New Orleans has to worry about the storm surge. Water is what can really fuck up the city, not so much the wind.

Just got my new update.
It's expected to remain constant for the next 24 before turning just slightly to the northeast. New Orleans is expected to receive a dire hit.
Folks, this is ugly. This storm is huge, and will be catastrophic if it remains a cat.4 or escalates to a cat.5
Tennessee is expected to receive the remnants sometime Saturday, and if it continues to remain constant or grows again to a cat.5, we'll be feeling some nasty winds in excess of cat.1 (85 mph) strength.
I don't think this is hype. I think I'd be getting the hell out of Dodge.
