We would like to emphasize that Milton's exact landfall location is not possible to predict even at this time, particularly if the hurricane wobbles during the day and into this evening. Even at 12-24 hours, NHC's track forecasts can be off by an average of 20-30 nm. Since storm surge forecasts are highly sensitive to the exact track, this means that the realized storm surge heights across the Tampa Bay region and south may vary widely, and there will likely be a noticeable gradient of surge heights to the north of the landfall location.


Hedging bigly

Which Im actually happy to see them do

Would you look at that… like the radar was showing us. Best not miss if you come after the radar king.

I finally found a Live YouTube stream with 8 different cameras from Tampa to Key West. Shows the live radar too. Key West is getting battered

Is it projected to be a 3 or 4 at landfall? Seems like I've seen both lately.

Won’t be a 4. Even 3 is questionable.

Nhc doesn’t like to drop categories so they will probably hold it on. But the observations upon landfall will tell the story.

Proximity is not the only factor here

Just looked up her address, she's 13' above sea level.

11'-15' storm surge potential in her area so the possibility of her having a foot or two is certainly there.

the interactive cone map is a good visual, better than the static cone map

Pressure up like 20 mb in 2-3 hours. Might be 960 or more by landfall

It went from late August Gulf to late October Gulf in a couple of days. A bigger storm might have fended it off longer. But it’s small size is also a reason why it bombed out so fast.

Total distance between center of cone at shoreline from first advisory to current one is only 12 miles.

But with the small size of Milton, that 12 miles +/- wherever eventual landfall is will be a huge difference in local impacts.
