Watched the CNN clip again and it still looked fully rendered over previous satellite imagery (basically an inundation map I would generate using GIS software) But then I pulled up the article and pulled up the same images and could actually see then that the video was playing tricks on me with regard to the detail I thought I was seeing in the image. I can see the base image is the same radar-imaged view. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TennTradition Posted September 4, 2019 Share Posted September 4, 2019 It is amazing the age we are entering into regarding the cost of satellites and their resulting proliferation. Basically the data is now unlimited and the effort lies in data analysis and imagination to try to figure out how to make use of it. One of the more interesting combinations I’ve seen is using car counting algorithms to track various companies’ (like retail) activity/sales in advance of earnings returns to allow for investing strategies. Then, pairing this with cell phone tracking to understand the zip codes the shoppers are returning to and the demographics of those zip codes Or, estimating oil storage inventory in floating roof tanks by measuring the area of the ellipse formed on the roof by the sun’s shadow and then rolling this up to regional and global storage trends. It’s a brave new world. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Must be elevation but I assumed it was low and thus why there wasn’t any development (much like the east side of Grand Bahama) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jasons Posted September 4, 2019 Share Posted September 4, 2019 I will say one thing regarding overdevelopment - that was a valid point with all the concrete and flooding. I moved to the Houston area in 2005 and I’ve lost count of the number of 100, 500, 1,000 & “unprecedented” floods we have gotten over the last 14 years. It’s become routine for any major rain event to break some sort of record. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Torchageddon Posted September 4, 2019 Share Posted September 4, 2019 2 hours ago, thess said: When it gets this quiet I assume that the storm is pretty much over. (Non met lurker.) But this seems abnormally quiet, no post mortem or anything. Maybe people have storm fatigue, maybe they’ve peeled off to other sites, no idea. If this was a southeastern possible snowstorm, people would be screaming at each other and posting desperate low-tier models left and right. I notice after a huge severe weather event or something insane tornado wise there is often no post mortem and things carry on as if nothing happened. If a large severe weather day ended up doing absolutely nothing at all no one will post about how and why it failed but rather there simply won't be any posts and no analysis.

The new show probably just finally covered all the crazy plane tickets/hotels/cars/equipment he's purchased over the years so he could chase at a moment's notice. My post was tongue-in-cheek anyway.

A cruise out of Manhattan (even on a mainstream line like NCL) gets you a different crowd than, say, NOLA. (And yes I’ve done both, recently.) the expansion of ports where people can drive to just expands the reach to cheap degenerates. Now the trash that couldn’t afford plane tickets to Ft lauderdale can drive an hour to their closest port to board these slave ships. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
