Florence has a huge windfield to her NE.



Also has a clear double wind maximum indicating she's still trying to replace the inner eyewall.

Based on what Levi said not a lot. Probably mid-cat 4

If it gets its shite together again would be impressive enough. Conditions for any substantial strengthening aren't ideal between here and landfall.

She's still going to be a bitch though.

It's nothing scientific, it just looks like Superstorm Sandy.

I can feel The Weather Channels disappointment as this storm slowly gets more and more ugly and disorganised.

The Weather Channel


Has become a complete joke. They can hype the hell out of anything and they get worse every year. They had a reporter in Charlotte yesterday talking about whether or not the skyscrapers could withstand the winds. Last year they had a reporter in Bham for Tropical Storm Nate and they talked about the strong winds we were supposedly sustaining. Really playing it up. I was literally less than a mile from them and was sitting on my back porch.

the question remains if it'll actually survive past 3 days b/c of all that headwind it's running into

if it makes it to the back half of the Caribbean still a storm... where Levi said shear may diminish... then I'll start to get a bit concerned

It seems this the thread turned to a lot of wish casting

Isaac has aids at the moment. Literally no convection. Just an open swirl.

She looks awful there. Its hard to even identify how wide the eye is, and theres a large gap in the southern portion of the storm, not just the eyewall.

This is the worst she has looked since redeveloping into a hurricane.

Hard to believe Isaac is a TS with 60 mph winds at this point. Looks like a disorganized wave
