I will be disappointed if we do not host a tropical storm in 2020 here in Tampa Bay. I know that is sick, but this is 2020!!
-
-
This year we have not even been in a single warning. That kind of makes it scary for us! 2020 is not over yet!
-
Big change from not so many hours ago:
-
Doubt we will see anything from here for a while. We have sats to watch. In time some pictures will show up.
-
Plus without reliable cellular or internet access, why be there. Videos uploaded days later would not have the views. From what I can tell there are no weather stations to see.
-
927 beats Felix.
-
They've been impressive with the tracks this year. See last Thursday evening:
-
It's a beauty
-
Funny, when I watch the sat for 200 frames, when it stops I see the swirl go backwards. I don't think that has ever happened, and believe me I have stared at many 200 frame animations in my life.
-
I'm doing now here what I swore I would not be doing tomorrow night.
-
Why not. It's not over until the fat airplane sings.
-
Felix was 929mb and 150-knots. I'll gamble on November 2020 outperforming September 2007 in the same area. 911/160

Oh shit is getting weird all right, not just here.
-
200 frames

Wobbling east. Yea I know, just a wobble. I remember some years ago I heard when a storm gets strong enough it starts to decide its own path. Was that an urban legend?
-
My guess is the odds are that this is not the last storm of the season.
-
Another jog to the south...
-
It appears they did evacuate as much as possible based on a Sunday news report: https://ticotimes.net/2020/11/01/nicaragua-declares-preventive-alert-as-tropical-storm-eta-threatens
-
The larger of the three islands that Eta is soon to pound is Miskito Cay. It has people living on it. The official website says this, "The Miskito Cays were strongly affected by the devestating Hurricane Felix. Currently, tourism in this area is hardly possible, as the local community is still recovering." https://vianica.com/go/specials/24-miskito-cays-nicaragua.html Scary

Have we ever lost a Hurricane Hunter plane in a storm?
-
Any bets we are here in December discussing an active 2020 hurricane?
-
If this stays out over the water...oh my!
-
Hopefully Puerto Cabezas rebuilt stronger after Felix and might be lucky enough to be on the south side of the storm so the wind and surge will not have much impact. No chasers will be there I am sure. And news will take a while to get to us. So landfall will be all about sats and estimates. Maybe some weather updates, but we may not even see those. Of course the floods in the mountains and subsequent mud slides are a nightmare always.

Crazy thing is, I could stare at that all day. Edit; This better though... https://weather.cod.edu/satrad/?parms=meso-meso2-sandwich-200-0-50-1&checked=map&colorbar=undefined
