By 11pm EDT Irma will have been a Category 5 hurricane for 72 consecutive hours (and counting)! This crushes the previous record.
9:42 PM - 7 Sep 2017
Yes it should shatter the 78 hrs.

I don't like the 11pm forecast...getting too close to the GOM

Sorry. I was parroting the Savannah local news. They've started talking about where everyone is evacuating to.
I'd recommend following your local NWS branch. Much less hype and more relevant.

This is fake news. It's been 63 hours as of 11 pm

Your robots and series of tubes can only do so much. Gut feelings are much more dependable.

I'm sure this has been mentioned in the thread already, but I haven't had much time to look at this thread tonight. Anyway, NHC is sending some of its forecasters to the National Weather Service's Weather Prediction Center in Maryland in case NHC loses comms during landfall (NHC is in Miami). That way WPC can take over for NHC and they will have hurricane forecasters there. The NHC building itself is built to withstand a Category 5 hurricane, so the people in it should be fine, it's just the loss of communications that is of major concern.
Don't see that often.

Its following the Euro track to a science which predicted this same tract on 9/4

But it wasn't expected. We're all awaiting the turn north. Two days ago the models had it turning north and barely hitting Miami. Now it's nearing the gulf. I can tell you just showed up today

Watch out saying this. I said I hope it doesn't continue on its route and go into the gulf the other day and people started crying and RA'ing me.

Weird how the movement after the turn north has shifted from a slight NNE movement to now a slight NNW movement.
I wonder if on the next Euro run it doesn't take as hard of a turn and rounds it out a bit.

I wonder if the individual Hurricane Center guys, if given the choice, would rather get to stay in Miami or go to Maryland.
You'd figure they have studied hurricanes their whole lives, will finally get to see one in person, or would they want to play it safe and GTFO.

So about the shortwave interaction that is expected to pull it west as it comes up Florida:
1. How volatile are shortwaves? Can it just completely crap out and hurricane blow past it on trajectory not expected by models?
2. Are the models estimating the shortwave to be of a certain strength which has not yet been attained and if so, how good are the models at predicting the strengths of these steering features?

Just a hypothetical question if this count reaches the GOM. How warm is the water in the GOM after Harvey? This question takes the Rosa Parks of backseat of questions when jt comes to Irma. If you choose not to answer then sobeit.

It's always been projected to turn north around Saturday night
Just because it hasn't turned today doesn't mean it won't in 2 days

At this point, the destruction this hurricane will cause to so many people I know (including myself) is so overwhelming things have become comical.
This path is close to the worst possible scenario, and every update gets worse.
