(1) IMO #HurricaneBarry's NOLA impact will be FAR WORSE than forecast.
Cat 1 vs TS label only means WIND SPEED - which is largely irrelevant in this case.
The VOLUME OF WATER that will come in exceeds what the barriers/pumps can handle.
River already high, ground sodden.

(2) I would love it if my above prediction turns out to be wrong. Pre-disaster talk that under- or over-estimates the impact can cause problems in future disasters. Responsible people try to get it right.
(3) Read this article to see why I am extra worried about NOLA this time.

#TropicalBarry still on target to be #HurricaneBarry by Friday and projected west wobble is wobbling a bit more westerly.
