Yeah. I was wrong again. For gods sake dont take my views as an educated person saying them. It is beasting now. Closed off and bombs away from here. Contracting eye and a beast has been born. Prayers for the Big Bend  of Florida. Horrific for them

It's most likely CAT 4 now. Catastrophic.

As is usually the case, I have support from folks that can let y’all know I’m ok in the likely event I lose signal.

For this trip I’ve been conferring with @MillvilleWx & @ORH_wxman. Will update as I can of course. 

Pressure down to 994.6mb here.

It amazes me that the current weather models can see that rapid intensification. From a hurricane that was eating a ton of dry air to a beast. They predicted it. Basically human forecasting will be gone in the next 10 years. 

No JB?.

What the actual fuck are you taking about?

[clskinsfan]

Holy shit. What a fucking monster. Whatch the towers fire off

[09-10 analogy]

The comparisons to Hugo are pretty apt I think. Strengthening on the way in, booking along, and liable to hit a major metro area far inland hard. 

EDIT: One thing I just thought of, Hugo didn't seem to have a big affect on the southern Appalachians? I mean, like Helene is gonna blast them with.

Hugo was a baby compared to this. Tiny little bitch

Apparently being a Christian here is not accepted anymore. And I am fine with it. Be back in the winter. God Bless!

Hugo was 937 mb when it hit SC. Helene as of 5 pm was 951. It may surpass Hugo. But, still, comparable.

My friend, as usual, your power of comprehension is limited, likely because of alcohol.

Is it Wild Turkey Rare Breed at 113?  Be careful with that stuff!  It is only for sipping, not guzzling.

Or Everclear at 190, cut 50%.  Again, only sipping.

Have a better day in about 12 hrs..  AND, yes, we're still friends.

Thanks. Yep I’m doing ok. Doing the damage survey now. It’s significant to extensive in spots, but could’ve been a lot worse. Will be attempting to travel back home today.
