They're trapped by the surge and getting out...

Brett Adair is in the eyewall right now just driving around...incredibly unsafe but it is some crazy video right now.

It almost looks as if the eye ejects that warm area and immediately afterwards the eye starts shaping up even better. Is this coincidence or is there a better meteorological explanation for it? Or have I just been staring at IR loops too long?

Michael’s eye is becoming very stable and circular. It’s no stretch to say we are definitely witnessing history here.

Looks like he's beginning to consolidate and form a complete wall on IR.

Noticing some cold tops emerging on the SE side of the storm. Will be interesting to see if this makes the storm more symmetric.

Towers shooting up on the south side now.

I'll play devil's advocate here. If a branch was about to come down on my house and I thought there was a lull in the storm, I might run out too to trim a limb before it crashes into my roof. Is it safe? No. Do I recommend it? No. But I can understand the logic a bit, despite the dangerous nature of it.

I can't help but draw some similarities to Hurricane Ike back in 2008. Don't get me wrong, it's a totally different setup and situation. But in regards to the EWRC, after Ike went through Cuba, he grew enormously and kept undergoing EWRCs seemingly more interested in growing in size rather than focusing on his windspeed. Hence why we wound up with a Cat 2 hurricane with Cat 4-5 storm surge. Florence definitely seems more interested in growing its wind field rather than it's speed, which means we are looking at some scary storm surge potential.

Florence has had some cold tops firing all around the eye now. Definitely watching it intensify again.

https://radar.weather.gov/Conus/southplains_loop.php Honest question, should we be concerned here in Tulsa? That's a very large band of heavy precip headed our way and it's still 27 degrees here in Tulsa. Does the High res tend to overdo amounts?

1/2 inch of freezing rain in Tulsa as evening rush hour is out would be a nightmare. The HRRR just keep pumping up Tulsa's numbers.

I've been watching the HRRR ice totals slowly creep closer and higher in the Tulsa area, going to be a fine line(as usual).

Brand new GFS is painting a dangerous picture for Tulsa and SW Missouri....
