10AM advisory.  Pretty much speaks for itself.  Let's all hope and pray this thing now rapidly weakens and spares as many people inland as possible.  As far as the larger towns in that area, seems the ones getting the brunt seem to  be Houma, Thibodeaux, and Morgan City.   Storm has slowed down from 16 mph to 13 mph.  That is not a good trend.

Landfall looks to be about an hour or so away.  Based on radar imagery, looks like Terribonne Parish between Morgan City and Houma.  IF the path holds true, the most direct town in path appears to be this one.  Dulac, Louisana, with a most recent population of 2,458

This hurricane is a monster and as you had posted up thread, it could pack a punch of a Cat 5!

I have mentioned a number of towns and areas that are going to see likely catastrophic effects.  If you have family or friends in these areas, please closely monitor their well being.

Initial landfall in the next few minutes.  Based on NOLA radar, it looks to be a marsh penninsula at the terminus of La. State Hwy 1.

And...   the area of Grand Isle (mentioned above) looks like it might be on the edge the NE quadrant of the eye wall. A true worst case scenario. The article earlier said people stayed.  I sure hope not, because they are on a barrier island facing 15 foot storm surge and 150 mph winds.  I fear the worst.

11 AM Final update before landfall....  Looks like peak strength may be 150 mph, just 6 mph off making Cat 5. It could still strengthen while in the marshes, but I am guessing it has topped.

SOUTHEASTERN LOUISIANA...

An elevated NOAA C-MAN station at Southwest Pass, Louisiana, 
recently reported a sustained wind of 89 mph (143 km/h) and a wind
gust of 104 mph (167 km/h).

Within the past hour, sustained winds of 44 mph (70 km/h) and a
gust to 60 mph (96 km/h) was reported at Lakefront Airport in New
Orleans.

A NOAA National Ocean Service tide gauge in Shell Beach, Louisiana,
recently reported a water level of 6.0 feet above mean higher high
water, which is an approximation of inundation in that area.

A NOAA National Ocean Service tide gauge at Bay Waveland Yatcht
Club, Mississippi, recently reported a water level of 5.4 feet
above mean higher high water, which is an approximation of
inundation in that area.

They're reporting on the Weather Channel that the storm doesn't appear to be slowing down ....it's still moving at 15 MPH.  This, according to them, is good news.

NHC reported 13 mph earlier, but realize that these storms as they approach the coast have a tendency to wobble which can sometimes fool the forecasters in reporting forward speed.  The million dollar question now, is how the storm will respond to the Bermuda high.  Sometimes these storms as they start dealing with latitudinal corrolis effects and curving around pressure gradients will tend to slow and turn.  How that high interacts with the storm will tell how the forward speed reacts.  Ideally (speed wise) the storm will continue it's 315ish vector and slowly turn north.  If we see a sudden 0/360 instead, I'd start getting concerned with slowing and stalling.  One point that has been missed.....   Early in the track, the NHC predicted a northward turn generally about a 100 miles off shore.  It didn't happen. 
Though not forecasted, I would not be surprised to see a more westward tendency toward track that we are seeing.  Does that put Alexandria in play?  Not really sure, it will be that drastic.

The very dangerous northern eyewall of Hurricane Ida is moving onshore along the southeast Louisiana coast, according to the 12 p.m. EDT update from the National Hurricane Center.

The eyewall is the most dangerous part of a hurricane, which contains the highest winds.

The storm continues to pack winds of 150 mph with higher gusts and is still an extremely dangerous, Category 4 hurricane.

The center of Ida was located around 25 miles from Grand Isle, Louisiana. A wind gust of 104 mph was recently reported at Southwest Pass, Louisiana.

Ida will be making landfall over the next hour or so when the center of the eye is halfway over the coast. Extreme winds and surge will accompany landfall over the next several hours.

Hmmm...  looking at the NHC forecast.  They have it at 7PM at just west at NOLA.  At 7AM they have it just east of Natchez, MS.  That's about a 100 miles movement over a 12 hour period or....   estimate of 8 mph

WDSU in NOLA's radar loop gives an excellent view of the storm.  At least until it gets knocked out by the storm

Those exact cooridinates put Grand Isle on the NE Corner of the eyewall.

reconnaissance aircraft data is 930 mb (27.46 in).

Within the past hour, sustained winds of 43 mph (69 km/h) and a

Yesterday, i mentioned the fact there was a pretty strong dry tongue of air mass AR-OK-TX.  I am thinking that may be why we are seeing less than normal precipitation on the west side of the storm.  Granted the east is aliway wetter, but outside the area of the storm, but there really isn't alot of strong rain bands on the west side
