You need to already be planning, IMO. An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure here. Irma is a mean bitch.

which would surprise me that the NHC wouldn't have a plane doing low level recon in this storm 34/7 at this point
only an upper level recon plane testing the outer edge of the storm currently
ETA: in fact NOAA9 looks to have left the storm to go check on something else

Thanks for the advice guys. I'll take it.

This blows. I really don't want to have to leave my place. Go stay in some shitty hotel in Lakeland for a week, that sounds awesome.

Have you seen that weather underground article about a Cat 4 at high tide? Absolutely insane. This is THEORETICAL Tampa Storm Surge Potential
I would strongly urge people to look at this for your state unless you wanna have the runs the rest of the day!

Weather guys at what point can we really start to get confident that the track and forecasted turn will happen? Do the ridges and fronts have to be in place at any set time for the predictions to be accurate.

Hurricane Donna (1960) for you history buffs
Hurricanes still got lost in 1960.
They know how to find the GOM now.

Barbuda looks like it may take a direct hit.
For anybody that's not been there before Anegada is done since it's flat and will almost surely be either taking the eye or the northern eye wall. Barbuda, Anguilla, St. Martin/St. Maerten, and the BVI are going to be shelled too. Interested to see the stormcarib reports after it passes.

The Great New England Hurricane, also known as The Long Island Express and Yankee Clipper, was a Category 3 storm that struck Long Island and Connecticut on September 21, 1938. The storm arrived without warning at an extremely high tide, causing 12-25-foot surges throughout southern New England. Sustained winds of 121 mph were reported, downing power lines and blowing roofs off of houses. Due in part to the lack of warning, this hurricane caused 600-800 fatalities and $308 million in damages.
On September 19, weather forecasters were predicting that the hurricane would strike Florida. Late in the day on the 19th, the storm turned north. Forecasters, figuring that the hurricane was heading out to sea, issued high wind warnings and called it a day. But conditions in the North Atlantic caused the storm to triple in speed. It traveled 425 miles in less than eight hours.

My mother has a friend on St. Martin who is hunkered down and planning to ride it out.

Those of us that live here also really hope your travel plans aren't delayed or anything.
