Covert Contact already has well over a dozen live streams dedicated to tracking Hurricane Issac and it’s impact but we’ve just rolled out a New Orleans Monitor to give subsribers even more insight into this storm’s impact.

This monitor can be found under the “Events” section and will track any mentions of New Orleans, discussions about flooding in New Orleans (the primary threat posed by Issac) and any discussions about injuries or deaths. Subscribers should have no problem staying dialed in on this storm with a 7 Column Hurricane Issac Monitor, 3 Column Hurricane Issac Monitor, and general Hurricane and Tropical Storm monitor all available this evening.

Subscriptions to Covert Contact’s array of over 100 topic monitors and 350 live social media streams are available for only $10 per month.

We could be looking at a pretty significant hurricane once Issac gets into the Gulf of Mexico. This has been a difficult storm for forecasters to pin down and that unpredictability continues this morning with some of the models shifting further west. Here’s the latest discussion from the National Hurricane Center:

THE TRACK FORECAST BEYOND DAY 2 HAS BECOME PROBLEMATIC. DYNAMICAL MODELS DEPICT THE CYCLONE MOVING INTO A BREAK IN THE SUBTROPICAL RIDGE NORTH OF THE GULF COAST IN ABOUT 72 HOURS. HOWEVER THERE IS A LARGE SPREAD AMONG THE MORE RELIABLE TRACK MODELS. FOR EXAMPLE… THE ECMWF FORECAST IS ABOUT 300 N MI EAST OF THE GFS SOLUTION AT DAY 3. SINCE THE DYNAMICAL MODEL CONSENSUS HAS SHIFTED WESTWARD…THE OFFICIAL TRACK FORECAST IS MOVED A BIT TO THE WEST OF THE PREVIOUS ONE. THIS REQUIRES AN EXTENSION OF THE HURRICANE WATCH WESTWARD ALONG THE LOUISIANA COAST. IT SHOULD BE NOTED THAT THERE IS GREATER THAN USUAL UNCERTAINTY IN THE TRACK FORECAST.

In short, nobody knows where Issac is headed. Everyone on the Gulf Coast should be paying attention to this storm. Luckily, we have just launched a new 7 column Hurricane Issac Monitor to help you do just that. This monitor features live streams tracking:

• Any mentions of Hurricane Issac
• Hurricane Warnings
• Discussions about Hurricane Issac’s storm surge
• Discussions about Hurricane Issac’s winds
• Hurricane Issac damage discussions
• Mentions of deaths or injuries related to Hurricane Issac
• Mentions of the National Hurricane Center

If you want to know what’s happening – up to the second – with Hurricane Issac this monitor will do it for you.

It’s to early to predict the path of what will likely become Hurricane Issac but the models are worrying. We have rolled out a monitor to track mentions of the storm, the national hurricane center, and its potential impact on the GOP’s convention plans. Subscribers will find it on their “Events” menu.
