  2. I wonder how many of them still even have flood insurance with all those companies cancelling plans in Florida.
  3. Even with that weakening, the storm surge will be massive, as it probably won't be quick enough to have that slack off at all.
  4. I wonder if the birds were seen visually, or picked up on radar on the plane.
  5. I wonder where those birds got dragged in from. The Yucatan? Most recent NHC report. 175mph winds. Can those increase any further today, more pressure drops? This is absolutely insane with what they were just a few hours ago. 1:00 PM CDT Mon Oct 7 Location: 21.7°N 91.3°W Moving: E at 9 mph Min pressure: 911 mb Max sustained: 175 mp
  6. Insane pressure drops. Those people on the recon aircrafts must be getting quite the bumpy ride. How long can it deepen at this rate? Are there any other comparisons other than Opal?
  7. When an entire town is gone, another is completely cut off, record flooding. It is going to be hard to save homes like this. FEMA will be spending a lot of time and money on helping people out. Water is still in some homes, they can't even cut the dry wall yet.
  8. They probably should have left. But too late now to do so.
  9. Is Helene predicted to come on shore at high tide, or low tide. Even with the wave heights as high as they are, it still will help a bit if it comes on shore at low tide.
  10. NHC says 125 MPH 6:00 PM EDT Thu Sep 26 Location: 28.0°N 84.5°W Moving: NNE at 23 mph Min pressure: 950 mb Max sustained: 125 mph
  11. The eastern eye looks like is still open. Might still close off considering how fast it is developing. https://www.tropicaltidbits.com/68232b05-58d2-48b2-a3f4-c5ccb096a451
  12. I think it is new that they have inland hurricane/TS watches and warnings. We will see more of this in the future.
  13. Full update. 4:00 PM CDT Wed Sep 25 Location: 22.5°N 86.6°W Moving: N at 12 mph Min pressure: 978 mb
  14. Plus it is very close to the Yucatan, that has to be causing some issues with strengthening IMHO as an amateur.
  15. I was just about to ask about the effects of Hurricane John, especially since it is predicted to become a cat 3 hurricane before landfall.
  16. I thought that the further out a storm develops in the Atlantic, the greater the chance it will re-curve before getting to the US. Unless the Bermuda high is in just the right place of course.
  17. From NHC 2:00 PM AST Mon Jul 1 Location: 12.8°N 62.3°W Moving: WNW at 20 mph Min pressure: 946 mb Max sustained: 150 mph
  18. Here in Astoria the streets are clear, the sidewalks are mostly just wet, few spots of snow where it piled up more because it fell off of trees. Good snowball making snow. Packs real well. I am guessing 10 or 11:1 ratios. Temps hovered around 30 degrees all night, so we didn't get that real light fluffy snow you might get with temps in the 20's.
  19. Bring those totals down near the coast, NYC closer to an 8:1 ratio given the mixing issues, and borderline temps IMHO.
  20. The link to the full study that Don posted above is very interesting, once you get past some of the high level math that they discuss in it.
  21. I think this is the best place to post this article, and hear what everyone thinks about it. https://www.cnn.com/2024/02/09/climate/atlantic-circulation-collapse-weather-climate/index.html
  22. Been snowing lightly in Astoria since this AM. Not much is getting on the sidewalks and roads due to the rate of snowfall, plus all the salt that has been spread around. Grassy areas, and areas that had snow piled from the storm earlier this week are seeing accumulation, but not very much. The sun is even weakly showing thru the clouds at times.
