Afternoon high of 57 IMBY, but it'll go in the books as a midnight high of 60.

It’s not like we have a perfect kicker…oh.

Both are daily records whether they hit 90 or not

Despite the early offense struggles, they are third in point differential in the NFL.

2.06" total. Another (mostly) whiff at DCA, where it looks like they'll end up at 1.09" and will remain almost -6" YTD. N&W special

I’m happy, but it is funny that “we all got in on it” looks like this

An inch in the gauge just since I emptied it at 7am. Top layer of the ground is certainly saturated.

Just passed an inch with a nice downpour. And I now know which gutter is clogged.

I assume he's completely washed, but who knows.

Mesonet station XSRS Santa Rosa Sound DB127 recorded sustained winds of 84 mph with a measured wind gust of 116 mph. https://mesonet.agron.iastate.edu/lsr/?by=wfo&wfo=MOB&sts=202610100045&ets=202610100045&settings=1110100

Looks like landfall will be on Miramar Beach, which means Destin will stay on the left side. If there is any surge, it looks like it would be directed to some areas that have state park land, which is a plus.

I generally agree with you, especially being in the mid-Atlantic where a severe warning is verified on a 35mph gust that takes down a dead tree branch, but I don't think that this one matters too much. I might argue that 115mph sustained is a too high of a marker for an EWW. That's an EF2 tornado sustained! Hopefully this cam stays up. https://maps.app.goo.gl/5GBwpLHVo3nQd6CH8

I assume many people thought that this would be a halfacane at landfall, but this is more impressive than the radar presentation would lead on.

Maybe the interesting thing here is that the EWW text has no mention of wind speeds at all. It might simply be that the NWS offices are ignoring the 115mph sustained guidance and going with an EWW for all major hurricane eyewalls.

That is a short flight. Somebody made a really unnecessary mistake thinking that they could sneak into TLH. Edit - they went back to ATL. What a miserable experience that must be.
