.STORM INFORMATION...
AT 5 PM CDT...THE CENTER OF TROPICAL STORM ISAAC WAS LOCATED NEAR
LATITUDE 26.4N...LONGITUDE 86.2W. THIS WAS ABOUT 490 MILES
EAST-SOUTHEAST OF CAMERON LA...OR ABOUT 380 MILES EAST-SOUTHEAST
OF MORGAN CITY LA. STORM MOTION WAS NW OR 305 DEGREES AT 12 MPH.
STORM INTENSITY WAS 70 MPH.

.SITUATION OVERVIEW...
WHEN MAKING DECISIONS...DO NOT FOCUS ON THE EXACT FORECAST TRACK.
ISAAC IS EXPECTED TO CONTINUE TO MOVE TOWARD THE WEST-NORTHWEST WHILE
SLOWLY STRENGTHENING TO A CATEGORY TWO HURRICANE BEFORE LANDFALL IN
SOUTHEAST PORTIONS OF LOUISIANA. CURRENTLY THE FORECAST IMPACTS
CONTAIN SUSTAINED WINDS OF TROPICAL STORM FORCE ACROSS SOUTH
CENTRAL AND EAST CENTRAL SECTIONS OF LOUISIANA WITH HIGHER GUSTS.
A SLIGHT WOBBLE OR JOG TO THE WEST WOULD BRING HIGHER WINDS WEST
AND THEREFORE TROPICAL STORM AND HURRICANE WATCHES REMAIN IN
EFFECT AS WELL.

A STORM SURGE OF 2 TO 4 FEET IS EXPECTED FROM INTRACOASTAL CITY TO
THE TERREBONE AND SAINT MARY PARISH LINE. THIS MAY CAUSE WATER TO
COVER PORTIONS OF HIGHWAY 317 ON THE WAY TO BURNS POINT. IN
ADDITION WATER MAY COVER SOME STREETS AT TIMES IN CYPREMORT POINT
AREA.

...STORM SURGE AND STORM TIDE...
IT IS STILL TOO EARLY TO DETERMINE THE EXACT HEIGHTS OF COMBINED
