STILL N OF PIKE Posted September 27, 2022 Share Posted September 27, 2022 3 hours ago, Damage In Tolland said: Glad to see NHC finally realized it wasn’t going to go from beast cat 4 to a 1 in 12 hours prior to LF lol. That was ridiculous. Should be strong cat 3 into Sanibel Island. The intensity at landfall was relative to how far north into the sheer (300mb jet streak it got ) if this was landfalling North of Tampa is would slow big time and get hit hard by shear and weaken alot The further SE landfall on west coast the stronger it should be . this may be confusing to you 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

STILL N OF PIKE Posted September 27, 2022 Share Posted September 27, 2022 I just saw you covered that as I was reading last couple pages I wonder if this can have some Charley like ticks . I’m not trying to act like I know anything or that the set up favors them but just because I’m not sure how prepped people are for the arrival of a potential cat 4 in Ft. Myers because that would take just a little more of a turn and be on them by morning 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HIPPYVALLEY Posted September 27, 2022 Share Posted September 27, 2022 Man, if models keep trending Ian south it will be heading into the Everglades by the 0z runs. If this comes in under Naples it is pretty much a bullet dodge for all of the populated areas of the W Coast. Rain could obviously still be an issue. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

weathafella Posted September 27, 2022 Share Posted September 27, 2022 Always in awe when I see this. Time sensitive-too big for me to post image which is a pita but oh well....sattelite loops so impressive. I think Tampa Bay gets somewhat spared as lf appears further south now... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bristolri_wx Posted September 27, 2022 Share Posted September 27, 2022 Too bad remnants aren’t forecasted to make it here. Would have probably been the final mail in the coffin on the drought in Southern New England. Lots of areas still in moderate on Drought Monitor despite all the rain we have gotten this past month… Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ROOSTA Posted September 27, 2022 Share Posted September 27, 2022 No propane, no gasoline, water flying off the shelves. Highways jammed and then you have the yahoo's who are oblivious and stay even along the coast, D'OH I fear the power will be gone for days. Irma was 6 days prompting a generator purchase. This is going to be stronger, longer. I'm glad the latest are going S. A few runs back tracking right overhead. AFD has 100+ gusts, isolated 24"+ in wordage with a lot of extremes to boot.

dendrite Posted September 28, 2022 Share Posted September 28, 2022 My ex’s parents had a place in Port Charlotte…last I knew. They could be in a rough spot as they are just east of Rotonda and have boat access to Charlotte Harbor from their home. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dan11295 Posted September 28, 2022 Share Posted September 28, 2022 18Z UKMET finally came north a bit and is now close to 18Z GFS with a landfall near Rontonda. Fort Myers/Charlotte Harbor look like they could be among the worst spots for surge. People have to realize the track may looks a bit like Charley, but Ian is a much bigger surge threat with the larger circulation. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
