CheeselandSkies Posted October 7 Share Posted October 7 7 minutes ago, TPAwx said: NHC track shifted north, right over TB. Not the update I wanted for MBY, but is what it is. Might be one of the most ominous forecast graphics I've ever seen from the NHC; perhaps short of last years' for Otis that effectively were "OH BTW A CAT 5 IS GONNA MAKE LANDFALL IN ACAPULCO IN LIKE 6 HOURS OOPS SRY." 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LeesburgWx Posted October 7 Share Posted October 7 2 minutes ago, jrips27 said: I know we don’t focus on exact track this far out, but this has to be one of the most devastating hypothetical tracks ever put out by NHC And it's not just the landfall location, but the NE heading to that landfall. The worst possible outcome 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At that distance, the beam height is high, but Milton's eyewall is very defined and intense. This radar shows the likely future new eye wall forming as well. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Worst offenders IMO are UKMET, ICON and Euro, in that order. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The worst possible outcome Exactly. Allot of very serious inland wind damage. Like complete collapse of the power grid type damage. Disney would never be the same if this verified. 4 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WxWatcher007 Posted October 7 Author Share Posted October 7 I think there’s still enormous value in looking at ensembles, and I think that’s why we’re seeing slight north ticks from the NHC. It’s also important to highlight that the ensembles continue to show northward sensitivity to a stronger storm. Given where we are right now with the structure and intensity of Milton, I’d lean north of Tampa at this time. Obviously still time for things to change. 5 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Radtechwxman Posted October 7 Share Posted October 7 That motion on radar really looks like part of eyewall could come on shore in Yucatan. Curious to see what effect this has on Milton. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Curious to see what effect this has on Milton. I don't think we see that significant of a track error, it'll probably make deviations E once it feels the impact of the land mass and miss. I could see it coming within 20-30 miles but not moving onshore 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MANDA Posted October 7 Share Posted October 7 3 minutes ago, pazzo83 said: probably not much given the terrain there. I would think it would have some effect landfall or not. There will be a period of time where southerly inflow will be coming off land and Milton is not moving fast so I believe there will be some degradation to the structure as Milton passes close to but off the Yucatan coast for a period of many hours. We'll see. No denying the events of this morning though with spectacular intensification and textbook satellite appearance. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
