A shift just E of current modeling will bring some pretty good sustained winds into the Orlando area. Last night I was guesstimating 2 million w/o power from this but I may be way low on that number. Expand may be low on that number? 1.4 million already without power...FPL expects the total to be around 9 million... http://cbs12.com/weather/hurricane-stories/when-the-power-goes-out-heres-what-to-do Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mountain_Patch Posted September 10, 2017 Share Posted September 10, 2017 Lets not talk about shear/dry air anymore. It's irrelevant to the event at this point. It won't inhibit growth, it won't stop the spin, and it won't slow the winds down. Landfall will be around Marco Island judging by the ULL and then it'll go near or over Tampa. The only thing to really watch right now is how the hurricane interacts with the feed from the ULL that has picked it up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Obviously every little wobble or turn NW is critical, but that's how it looks right now. Expand Haven't seen Josh's update since last night, but I hope he stayed at APF. Edit...looks like he stayed.

That being said, a track just to the right of the predicted path looks to be happening, which would bring it onshore near Marco Island and MAY be better for Tampa down the road. Fort Myers and Naples are going to be in the eyewall however and will receive a huge surge as winds come around to westerly behind the eye.

Wind damage is going to be wide spread, and a given at this point. I don't really think even if it was blowing 155 mph on ground it'd matter as much as what the surge actually does in Tampa. It still can intensify further to a high end cat 4- low 5 even looking awkward and asymmetric if it responds to the ULL. Its got about 8 hours to figure out what it wants to do and do it.
