I had an aunt and uncle who were in the process of building a home during Andrew .. maybe it was just framed up? Anyway, near where the front door was going to be they put a flower pot to "make it homey". They just knew they'd return to NOTHING.
Structure was fine ... the flower pot had been knocked over but not broken.
That is probably a story that 1 our of 500 get to tell. The other 499 have very different stories. Unreal lucky

Planes up now taking upper air samples around Irma, a small armada of recon planes constantly reading the storm at the lower end and a plethora of weather balloons over the midwest. It's about the least garbage in a weather model could ask for.

I read that completely wrong. My bad.

What data dump are you referring to? Just curious
a number of National Weather Service offices have been ordered to release more weather balloons than normal
along with the Hurricane Hunter information... of which there are 3 active missions to go along with another 2 or 3 that have already finished their flights

In the past I secretly made fun of people that are joe dead serious in these threads before quickly leaving them in respect. When some fool comes in swearing upside down it's gonna hit the GOM when the threads two best models say differently for many pages- you just snap. ? God help me I am now addicted to this thread and pity the fools that come here. I may just lol at them now.
How nice of you to laugh at people who have had their lives turned upside down bc of hurricanes and may overreact just a little bc they're worried it'll happen again.

Meaning that they are all dead set on Florida with a couple other outliers on the other side in the gulf. Phrasing. Don't cause a panic
Not trying to cause panic, just posting what the model shows. Tracks are out now.

Mostly recon data from planes but I feel like there's probably more than usual balloon soundings being taken with the implications being a little more serious than normal at the moment. All of the current reading help the models everyone is looking have a better idea as to what is happening which in turn helps them be more accurate with their projections

I currently live in Ft. Lauderdale. At what point should I hit the road? I never worry about hurricanes, but I have a bad feeling about this one for some reason. Thinking about heading inland to ride this one out.
