Pressure down to 944.9 mb.

Its running 3 hours ahead of forecast. HWRF AND HMON 12Z had it at 945 and 941 at 6:00 pm today, without any further intensity.
NAM 12z had it forecasted at 941 at 6:00 pm headed to 908 at landfall.

My eyes could be playing tricks on me but is she turning North already?

That outer band is really starting to get some areas of rotation going. I count 3 tornado warnings now. I’m surprised the SPC hasn’t posted a Tornado Watch yet.

There is no doubt she's gaining latitude, approaching 28N quickly....

I had to look this up -- those 137-141kt readings are only about 100m up...

 

[Henry2326]

LEAVE NOW!!!

 

[Darklordsuperstorm]

6 tornado warnings up now!

[BufordWX]

Tornado warning for Baton Rouge now...

 

[Myfrotho704_]

Eye is really warming now, getting that legit buzzsaw look to it now, that eye clearing is just a sign that ----- gonna get more real, quite incredible to watch but also sickening

 

[Henry2326]

Uh Huh.....

 

[snowlover91]

I’m not seeing any signs of an ERC on radar or via recon data. This likely intensifies up until landfall like Michael and Harvey imo.
