'Murica! (107 Viewers)

The Wilma correlation isn't a bad one. I know some of the models are showing wind sheer and dry air coming into play as landfall approaches, but it's not a guarantee. Looks like the track is more or less the same as last night with a landfall between Tampa and Fort Myers. It will still have time to shift though.

The really scary thing is the surge potential as outlined by Eric in this tweet. Even if it weakens before landfall, the damage will still be done with all the potential energy shoving the water around before landfall.

Pressure already 935mb and 155mph in just 12 hours. Lightning blowing up in the eye. That's really explosive and not a good sign at all.





It's the modern flat earth movement. The sad thing is, these dipshits are only trying to destroy our infrastructure and ability to predict and respond to weather disasters. If it was up to them, they would knock down all doppler radar towers, ban NOAA and FEMA, and pretty much do nothing in the event of a catastrophe. That's why it's difficult for me to care about some of these people - they don't deserve help.

If my house gets destroyed i want this storm to be #1

gonna be pissed by anything less than the best

897mb central pressure (sub 900 is fucking insane)
180mph winds
Strongest Atlantic cane in 20 years

I just saw this too

Very cool, gathering critical data.

 

[Hust]

Is it supposed to weaken as it approaches the coast? Like when does it stop gaining strength?

It should be reaching potential soon.

Then eye wall replacement cycle will begin. As it heads towards the coastline, there should be sufficient wind sheer to spread out the wind field which should weaken it to a 3 or 4, but we’ll see.

This looks like some sort of super Typhoon only seen in the pacific

You don't make it to the CL final just to lose on a Kai Havertz goal.

You will have the best storm, the greatest storm in human history. No one will have seen a storm like this.

Not looking good folks. Still tracking towards Tampa.

30+ miles of bumper to bumper traffic going north. I don’t remember seeing this many people evacuating. Floridians are so used to hurricanes they usually don’t take it too seriously, not this time.

 

[U Picciriddu]

Good luck guys

 

[Bjerknes]

Oh boy, this isn’t good. HMON model did well with Helene as well.

Is it safer to be in a high rise in a hurricane of this severity?

H5 = cat5? As in this projection has it not weakening at landfall?

 

[Bjerknes]

Based on this model, yes. Low end Cat 5 at landfall. Hopefully overdone.

Not really. Windows are going to break easily. The only option is moving away from the coast.

Maybe for flooding, but with such wind everything is a projectile. Now look at all this ammunition from the last hurricane:

 

[Enron]

The lineman crews from my office were diverted to Florida yesterday. Everyone is expecting this to be a doozy.

 

[AFL_ITALIA]

Hit category 5 again.

 

[Bjerknes]

Damn, the official track moved a little South. Looks like Sarasota is now the direct target. That sucks, I really like that town.

Would much rather see this thing slam just north of Tampa tbh.

 

[ALC]

That sucks, I have family in Bradenton which is basically Sarasota.
