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


No. They harped on the potential for a stronger storm than was being projected. Repeatedly. Consistently.

Possibility being a key word. They've said intensity was highly uncertain. The NHC hedged stronger than the models because conditions looked favorable. They said multiple times their forecasts may be low because of the possibility of a rapid intensification.

No one was predicting a Cat 3 straight out, but the possibility has been noted quite a bit.

Tornados and super cells can pop up with less that 15mins to warn.

How many times have you seen 20% chance of rain and been soaked or 80% chance and not a drop in sight. Weather forecasting is nothing more than an educated guess... at best.

Literally the only reason I am saying that is because Nate will run out of time and water.

AF going for another pass, does pressure continue to drop and has the eye fully close off?

I can't believe we're flipping the frick out over a "bad" forecast that hasn't even materialized yet. The NHC said 80-85mph at landfall, Nate is currently at 75mph, and only has 24ish hours to go until that landfall.

If it comes ashore at 100mph, then we can bitch.

The RI odds are from 8pm. Nate has changed a lot since then. Those percentages may go up

That's exactly right. Hurricanes are, at the very least, slightly concerning.

Are you being serious right now questioning hurricane forecasts? Have you ever followed one? Things tend to change. But overall this forecast has been acceptably accurate.

Nah, I'm not flipping out. I'm prepped for a 3 no problem. It has been a while since I stayed up watching overnight development though.
