  1. The CMC is the first to show a real storm. CMC was overdone on the westward movement of Ian and Fiona, that maybe what allows it to escape the ULL on this run.
  2. Just hope it will be over by Thursday day 6 of this mess.
  3. Ian was 47TJ while Charley was only 7TJ. Also Ian was moving at about 8mph while Charley was moving close to 20. That combined with size made a big difference in storm duration. https://www.rms.com/blog/2018/10/19/comparing-major-hurricane-michael-to-recent-gulf-hurricanes-using-integrated-kinetic-energy
  4. Frontal zone over the plains. There's a 20 degree temp difference.
  5. Matches with the models having a coastal plane wind hole.
  6. Not looking tropical anymore. I might have guessed this was from 1/24/2000 if it was shown to me with no date.
  7. That is strange almost looks like a tornado but it's not 3 dimensional.
  8. This thing never quits. Can't imagine the horror stories we'll hear in the coming days of people clinging to a tree for 10 hrs.
  9. So the backside was stronger with less videos from it?
  10. Only about a 1.25ft difference between high and low
  11. Looks like a storm weakening over land and not at all due to wind shear. I'm guessing the stationary front over NE FL has something to do with it's shear resistance since it's an unusual feature.
  12. And winds aren't even out of the NW yet
  13. I'd much rather be a person in NJ who didn't evacuate for sandy than a person in Ft Myers that didn't evacuate for Ian. They're probably dropping like flys as we speak.
  14. The storm surge started but the tsunami hasn't hit yet.
  15. Took a little jog back north.. Looks like it will end up close to the forecast, which is unfortunate for many.
  16. That would be the most damaging surge since Katrina.
  17. Got 4-6 hours until the outer eyewall starts to clip sanibel island. Center makes landfall between 18 and 21z.
  18. The radar sites are pretty far away so only measuring winds well aloft. This also means there's no NWS radar site to wreck for once.
  19. T7.2 if anyone cares. Same as Micheal.
