3 days? Really? Just when did this thing even start, let alone they have been talking about it being a strong hurricane?
Yes. The NHC has harped on rapid intensification potential in every discussion since this thing was a depression. We've had models for at least two days saying 50% chance of rapid Intensification.
It pays to read the discussions.

Looking to me on the models they're still showing a far east Louisiana landfall then a turn NE. I'm wondering if that track holds how far inland the storm goes before it makes the NE turn especially with the way the storm seems to keep speeding up.

Have you not payed any attention to the other Hurricanes this season?

I just wanna know why an official statement was released saying max75 mph winds.
Seems quite misleading if that's not that forecast

No prediction has ever given a "real possibility" of cat 2 winds. Zero

No surprise, #Nate now a hurricane, look for a strong Cat 1 or Cat 2 at landfall tomorrow night. Details: bit.ly/2xn0o5f #lawx

Except the guy on the weather channel just said there is no reason to think that with current developments and conditions there is no reason to think Nate won't continue to intensify as it moves across the gulf.
Also said that predictions of 85 and storm surge predictions can be thrown out the window as they stand now if that happens
Pretty sure he knows what he is talking about more than you
I know he knows more about ratings and how to pump them.

It has 24 hours
They are predicting max75 mph winds
Are they wrong?
They said the same about Harvey before it blew up overnight.

Harvey went super Sayien 4 in 24 hours.
I don't expect Nate to do that.

frick. We can be looking at 100mph winds when this thing lands
That looks like the low end of what you would expect at this point.

Forecast can change. These threads are full of people that know what they are talking about and they always say to watch it as it gets closer because conditions change.

Are you saying this thing started on October 3? And on October 3rd they predicted a strong hurricane making landfall?

Define "real possibility"
30 hours ago the HWRF, a hurricane intensity forecast, suggested borderline Cat 3 winds.
You also said this 27 hours ago:

FWIW, the 10PM update had maximum winds of 85mph right before landfall.

Have you ever seen a more inaccurate post?

Who sent the trolls into this thread all of a sudden?

If we can't trust our forecast within 24 hours than that is slightly concerning

2-3 days for sure. I never saw anything about "strong hurricane", but it was always predicted at least as a non major hurricane from the NHC

Yes, it is concerning. Intensity forecasting is still very difficult.
