The shore was the place to be in so many states. But with rising sea levels, powerful storm frequency increasing, people are going to be fleeing those areas in the coming years. Especially from those places that are literally built on the beach on stilts.
-
That is insane. How does she afford that?
-
With all the damage done by Milton, will anyone be able to get insurance in Florida now? Companies were already pulling out of large swaths of the state due to supposed inability to make a profit in them, leaving the state as the insurer of last resort. Those premiums will be astronomical.
-
I am glad that no one was hurt at The Trop, as it was set up as a place for first responders to get some rest. I have not heard if there were any injuries with the crane collapse, but hopefully we escaped any injuries there as well.
-
I am surprised that they did not secure it before Milton hit. They had plenty of notice to do so.
-
That is a crazy hook echo.
-
17 confirmed tornadoes so far as per https://tornadopaths.engin.umich.edu/ That number is sure to go way up
-
Thanks for the update.
-
The winds will decrease, but is the storm surge height pretty much "locked in" for lack of a better term due to how close it is to shore, and how strong it was?
-
https://tornadopaths.engin.umich.edu/ has 3 confirmed tornadoes so far today in Florida. I am sure that will shoot up as reports come in.
-
I wonder where Hurricane Josh has set himself up. He hasn't updated on twitter in a while.
-
With that pressure drop of 12mb from the last advisory, I am surprised we did not see an uptick in the windspeeds.
-
I am able to get to it, but it is very slow to load, and incomplete page load. The traffic on it right now is probably off the wall.

4:00 PM CDT Mon Oct 7 Location: 21.8°N 90.8°W Moving: E at 10 mph Min pressure: 905 mb Max sustained: 180 mph

I wonder how many of them still even have flood insurance with all those companies cancelling plans in Florida.
-
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.
-
I wonder if the birds were seen visually, or picked up on radar on the plane.
-
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
-
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?
-
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.
-
They probably should have left. But too late now to do so.
-
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.
-
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

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

I think it is new that they have inland hurricane/TS watches and warnings. We will see more of this in the future.
