  1. I think Helene was downplayed by a lot of people which was crazy given how massive it was. That's the biggest factor when it comes to damage, size. Right now Milton is a small storm, we'll see if that changes later but a weakening hurricane of average to below average size in an area familiar with hurricanes will fare just fine. The impacts also change drastically if you go from TB to Ft. Myers.
  2. I don't forsee Milton being very impactful over FL. Should be considerably weaker than Helene and much smaller Also looks to track south of TB, which is great news. Florida will handle this with ease.
  3. Radiational cooling could be really strong this week due to the dryness Wouldn't be surprised to see 30s here.
  4. That's an ugly forecast from the NHC. They note intensity could be stronger too. I'm curious how large the storm will be because it's very small right now and that'll make a huge difference regarding surge impacts.
  5. Like with Helene the flooding/surge will be the story. Shouldn't be as large a storm so impacts will be over a smaller region.
  6. A stronger, larger storm will try to go more poleward. I do think Tampa could be in trouble but it'll be a close call.
  7. It is feast or famine. When the dryness breaks, it'll break hard.
  8. I could see a scenario where trough lifts out and storm gets stuck off the SE coast for a couple days until next trough picks it up. Still not sure if that would produce though
  9. Wind is more of a cool, aesthetic factor but yes the real culprit is almost always storm surge & flooding.
  10. Days and days of clouds but less than an inch of rain to show for it. We got easterly flowed into a slightly BN month. Next weekend should be really nice though, near 80F.
  11. November is the one month that can still be cold so there will be frosts before December.
  12. A lot of dreariness without much to show for it. Remains me of a warmer version of March/April. Models showing Gulf activity too. Wouldn't surprise me to see tropical activity preceding cooler weather next month.
  13. Too far north to get into the rains but too far south to escape the clouds
  14. Correct so if it happens to be near normal, that's still much warmer than a decade ago.
  15. It's ramping up now. Large CDO structure developing and wrapping around
  16. Given how fast it'll be moving north tomorrow, there's going to be some very strong winds on the east side. Tremendous surge potential even if it doesn't get stronger than a Cat 2.
  17. This is not going to rapidly intensify, it's far too big. I doubt it'll be much stronger than 100-105mph.
  18. This could be more impactful than the strong Cat 4-5 hits as of late. It's all about the size when it comes to tropical systems and this one is huge.
  19. Given its size it'll be tough to get much stronger. I'm skeptical it'll even get that strong. Maybe more Ike like
  20. Models wildly shifting run to run in under 4 days. No consistency whatsoever
  21. Since it's been so dry it probably means we'll get like 20" of rain in a 2-3 day timeframe
  22. It has another low developing, not sure I buy it. New GFS has gotten wetter. A very difficult pattern to forecast
  23. Unless a full scale pattern change occurs, aka PDO flips, it will always be disappointing. The only hope is for brief mismatch intervals.
