This is just worst case scenario for this area predicted to be hit again. Tampa/ St.pete areas are already fricked by Helene if they take a direct hit with 15 ft or higher storm surge it's turn the lights out the party's over there. Its been close to a one hundred fifty years since a storm has taken this same storm track starting from the Mexican coast and heading east across the gulf into this area of Florida. Prayers again to this area

Dangerous situation unfolding across the Gulf. This will be a tough call for the Tampa area. Stronger system might miss them to the north (which will still be bad for Tampa), and a weaker system might slide south.

If it goes slower, does it churn up the cooler waters which can work to weaken it? That was discussed last week, is that still in play?

That would only come into play if the system was stationary for a period of time. It will be moving plenty quick over very warm waters.

Yuppers, did that yesterday as well as the liquor and grocery store run for extra supplies. Husband's firing up the generator today to make sure that's hopefully still good to roll.

Then bring the lawn projectiles into the garage Tuesday and play the waiting game.

Be safe.

HAFS B seems to be handling things best this morning, and it might even be too slow with organization. It does weaken the system to the 940s before landfall.

Too early, but the pattern remains supportive.

If this thing does make it to a Cat 5 is the expectation of it rapidly weakening by 60 mb reasonable?


Small core.

The weakening mechanism at landfall is dry air getting worked into the center. Rapid weakening would be the result if a big slug of the dry stuff gets worked into that core.
