighbors who may not have a car to get to safety and please take your pets...too many died - people and animals alike.

I wouldnt even comment on this if the models werent showing it stalling for nearly 5 days, that means strengthening, storm surge, and epic flooding..

For me I just noticed how bad it was.Last night it seemed to just be a little rain maker and not much to it so havent followed it today.I checked the weather channel and watched Jim C all in alert mode so this thread happened to be the first one I noticed when I looked on GLP.I think many are like me and just didnt realize it was serious.Thanks for posting about it.

TROPICAL DEPRESSION FORMS OVER THE CENTRAL GULF OF MEXICO...
...TROPICAL STORM WARNINGS ISSUED FOR PORTIONS OF THE NORTHERN GULF
COAST...
...
Louisiana has declared a state of emergency as it prepares for a tropical depression to bring up to 15 inches of rain over the weekend.

Get the hell out of the whole gulf region. The gulf is full of oil, that chemical corexit, and that biological agent" arch-microbes, that thing is a toxic soup that will be spread all over and destroy life.

and then the chance of a hurricane having time to form and hit them even more.Its going to get bad even at the best.

Water already starting to pile up in Lake Pontchartrain.

In 2009 Army core of engineers came out with this...detailing preparing for a 100 year storm.

If you look at flood maps of the area, a 100 year storm is 6' of water. These basins are going to be highly loaded...storm drainage won't be able to handle it, and the city will fill.

I just hope the rain is more gradual. The economy is fucked up the way it is...we don't need any domestic weather disasters.

hmmm, couldn't get the link to work

from bad to worse

wow , not good....

Ok good to know, i know they are generally smaller spin up 'naders but if one pops in the wrong spot it could be a big mess

Ohh i didnt think u were, u deserve some recognition for having it up though..

people are starting to take notice now though !,

Very good post, they need to start bussing people out tomorrow

They are trying to pump the canals already which is good but i dont think it will be quick enough

i am generally a doomer, but I hope the rain is slower too, these people have gone through enough already..

Sadly it looks like this is a worst case scenario, worse than katrina, because this thing can strengthen for days while wreaking havoc ahead of landfall

wow...

+5 to you sir

the gospel...

How many times are you going to post on your own thread. Stop trying to stir shit up noobie.

Let me say...

I wonder if the water level increase is due to the tide, low pressure and the wind, or fresh water flowing into the system?

Tho, I almost feel like that the second optician increase greatly.

thanks for the bump clown, and calling me a noobie ive been here since 2000 so go to hell u turd

there is light surge moving in already, its only just beginning tomorrow

Who's a noob...not I

Well god damn dude, stop giving the young lads fake doom. No doom will come of this, as much as i'd like it to happen... Doom like this simply doesn't pan out.

ok just like katrina wasnt doom? this is almost double the rain forecast that katrina had

cmon man just cause the doom isnt hitting you

Top it off with a new madrid quake and you have a doom sundae.
