    I am extremely concerned since we have cousins there. I can’t fathom why they didn’t leave.

    Ian will be a good lesson in why you don't build coastal cities on sea level marshlands.
  3. HIPPYVALLEY
    I'll be close on this call.

    I’m just catching up, so sorry if it’s been covered but how far inland are hurricane gusts expected? All the way to Orlando?
  5. HIPPYVALLEY
    There has already been some decent rains tonight, to areas due E and W of Lake Okeechobee.
  6. HIPPYVALLEY
    Nice dry period coming up. Perfect for leaf season in WNE.

    Yeah, I am ignorant of what Tampa can handle in terms of 24 hour rain totals but 8-10" looks to be quite possible. Even though they look to avoid the brunt of the hurricane force winds, I would imagine they will still have significant power outages based on the size of the TS wind field?

    Cayo Costa / Boca Grande 120MPH

    I didn't realize Florida had a big gypsum industry. That's not good. It's easy to overlook all of the potential toxins that flood waters can spread and deposit. 15"-20" of rain falling in short order, on a grossly over developed wetlands, has no good outcome potential.
  10. HIPPYVALLEY
    Inland hydro issues will become a big story me thinks. Especially if Ian pulls off some of the higher end model projections.
  11. HIPPYVALLEY
    Even if the winds are not that bad, 15"+ of rain for Orlando, would probably be somewhat problematic.
  12. HIPPYVALLEY
    I agree with you that it may wobble a little N again. Northport LF is bad news for Fort Meyers and not great for Sarasota.
  13. HIPPYVALLEY
    Man, if models keep trending Ian south it will be heading into the Everglades by the 0z runs. If this comes in under Naples it is pretty much a bullet dodge for all of the populated areas of the W Coast. Rain could obviously still be an issue.
  14. HIPPYVALLEY
    Bad for Ft Meyers and Sarasota but certainly not great for Tampa either.
  15. HIPPYVALLEY
    I would have done the same. You missed a lot of scoring though. Looks like nice day shaping up here.
  16. HIPPYVALLEY
    That wouldn't be good.

    Downtown would flood badly if this slows to a crawl as some models show. My guess would be minimal loss of life due to sufficient lead time with warnings but billions in insurance claims.

    66/60. Almost feels a little muggy.

    Clear sky and at an ideal degree I guess? It was quite impressive and lasted over a minute. We watched it go from the big white jellyfish shape to a little red dot, so I assume that is when the booster disengaged? It was a chatty ride home with my kid, that's for sure.
  20. HIPPYVALLEY
    Thanks. When I did a quick search all I had found was the cancellation of the Artemis launch. It was cool to catch, especially because none of us knew what it was. I've never seen anything like it in person.

    Did anybody else see this moving across the southern horizon around 7:30 PM? I was at a country ice cream stand in Bernardston with about 10 other people and we all just stood there amazed. It tracked across the sky from West to East a good minute or so and then completely disappeared.

    Low of 38° here. Radiator delight last night. Still only 46° at 9am.
  23. HIPPYVALLEY
    We take.
  24. HIPPYVALLEY
    Weather up on those ridges is as intense as it gets in the Northeast. I've seen it snow on the Bigelow range in June.
  25. HIPPYVALLEY
    Good luck my friend, glad you are there and had a window to chase this one. I'm very interested since I have family in Halifax.
