Was talking extratropical transition earlier today with someone.

It's starting.

That dry slot on the SE side is a good sign, as well as the front dragging to it's S. It's still got convection at the center, so the core is working a warm-core process. This is how it eventually ends for a hurricane but a slow moving version for Ian it looks like.

Local stations are saying landfall between 12-1400 and more likely out of the area around 2100. I know with the tides today, Garden City was already flooding a little bit. Good news is that majority of the rivers are low and not expected to flood like they did during 2015, Matthew, or Florence

One of our local weatherman was talking about that earlier this evening. Sounded like this thing will fall apart fairly quick once it gets back on land.

I'm hoping all that is good news

It is.

This is the beginning of the end.

Theres still a moist bubble near the core and its firing storms around it. So its tropical still and producing all the threats of a big Cat 1 hurricane (the extra surge version).

It'll transition ET fast on land, spreading out the rain and the wind (but reducing it).

TWC just said that Ian hit the same spot as Charley and could make the second landfall in South Carolina close to where Charley made landfall.

Which was only a glancing blow. Just like for Florida Ian will have a much bigger impact in South and North Carolina than Charley had.

Ian slamming in to shore perpendicularly will increase impacts considerably.

GA isn’t a state. They are a commie territory.

One of our properties in Venice got hit bad. Pool cage destroyed, roof torn apart, flooding in the ceiling, etc. What's the best way to document this for insurance? Any other tips?

It was windy at noon in Raleigh at noon yesterday, almost 15 hrs ago. The hurricane was 500 miles away as well.

Photos and videos of your home/property/vehicles. Helps if you took some before as well.

Can never have enough.

Photograph/list every personal item thrown out also. Build a spreadsheet for insurance.

Photograph inside of refrigerator/freezer before emptying.

Keep ice cold Gatorade and beer for linemen. Make friends with them. They alone hold the answer to the holy grail of questions: “When will my balls get A/C again?”

Gas receipts.

Also- FEMA will typically reimburse you for the purchase of a generator and chainsaw for clean up

We just lost power (in Sebring). We’ve had it the whole time during the hurricane (except for it going on and off several times during the storm). Most of our county is without electricity. Anyone know why we would lose it now (it’s been about 24 hours since the storm passed)?

Probably had to shut it down to work on other lines within your grid.
