    Man, this sucks. The gulf coast the way it is geographically set up has a lot of spots that are surprisingly not terrible for a storm to hit. Outside of Houston/galveston and New Orleans, this is probably the absolute worst place this could landfall. Honestly Tampa might be the worst case of any of them given the exposed bay where at least with Houston and New Orleans you do have some land barriers 

    Seems like its making a B line for Tampa

    I was down in Sarasota this past spring. The bay there is very high even just at high tide. The entire downtown will be underwater. 
     

    the construction downtown is pretty new so I would imagine structural damage would be limited even with cat 3 winds. That’s one saving grace, most of the development on the west coast is new and in accordance with the better building codes. Obviously the immediately shoreline will be wrecked, but the newer construction should be fine

    All those building are so cheaply made

    Man this thing is a behemoth, look at that gigantic outer band draped over Jamaica.
     

    These CAG storms can bring quite the vorticity payload as they head north. Major rossby wave perturbations likely downstream as Helene rots in the mid-latitudes.

    I haven’t looked, but this would likely be a “reshuffle the deck” situation for the extratropical circulation across the N-ATL and Europe

    Let's if it could escape the Yucatan and have a core in tack then it could really take off
