Maybe you can get us some footage like the 2004 Charley gas station video. I’m good. We’re just getting started. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jm1220 Posted September 27 Share Posted September 27 Gonna be a very close call in Tallahassee, storm is heading due N now it looks like and the NW eyewall should come close. For those places in the Big Bend about to be in the NE eyewall and the massive surge, well I just hope everyone there is out. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As I posted earlier, I absolutely cannot wait to overlay strikes with this storm compared to Michael and other gulf storms with GIS software. The spacial data for comparison is incredibly interesting when you import other data. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

USCG RS Posted September 27 Share Posted September 27 At this point, when Helene makes LF, it will still be strengthening. Like Michael appeared to do, we may actually see this storm strengthening over the first interactions with land as well. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The land it’s coming into is swamp, so it won’t weaken much if at all before it reaches I-10. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
