Suicide by hurricane would not be my method of choice.

I met a few people there this summer. Their houses were solid concrete, concrete/sand floors, and no windows. Very basic.

I've been there, and short of the old fort, I wouldn't want to be anywhere near there.

Lighten up Francis. The sarcasm was dripping in my thread and it just went "whoosh!" right over your head.

I'll be curious to see how far it weakens as it approaches the US.

After every update this thread does a cattle call for Peej and Hurricane history lessons from memory. Then people will complain for 4 pages that the thread is somehow sacred from this. Then the people that swear that all forecast models are wrong and everything points to the GOM. Then the ones that are hoping for the best and see nothing but dependence on the forecast models (in which these people could be the dumbasses) repeat and rinse.repeat and rinse.

So is the forecast that coastal Georgia is fricked? Because I just finished repairs from the last hurricane a few weeks ago.

And a lot of them miss the east coast of Florida all together. So much variance still.

just don't understand how something that big, that powerful, makes a 90 degree turn north...


I'm still sticking with my prediction that it won't, especially if it stays that far south in Cuba. It will turn more gradually and hit the eastern half of the panhandle. I don't think the shortwave will be strong enough to turn a storm that strong that fast

I'm sure the people monitoring the weather aren't the ones steering the ships.


Maybe they should help.

This is going to be the scariest moment for those of us in the Gulf when Irma is holding on by a kunt hair. 82W 23N it's going to look like it's going into the GOM just look at that!!!


A 50 mile difference in Irma south or the shortwave north could mean the difference in it turning into Florida or breaking free and heading toward Destin or mobile
