In 24 hours it went from a Cat 1 to basically a Cat 5. That is ridiculous.

Ugly. No break for eyewall to pass. Straight storms on “tougher” side of hurricane.

I’m settled into bed for the night. I’ll bounce between TD, my ring doorbell, and my pop’s weather station. I’ll post anything interesting here.

Very bad. North East quadrant of a hurricane is the worst.

Rum, so looks like landing just east of the TX/LA border? Gotta say, models were right on it for the last 48 hours.



Cameron has essentially been the center point for all NHC track shifts for the past 2 days.

This is right about the time when I am sort of glad our DSLD house in Youngsville didn't work out.

That seems way way too low. 35mph isn’t going to topple an ambulance.

It happens. Hurricanes ramp up as fast as the conditions allow them. It's a positive feedback loop as long as there is little shear, warm enough water, and no dry air to get pulled in.

As a gust, it’s not. They stop at 35 sustained. Gusts would be upwards of 45 with that sustained wind

My brother texted from the hospital in LC asking to pray for a direct hit to LC as opposed to being in the east side. Not working.
