I saw yesterday a more defined eye on this storm from the same
satellite, so the storm has weakened, and it's become less organized
over the past 18-20 hours. But still heading for Texas.. if it takes a
sudden turn to the north, which these storms frequently do, it heading
right for New Orleans again right now.

May not even need to strike too close to NO to cause problems with surge and
rainfall - and local news was saying there are other towns with worse levee
protection than NO in the strike areas.....
