Looks like the colder tops are expanding again around the center.

GFS right up the spine.

Down to 155 mph, cat 4. Could weaken more followed by possible strengthening again per NHC. No real change in track..

Josh Morgerman‏Verified account @iCyclone 1m1 minute ago More 7 am. Heading S on Florida Turnpike near Kissimmee. N-bound lanes mobbed. #IRMA the only topic on morning radio. Folks are *freaked*.

Eh..6 hours isn't that much of a difference at this rate. They'll be issued late this morning. Everyone knows they're coming, a lot of people are already leaving. NHC usually does everything by the book.

No Cuba landfall this time, quite a bit north of previous runs.

Usually the better intact a storm is when hitting cuba like that, the worse shape its in when it reemerges. Especially if its a large size...and it just doesnt get its act back together. Ike was like that i believe..was supposed to get to cat 4 or 5 again over the Gulf and couldnt do it. Sent from my SM-G930U using Tapatalk

Since GFS upgrade it overly deepens hurricanes all the time

Lol @ Drudge..such stupidity

Winds are up to 125 pressure down to 944.

GFS still landfall near SC NC border

I don't know about eastern outlier..it's about in the middle. The mean is almost identical to the operational it looks to me.

Officially Lambert Field in St Louis received 3.6 inches today. Biggest storm of the winter, which is sad. Brings the seasonal total to just short of 11 inches ..again sad. Some places around the area did get 5-7 inches. I received a half inch here...10 miles east of me had 3 inches and 7 miles south had 4. Grrr.

I wouldn't bet on QPF going down in future runs. That el nino is still juiced and will help water log the storm in general, not to mention the very warm Atlantic waters. Good luck guys..hope you all get pounded.

Wow, the GFS is C-O-L-D next week and beyond. What a change from December..I mean whoa.
