Edit: Sandwich animation
-
Thank you! Interesting! So the bright red spots are little "cold" spots in the storm. Curious.
-
This is from the "Sandwich" view. I have no idea what that is. It is the only view I see that has anything weird in this otherwise perfect storm. Clusters of bright red spots in a dark spiral. What is the meteorological description of this phenomenon?
-
Is this not kind of the trend for science this year? Deny facts, discourage data, ignore science? We'll just learn to live with bigger stronger more unpredictable hurricanes. Why not? Right?
-
"Sorry, you cannot be here now, we are doing super-secret s*** and nobody can know." Just kidding....

Looks like Puerto Cabezas is the town to take the brunt; pop. about 67,000. Not really a lot on that coast to the north or south. Hurricane Felix hit it is 2007 as a Cat 5 and left 100 dead. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hurricane_Felix Definitely do not see any LIVE webcams anywhere on the coast.

Over the Gulf, by especially Texas, I suspected secret seed operations were going on and they were told to go home. Obviously not here...

Wouldn't this be a fun few days to watch and talk about...
-
Some of the wildest footage I've seen in some time out of this. Combination of a daylight landfall and a storm that was strong but not so strong that all you saw was a wall of white. @CheeselandSkies post Yes indeed, and a good recap on the situation while it was still not over. One line from a local that is repeating in my head, "When is it going to end?"
-
I kept thinking everything was a 90 something. Was I losing my mind? Getting so old everything is so close to 100?
-
To be honest, I'd feel better if we do get a very late yet respectable storm this season to complete the map where every mile of the eastern US was in a cone at some point. If we on the central west coast of Florida by freak luck skipped this year, I'll be on edge next year!!
-
Maybe a naive question, but we are on 96L. Does that mean this season stared with 1L?
-
8 year Sandy NJ landfall anniversary today?
-
Next year I will keep a journal of every time Tampa Bay was in a future model. I lost count this year very long ago. I have even lost count in the past week.

Upper case: Hurricane ! Hurricane @ Hurricane # So on...
-
Uh, yea. So many storms, so many names. LOL I was going off of memory. ("Which one was it? Beta? OK, sure...") Who remembers Hanna? This was an active forum for sure!
-
I'm still waiting for Cameron's data to be displayed from Beta. I think they wait 30 days as Laura's did eventually show up and it was impressive. Beta's may be as well.

I've spent some time looking, and 88/112 from Bayou Bienvenue is the strongest winds I've seen recorded. Many PWS are still down, so some that have battery backup that still recorded after the power was out and may show up more later. A few professional stations stop displaying when the the winds hit 50 mph during a storm due to licensing. But 112 is the most I've seen that the public can see online. Local TV news and social media around there reported higher (as posted here last night), but I haven't been able to find the actual recordings online using the tools I use. I was up at 4:30 this morning and the first thing I did was look for current winds with the storm. At that time I found 30 to 35 mph sustained winds with gusts as high as 59 were easy to find in GA, SC, and NC with PWS's. Keep in mind most of those are protected from the wind. One was from a Fire Station with 42/59 I think, maybe in SC. But I didn't go far from the center. I suspect some of the stronger winds were a maybe as far as 100 miles from the center ahead of the storm and east.

Hmmm, freezing rain and snow in Texas, a Hurricane hits New Orleans, Biloxi, and Gulfport (MS) and pounds the southeast US into Virginia, miserable hot and muggy in Florida. Can't wait to see what is next for 2020. Maybe we'll see snow in Florida a day or two after we get hit by the next TS?
-
That is crazy for this time of year! In the Spring with a warm wet storm and a major snow melt, creeks and rivers often flood in them mountains. Then it's time to white water raft if not too dangerous (New River in WV comes to mind). LOL
-
@Windspeed Tri-Cities, TN/VA Any Zeta effects up there? Was in Blacksburg just a week ago and had dinner with my Uncle and Aunt who live in Kingsport.
-
Every six hours various models dance different scenarios around with future development in the Caribbean and GOM. This being 2020, and enduring yet another hot muggy day on October 29 here in Florida, I tend to think we may not be done for the year. We still have healthy green leaves and fresh blooms on our Frangipani in our backyard that never has leaves past mid-September! Strange year.
-
I totally appreciated the alternative as something to watch last night...
-
The intensity was low, but they nailed US landfall very well.

Still tight circulation:
