I cannot recall there ever being three majors at one time in the Atlantic Basin. I think so. I think there's no precedent for three simultaneous majors. In 2010 it felt short by about 24 hours when Igor, Julia and Karl were out there Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thunderwolf Posted September 8, 2017 Share Posted September 8, 2017 Wow the main thread is terrible. I'm a degreed met and follow it for entertainment purposes but there is occasionally some good insight but these past 2 storms have been about unbearable. Anyway, I have never really dove down deep into the insides of all the models, but does anyone know why the ECMWF is such a damn good a tropical? It's not like the Europeans get impacted all the time and thus there is no reason for them place a big emphasis on it when making their model. Is it just that much better all around than all the other models? I mean we have the HWRF or HMON designed just for tropical and they are much worse than the ECMWF.

gritsnc Posted September 8, 2017 Share Posted September 8, 2017 Can we post some links here of active webcams in the south Florida area? I can't get any to load here at work and don't know which ones are working and which ones aren't. They've got so much blocked on our computers.

wxmx Posted September 8, 2017 Share Posted September 8, 2017 I haven't dared to go back to Irma's thread today. I have read at least 180 pages from that thread. I just got all the info needed myself, and probably go back to the last 3 pages or so in a few minutes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Akeem the African Dream Posted September 8, 2017 Share Posted September 8, 2017 Local authorities aren't giving us a hard time about staying. If you are a resident they are allowing free passage between the mainland and barrier islands until this evening. might leave to go have lunch at the strip club since everything here is done.

Hoosier Posted September 8, 2017 Share Posted September 8, 2017 I only have very basic knowledge of internal hurricane processes, ERC's etc, so I don't really comment on that stuff. It would be nice if others would do the same, or at least not act so definitive if they aren't sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not you, just in general. Coverage in both the media and threads here have seemed So Flo centric. I get there there are a lot of people down there but there are other high population densities as well. Roughly 2/3s of the state population DOESNT live in So Flo and to see that ignored is a little irritating. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JC-CT Posted September 8, 2017 Share Posted September 8, 2017 1 minute ago, NJwx85 said: Yes indeed, the 12z ECMWF does make landfall in Cuba, however at least that part of Cuba is flat, relatively speaking, and the Northern eyewall remains mostly over water. And then Irma is back over water by hr 36, so the trip over land is under 12 hours. And 50% of the people reading the main thread now think that this is how you weaken a hurricane.
