Anyone hear from Wxwatcher recently 

I heard from him about 45 min ago....said he was losing signal. The strongest part of the eyewall looks like its going to go right over him in Perry, FL....ironically the strongest part of the eyewall in this storm was the NW side.

I’m ok. Very bad signal. Absolutely extraordinary eyewall in Perry. Extensive tree damage and significant roof damage throughout the area. Not just uprooted, snapped in half. Incredible lightning as well. It was insane.

Will post more when I can.

Forecast landfall location of Steinhatchee, FL was perfect for Idalia, however, the forecast timing was too late by 90 minutes and the intensity was 10MPH too intense (125MPH vs 135MPH).
My thoughts as to why to inform better future forecasts are included.
FINAL GRADE: A

Nice job. Always look forward to your thoughts. Although the center was just to my SE it worked out perfectly because I got the mean part of the eyewall. Never seen lightning like that in an eyewall and literally heard no thunder. 

Will get to videos tomorrow.

Nice Don good Cat 1 stuff

Think it was higher than that but good stuff regardless. Laura was in a different class. What was the landfall pressure? I got down to 960.1.
