$100k in damage?
I would rebuild. I live at my fishing camp (sold my home and moved to the camp) I build everything to begin with.

$100k wouldn’t even replace the outdoor setups in many areas.
You lose a roof on a $15M house in Rosemary and you’re talking millions in losses from water and wind damage alone.

Based on that run, Tampa looks to be the recipient of a direct strike from a 4 or 5.

They’re making the GFS look conservative and they’re all looking at Thursday landfalls now.
I thought Thursday early afternoon had been the consensus all day Sunday?

If it threads that needle it will be bad

Well, where is it? The last update was at 1AM (CDT) which is 5+ hours ago. I thought maybe the models were too out of control and they were afraid to post something that disjointed.
The NHC doesn’t issue advisories on invests unless they are a threat to land within 48 hours, in which case they’ll issue an advisory on a potential tropical cyclone.

Where in Louisiana do you have $1,100 homeowners premiums? Damn.

When they were first discussing this storm it was generally accepted it was going to float off towards Texas, then head NE and gain strength with a Saturday landfall somewhere.
I think the Thursday change while discussed here very early as a possibility was not the initial message people heard if they were paying attention early on.

But they usually update the cone and give an update on the outlook for the area of interest every 3 hours. The latest one came out at 7:32 AM (EDT).

Oh you’re talking about the tropical weather update. That’s not really a cone or anything but I get it.

Self insurance has its limits, for single family nothing special 200k home that can be easily accomplished if you have the wealth and income, but a multi-million dollar home on the beach that has been multiplying in value compared to inflation. That maybe a tough rebuild being a self insured depending on the level of damage. It would just depend on income and what is saved up and access to extra cash without having to borrow money. Because the minute you mortgage or go the SBA route you are back in the insurance rat race.

Yes, w/o getting bogged down in semantics, they are both 'cones' of probability relating where the system is expected to be several days out into the future.

Fox 8 just said the GFS & Euro are like the WNBA, not worth watching. They’re already locked into the GRAF for this one.

6z HMON takes it to a Category 4 story at 117kt in 72 hours.
6z HWRF does the same.
Both have landfall in Big Bend area.
HMON up to 119kt (Cat 4)
HAFS-A up to 137kt (Cat 5)
HAFS-B up to 140kt (Cat 5)
