This.
Also, the winter before all those seasons also sucked. #noexpectations

14 hours ago, BTRWx said:I'm curious what people here think about my idea that Miami's storm surge in SE Florida was worse than where Irma made landfall on the FL Peninsula, because of being in the northeast quadrant of the cyclone?...
Then, adding to that thought, could Jacksonville get a larger surge than Tampa for the same reason?...
Wow!

At least you recognize the wrongdoing now.

It's going to take a tragedy to happen for these reporters to put safety first. I have no sympathy anymore!
-
A storm surge doesn't usually happen all at once, right? Isn't it a more gradual build-up unlike what media reporters are trying to capture live? This is no tsunami!

Anyone else catch this on radarscope? wow!

Possibly, but they will do that for any storm-like sky.

Most asymmetrical hurricane I've ever seen!

18z was a significant shift west compared to 12z. It's coming and it's less than 10 days away!
I've been eyeing the ensemble trends. Intriguing!

As long as there's no landfall from the center of the eye (being so massive), she's free to "juice".

4 minutes ago, BristowWx said:Can higher SSTs overcome land interaction/friction? I suppose it depends on land elevation and time the eye spends over land.
I would say any land interaction automatically weakens a tropical system's intensity. The size of what's left of Irma could expand or contract though.

Time for a Promotion!

8 minutes ago, eurojosh said:That's a slow and west swing on the GFS. Which allows Irma to deepen a little more before landfall - directly into Naples/Fort Meyers.
Wonder if some folks who drove west a couple of days ago will be driving back east tonight...
