The central pressure is dropping which usually indicates a storm getting stringer but not always. I think the storm might be going thru an EWRC. When the winds catch up to that pressure after the EWRC is over you might see a storm that is stronger then 185Mph. Doesn't mean it will but all the conditions are ripe.

Confirmed strengthening. Wonder what the NE to SW pass is going to look like windspeed wise.



Kinda bummed they didn't take that pass the first time through.

Has an entire island ever been stripped completely bare?

For reference, that bitch named Camille at landfall was 909 mbar.

Typically a 185 mph Hurricane would have pressure lower than 916 mbar.

Untrained opinion, looks like GFS thinks that Atlantic ridge will weaken (I wonder if it thinks the storm itself will weaken it). This would allow the storm to sweep Northward sooner, and at hour 108 you end up with a touch and go off of Miami.



Go to Tropicaltidbits.com to look at models for yourself and make your own half-educated guesses!

GFS is turning her north quite a bit east of the FL coast.

What is the likely damage to Orlando at this point? I'm supposed to be there around Oct 1.

He made that prediction quite some time ago and he seems hopeful that his prediction will be correct rather than see millions spared.



If my prediction is correct it would directly put immediate family of mine in the path. So I'm not wishing it. I just made a statement which is in no way false. Irma is supposed to skirt the lesser Antilles and its 120 miles from there. If it doesn't make the wnw turn soon it will change the projections.

I'm not going to sit here and say it's going to turn out to sea harmlessly just because that's what you want it to do, when the likelihood of that happening isn't very high. I'd love to be proven wrong, but I don't see it.

That GFS would release a lot of puckering.
