Yes. The eye passed south of them. It's still going to be bad, but it could be worse.


Looks to me like Provo got the eyewall.

ow many EWR has she had?


It seems like a lot However, there really isn't a hard and fast def of what constitutes a full ERC. The physics behind them poorly understood and they are basically impossible to predict. Given the inability to predict them, they are probably triggered by mesoscale or stormscale processes that the models can't resolve.

Currently in Orlando and Leaving Disney in the morning. Looks like I-75 is gonna be a parking lot. Anybody with a better route. Thinking 75- US27- US 19 to I-10


Look into just to the drive to Tampa on 4 then north on 589 to 98 up to Tallahassee. Two lane road most of the way but it works. Granted not sure where you are going, but I assume west of there.

My dumbass brother is still in Key West, so he can "see what it looks like tomorrow morning" before deciding to leave or not.

Safe to say, my family is pissed at his decision making skills.


Have your brother take a look at these pictures. This is what hurricane Camille did. This is like Camille, only bigger. Notice a great number of the completely destroyed structures were made out of stone and cinderblock.

On CNN now they just interviewed one guy that put it pretty plainly (Interviewed Craig Fugate...former administrator of FEMA). He said that for the people in areas under mandatory evacuation....if they don't leave...they will drown.

Basically saying those in the mandatory evacuation areas...water is their #1 threat.

Surge/flooding is always the #1 threat.

Camille was horrific. I've never seen anything like that since.
