Satan Shoal buoy 42095 SW of Key West already up to 10 foot significant waves.
Who names these buoys anyway?

Katrina was the perfect buzzsaw. Just think what the damage could have been if it hadn’t been downgraded before it hit.

Katrina did more damage as weakening storm than it would have as a Cat 5 moving at a decent clip. The weakening is what fricked Nola.

Really, there is not much of a danger to be had with the flooding and most of this is all overreaction. For an practical example, take a look at this “Fudge Flood Cake” dessert from Applebee’s. it’s a delicious dessert but also represents our situation quite accurately. If you notice that the fudge (our water in this case) is mostly contained inside the center of the cake (eye of the hurricane) and not that much has spilled out. For hurricane ian It means the same thing: most of the water will be contained in the eye of the hurricane with little to no surge (or fudge in our example) leaking out beyond the eye wall. So as the forecast predicts that the eye will not go on shore, most of the storm surge will remain at sea. It’s best to have prepared a little bit of precautionary items like canned chili, frozen pizza, a couple liters of your favorite soft drink (for sugar/energy) but anything beyond that is pure over reaction.
Surge is from high winds pushing water ahead of the storm and the extreme atmospheric pressure drop displacing the water away from the center. It doesn’t hold the water inside the eye

Smart man. I said this in an earlier post but leaving can leave you annoyed; staying can leave you regretful. It’s a really big distinction.
There is something to be said about riding it out to secure your property and then leave if there will be extended power outages. Obviously you ability to get out should be factored into your decision.

#Ian’s pressure is absolutely tanking right now. It’s fallen from 961mb to 955mb, a rate of about 4.5mb per hour.
Rapid intensification will likely go uninhibited for much of today barring an EWRC. Shear doesn't really begin to pick up until tomorrow.

Isn’t that where the Everglades is located? So if anywhere can take a direct hit, that section of Fla would be best, correct?
Instead of sharknado we get gatorcane
Or tangled python knots, drowned python eggs, and a few very wet cougars.

It's located between Vestal Shoal and Parsonage Shoal, so maybe someone with a sense of humor.

Looks like this is going to cut East more to strengthen up a bit just to plop down in my yard as a TS instead of a TD.

Well the levees would have failed either way there is a big difference with her as a cat 5 and when she came in. Strange that Ida seemed to strengthen as it came ashore.
