wxsniss Posted August 25, 2011 Share Posted August 25, 2011 She's got good outflow to the north and outflow slowly expanding wsw so shear may be weakening a tiny bit. It has a chance to strengthen later today and tonight. Especially now with ERC done 11am minimum pressure will be telling Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Damage In Tolland Posted August 25, 2011 Share Posted August 25, 2011 Lets not get so caught up in the track and landfall points and forget to actually watch Irene, she looks sick right now, tons of dry air to the west, the core is ragged and poor outflow >west.

CoastalWx Posted August 25, 2011 Share Posted August 25, 2011 The NAM had 500mb makes some sense anyways. If you loop H5, you can see how that little s/w trough to its west tries to bend it nw near HSE, but then is goes right back to almost due north afterwards.

wxsniss Posted August 25, 2011 Share Posted August 25, 2011 951 mb from 950 mb.... Stable If it was really falling apart as some are inferring from satellite, probably would have been worse I think still have time for a decent eye to form by tonight with jump to upper Cat3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cloudsncontrails Posted August 25, 2011 Share Posted August 25, 2011 Ill take the Nam and run. 1 tree in my yard, neighborhood build on old gravel pit which can't flood. pretty much only think that could hurt where I live is a tornado. Well that's good. Glad your house will be ok and this storm will work for you. What about the majority of us that it won't be ok for? I seriously don't get the excitement about the devastation this thing will reap upon millions of people.This storm if it makes landfall will undoubtably injure and kill people. It could ruin people financially if their insurance riders don't cover damage to their homes. Seriously I know some are excited, but just stop and think of the ramifications and havoc this thing will bring upon your neighbors, friends, family and property if this track holds.

Cloudsncontrails Posted August 25, 2011 Share Posted August 25, 2011 Are you new to the American Weather Fourms? Yeah and I like a storm and weather as much as the next guy but to be openly rooting for devastation is a little extreme. I hope this thing misses everyone. I don't particularly enjoy living like a caveman for two weeks and filling out insurance claims. That's just me though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope this thing misses everyone. I don't particularly enjoy living like a caveman for two weeks and filling out insurance claims. That's just me though. The general board dynamic is to root for as extreme weather as possible. Nobody really wants to live without power for days and fill out insurance claims, but most of are willing to grin and bear it if it means getting to witness intense storm.
