frostbite_falls Posted September 10, 2017 Share Posted September 10, 2017 Question--mods have directed chaser posts to the relevant thread, but I don't see that thread. Maybe there just aren't any posts about chasers (outside of those in the main thread)? Or am I missing something? Just miss the blue shed I guess.

gritsnc Posted September 10, 2017 Share Posted September 10, 2017 Msnbc said the water is getting sucked away from the shore the way it did in the Bahamas (I think it was the Bahamas). Can anyone verify this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Amped Posted September 10, 2017 Share Posted September 10, 2017 For 12 years we can't buy a cat 3 landfall and then we get 2 CAT 4 landfalls in a row. Man they really need to stop with this Saffir Simpson scale. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you would have put the model output from 5 days ago where we had the Doomsday scenario coming up the east coast of Florida next to the actual path and strength that's going on right now and ask any true weather Enthusiast which path they prefer... every single one of them would have chosen the doomsday scenario. I'll admit I'm conflicted. if i knew nobody was going to get hurt than yeah i would want the biggest storm possible, but since thats not the case, I'm happy it wasn't worse (still bad though) i empathize with what you are saying; everybody has a morbid curiosity in regards to disasters and see how things can go from bad to worse (you only have to look at the popularity of disaster movies to notice that), but we must also keep in mind that lives and property are at stake here. Another thread on this forum questioned whether it is moral to hope for the worst and i would say that is ok since you hoping and wishing isn't going to matter at all, but its still in very bad taste.

Windspeed Posted September 10, 2017 Share Posted September 10, 2017 Every major hurricane landfall has the not that bad and dodged a bullet posts while the event is still unfolding. Then after the event people learn that some unfortunate communities got devestated.Dramatic surge will be the sobering story over night as the backside of Irma focuses sea level rebound and onshore flow into harbors and inlets. A lot of expensive real estate will be submerged over several miles inland in places. Though the onshore flow will weaken slowly through Monday as Irma lifts NNW, it will persist for another 48 hrs making the surge slow to recede.
