Siesta Key @ 115 was my call from two days ago. Wishing all those in harms way the best. As many have stated the backside of this storm has some of the strongest winds associated with it. This is just beginning for many.

More on this here - south of most guidance *for now*

Agree. Eye is looking a little more ragged this morning but doesn’t really change the threats much. Forecasted surge and rainfall already seem to be a lock. Max winds and landfall location still to be determined. sticking with my 115mph LF @ Siesta Key prediction

It will, how much is the question. Currently thinking a Siesta Key landfall as a cat 3 (115 mph).

Not the direction you want to see things trending

180/905 - wow

The symmetry is “beautiful” from a meteorological perspective but horrifying for those in its path. All we can do is hope for tremendous weakening before landfall (it will, just to what extent). No words. https://weather.cod.edu/satrad/?parms=meso-meso2-08-96-1-100-1&checked=map&colorbar=undefined

And we’re off…

Horrible angle and LF location for TB verbatim on that run. Going to be a long couple of days

Hands down the worst post I’ve seen this year and that says a lot. This post can only be viewed as ignorant trolling or attention seeking. Either way, it’s just nonsense. This is another 25B+ in damage storm incoming.

Recon actually found 986. But your point remains

06Z gfs looks around 958 just North of Tampa 06z icon is roughly 991 south of Tampa 06z NAM about 30 miles west of Tampa still at 84 @ 982mb

Do you happen to have an image or better yet a link I can bookmark. Know where to find all the globals but not sure best sites for hurricane models.

Appreciate the response. Another poster echoed that as well right before I posted.
