NAS Jax in the Octagon? I remember one of the squadrons holding open Captains Mast in the keyway that leads to inner circle. Guy was accused of having some Coke and MJ. MJ wasn’t as big a deal then as under Carter over 75% of military was likely doing drugs. Anyways, he asked the sailor for his response - and the sailor reaches into his back pocket - pulls out his bifold wallet and flicks it and says “Beam me up Scotty”. He got the Big Chicken Dinner lol.

Track is like a lefty bowler—going straight right now, but you know at some point it’s going to hook into that pocket.
TWC needs to get someone into Perry—going to have a pretty good show there.

Going to be slow strengthening until it fixes that. Certainly looks primed to blow up on satellite.

I was just watching the towers. It isn't for lack of trying, but it just can't seem to close it off.

Big drop in pressure.

Extrap is 965 last pass. Probably 968-969 in the middle.

3 levels of Idalia

1. It's raining and a little breezy.
small gap
2. It's really getting windy and raining sideways.
another small gap
3. Aw hell, there goes the power.

A look at the latest intensity models. All kinds of interesting in those.

You probably went to the OP Holiday Inn club a time or two then. I recall racing to Happy Jax after I got off and getting a rum and coke handed to me in the drive thru and it was legal! Good times

Surprising we don’t have someone on the OT who hasn’t been a hurricane hunter. We have every other kind of baw.
