As shown on the image below, one can see how rapidly 2025’s ACE has increased in relation to others since 1951: it’s now 16th highest of the last 75

“Fear mongering” pays the bills, mixed in with the speed of information, all hell breaks loose

Yes, UHI and global warming are both happening. The presence of one doesn't diminish the other. This thread/board is littered with whataboutism. What about this, what about that. Many things can be true at the same time. That doesn't change the big picture. Scientists from the 1970s would not be surprised by the warmer world we have today or that Phoenix has a heat island.

This is one of the more fascinating strengthening episodes I’ve seen for a storm. It’s basically an entirely new core and system living in the body of its old self.

Very visible eye now. It will probably be a major again today, which was forecasted.

The amount of public freakout over this has gone way too far. All because a few people made a mistake. Is it tragic? Yes, but stuff like this has happened for years, and will continue to happen for years to come. Not everyone can swim. Not everyone can read. Not everyone can speak the same language. Not everyone is glued to the news, or their phone 24/7. And then you'll have some of those who will defy all of that logic and reasoning too.

It has been raining even with radar showing very little

No, he posts basically the same forecast year after year. And the only thing brutal about most of the time is his accuracy rate.

Small eye forming, open to the SE. If it can clear out the dry air it could get some intensification.

Already a 7 foot swell before the 15+foot swell arrives tomorrow.

Pressure dropped about 5 mb between passes.

The “forbidden cinnamon roll” just made me spit up my coffee. I’m saving that term for future use

Edit: even the strongest of swimmers should give second thoughts to going in. Even as a former college swimmer, and ocean guard I made the mistake of going in the day before Hurricane Gloria. Yes I’m that old

48.9° and raining for Mitch. Terrible.

I think it’s playoffs or bust. And should be playoff series win or bust.

For those interested in wave heights as the forbidden cinnamon roll approaches, Frying Pan Tower’s live cam is back online just in time. Link:

That was a guinea pig for diane

Peaks of sun on the shore today. Going to walk the beach and look at the big waves.

But that’s exactly what you’d expect as it starts to feel the effects of the trough. It’s already showing signs of becoming extra tropical.

Cocgust in full swing…swinging back and forth slapping humid humpers backsides and heads.

There’s a noticeable eye showing up on IR and there was another blow up of convection near the center. Yes, there is some dry air but I think the moat you’re seeing is mainly due to the expanding system. Erin’s outflow is now reaching into Southern Virginia on the NW side.

Recon reveals what most have been saying- a very broad system without a sharp inner core. Highest FL winds again well away from center and SFMR readings appear to show a lack of efficient mixing of winds to surface. Though the sat appearance has improved and pressure falls continue, this likely isn’t generating cat 2 winds at this juncture, just a large area of 60-75kt wind
