South Florida doesn't leave a ton of options.

Definitely a little strange that they could agree so closely and then the gfs goes completely back the other way over its next 2 or 3 runs. Not excited for any landfall scenario but if it stays out of the gulf, there is always a chance it could blow out to sea. So here's hoping for a shift to the gfs.
Is there any indication it has begun its move to the northwest?

you may want to go to Tampa, or Jacksonville. If I leave I am probably going Friday night.
So you're just looking to get on the west side of the eye? I'm not really in a position to leave until work makes a decision re: closures and medical centers don't tend to do that very early.

18z HMON takes Irma down to 852mb, smashing the global record of 870mb.
HMON has been low for a while, but this is getting comical/terrifying.

Tampa Bay has not gotten hit by anything more powerful than a cat 2 in almost 100 years. Hopefully that streak remains intact this year.. unless that means it heads over here to Louisiana.

Providenciales, TCI is in trouble. Max elevation is 148 feet and most of it is flat.

HMON is banking on the Miami-Dade Megastorm to happen

The ensembles didn't change nearly as much as the operational model:
12z
18z

If that happens nd picks up speed, I think it's pushing through florida and going deeper into the gulf than previously predicted.

HMON has been throwing ridiculous pressures out for days now.

I'd like to think so, but even if it's off by, say, 40 mb, it would still be the lowest pressure of a landfalling hurricane ever recorded.

Good news for the GOM is the same model that sends it to 852 sends it up the peninsula and out into the Atlantic.

If this storms follows the last Euro and it its Ft Meyers and goes up the coast of Florida you dont want to be in Tampa
That is why I said it depends on where it is going. If it is going to run straight up the state I am going to Baton Rouge. If it is 100 miles off of Tampa, I am staying home.

Let's say it never breaks 900mb - the HMON developers need to go back to the drawing board.
They had Harvey going into the Rio Grande Valley and took Irma to never before seen low pressures.

Isn't it rare for a storm like this to maintain its strength for a long enough period of time as it will take to get to the US?

I want to be at least 80 miles from the eye. Euro says it is going to the left coast. This makes the right coast good. GFS says right coast. This makes the left coast good.
My decision will be made when we know more.
