I just hear my heart thumping, hard to imagine such a beast making a turn like that.

What makes a storm that feeds off warm water avoid the gap under Florida and run along the coast like hat? Just dry air being enough to force it out of the gulf?
The storms don't really go to warm water. They're controlled by currents in the atmosphere at various levels. They're basically trying to get north, and when a situation presents itself, such as a weakness in a ridge, they'll shoot the gap.

You think 930 is strong? I hear at 895 that there's a chance a portal to the gates of hell opens up.

I mean anything more than what it is right now is still the same sort of destruction. So nothing has really changed in term of strength.

It's 918mb as of the last recon pass.
I wouldn't get too caught up in the particulars with the strength. It will be a very strong storm if the track verifies - that's a safe bet.

My be nerdish, but I love weather talk, pure poetry. That one meteorology class I took at AU was a snooze fest.

This has been explained no less than 100 times this thread. At least 100.

Charleston looks doomed

A storm this strong and this powerful, does it even weaken anywhere in Florida? What's the strongest the winds could reach somewhere in the middle of the state? Say Orlando, Lake Okeechobee, etc as opposed to the coast?
