8 pm advisory: 180 mph, 897 mb.

180 mph, 905 mb.

The Artist Formerly Known as "Waddams," is now at 175 mph, 911 mb.

I always forget about Busch Gardens.

At some point we have to stop worrying about those who choose to not care and start worrying about those who do care but are limited in their avenue of escape.

Yeah but it makes Sea World an appropriate name.

WADDAMS FIVE. 160 MPH.

Early Nooners: 58°F and cloudy. Sun keeps popping in and out.

But will there still be a farcical D0 destination?

Waddams 155 at 11. The Office Space jokes stop the minute DeSantis orders Clearwater to GIT.

Or as my old man used to call it, "Douchebags Go to Lunch."

Or more busty depending on your use of the word lol

Thats what I remember seeing on YT during a live stream from an Atlanta network affiliate.

Right. GFS had this thing sniffed out just after Helene but I think it vanished for a bit. There's an interesting little bit on the tropical thread in that the trend over the last few years has been to continue to intensify up until landfall. This one is being modeled to get a little bigger and throw the wind field outward while losing steam as we approach. I do fear for what may happen if that doesn't happen. Or I guess even if it does but not to the extent currently progged. Suppose this bastard hits 205-215 mph max sustained but weakens to something like... 165 mph max. What a disaster.

Waddams IV. 150 mph. If this thing doesn't hit the Yucatan, 200 mph is happening.

May the Villages drown lol

Hurricane Waddams is officially major. This may be the fastest intensification I have ever seen in a cyclone. Considering it is expected to continue to intensify before rapidly expanding and deintensifying, I wonder if we get 200 mph sustained winds out of this one.

You're reaching @TheClimateChangerlevels of idiocy with this. Just stop.

You really need to Catsup.

43°F this morning. Furnace deployed.

Tampa is screwed.

Spent the afternoon on Front Street today. Gorgeous fall day.

Took the time to push mow the grass tonight at mid-height on the deck blade and it was the right call. I think my yard looks better right now than it has all season, and it's going to require another mow in a few days with all the sun we've had the last two days. Gorgeous night, this.

No. It was @AccuChris . You only post Nooners.

Yeah I'm probably going to double it up. I've made the mistake of trying to lob too much off at once and the yard ends up looking like pure ass after. I'll probably go medium length first time, low the second
