You should be fine. No rain but be prepared for double red flags all weekend. The rough surf usually lasts a few days after the storm makes landfall, even if that landfall is way south.

Michael was as bad/worse as any. Good luck with Ian.

If this comes through Bradenton, or Tampa, as a cat 4-5, the tree population will be decimated.
If that’s the case, hopefully it’s slightly south of Bradenton as that will spare the surge going into Tampa Bay.

I feel fine for us right now with how it's tracking but I hate wishing storms on others

worst case scenario there.

little bit farther west by Cuba, but shows it getting influenced by the front more and hooks it harder east
eta: also weakens it significantly

Upper levels are explosive, as has been mention before. Miss the land interaction and it'll get strong.

Good run by the GFS, shows it weakening significantly before landfalling as a TS

Like to see that

Looks like the GFS backed off that stall a bit it had in previous runs.

Here's an interesting note....
There's a hurricane about to make landfall with a 38° wind chill.
ETA: And I'm calling it a hurricane because Fiona fricking well earned it.

GFS has it increasing 50mb in like 36 hrs on approach to landfall.
That is some serious pucker factor for Tampa people.
Cat 4 heading toward to you and it comes in as tropical storm. Gah talk about.
Posted on 9/24/22 at 12:01 am to tgrgrd00
reminds me of Hurricane Lili, Cat 4 in the gulf only to landfall as barely a hurricane

That seems like a best case scenario for now. That run has some nasty rainfall totals but they’re all in the GOM. The same thing causing it to slow down and meander a bit is also tearing it apart with dry air intrusion on that run…
