Yep, we are too! No rain though!

I'm no hurricane expert but it looks like Delta is going to take a similar path as Laura did? I'm sticking my neck out here and gonna say it makes land fall at Sabine Pass!
Also, check out the rotation of a disturbance in the Caribbean, just south of Jamaica.
Click on 120 frames and Band: 13 - IR clean longwave.

I will look at the link shortly but,
Regarding you "neck's wager"; I've gone to bed last night after looking at the wind forecast updates from 10PM and thought the same darn thing. The thought crossed my mind about what the chemical and refinery will be dumping enmass like they did during Laura....

Yuppers. I see that rotation, very clearly. Question I have is, will it develop and suck up that moisture from the storm cell right next to it in that area before it hits the yucatan this weekend? Will it disolve over the weekend? Okay.... More than one question....

I was thinking the same thing...it may not develop into anything?...but the way this season has gone...who knows!

Current radar looks like it may be Morgan City, Louisiana. Looks like it took a radical right turn at the coast.

Current rain bands look like everything is getting trained. Pretty much the entire state.

Well, looks like the eyes desolved already and it has kept that heavy right turn - to the tune of going far enough east of Alexandria & @sealer39 ... Thoughts y'all?

The eye has passed Pineville, La. We lost power at 6:45p yesterday. They had predicted about 4-6” of rain, I’m up to 14.5” so far. All the trees is striking range of my house are standing and the chicken coops are fine. With as much rain as we have had I’m really surprised that these red oaks are still standing. As I was typing this, something big just came down in the neighbors yard about 200yds from me. I could here it over the wind. It sounded structural. I’ll see after daylight what it was.
