  1. Numbers are going so fast because substations and main transmission lines are failing. Electric and telecommunications grids are taking a beating right now.
  2. GFS has this weird precip hole right over the metro. Wonder what 12z Euro will show.
  3. Looks like the Cape Coral Chiquita Lock #2 has been overtopped.
  4. Couple of the hurricane models trying to nude the 2nd US landfall further east and now as a Cat 1/2 hurricane.
  5. Storm surge M4.8ft Naples, FL. Appears to be a record.
  6. I'll go with 90mph sustained, gust to 110-120mph.
  7. We have such an array of tools to analyze tropical cyclone these days. Here's how things were done in 1973.
  8. The latest NHC discussion (#24 for future archival) is absolutely worth reading. Eric Blake talks about the worth of the hurricane hunters and Tampa Bay doppler radar. Wish I could post it but I'm mobile.
  9. Sarasota ASOS reported a wind gust to 53kt.
  10. 144kt flight level wind on the latest vortex data message
  11. Looks like latest recon may have found cat 5 winds in Ian.
  12. ProTip: turn the smoothing off. You'll see the finer features better.
  13. Watch the sun rise on Ian here: https://weather.msfc.nasa.gov/cgi-bin/basicLooper.pl?category=goeseastabimesoscale1&regex=00p64um&title=GOES-East ABI Mesoscale 1 - 0.64 um - Band 2&time_drop=show
