5 PM ET NHC track update is nudged 25 miles to the west, but further adjustments could be necessary.

Tallahassee = keep an eye on Idalia into overnight hours!

every time TWC mentions surge or rapid intensification


Not watching TWC, but have they done that stupid computer animation for what a 10 foot storm surge would look like?

I'm wondering whether this will affect the LSU-Florida State game.


Game is not in Tallahassee and Orlando should be fine by Sunday

Always read the discussion. The forecast times aren't catching the max. They still are forecasting a 125 mph max.

Ah, good point, thanks for pointing that out.

Yellow track is the 11AM EDT track and the blue track is the new one just updated at 5PM EDT. Red line is a hurricane warning. Tallahassee is just outside the western edge of the cone. Keep an eye on the next couple forecasts if you are in the Tallahassee region

Keep in mind the blue line is just connecting the dots. The curved line the storm will follow will actually bring it closer to Tallahassee. Looks like landfall might be near the Aucilla River now.

I flew on P-3 Orion's in the Navy back in the 70's and early 80's....That plane was a workhorse and one of the toughest in the Navy fleet.

P-3 Orion

On station, we would shut down one engine and feather the prop to save gas—that’s how much extra power it has. And built like a tank. The P-8 (737) has a much faster on-station time, but the P-3 is much more rugged!
