Nice catch. So if the storm makes landfall at the state line, the cone will have missed it by 5 miles.
Dude, their cone that encompasses 200 miles or so missing at all isnt good

Also, it wasn’t as much of a concern for her about damage, it was really about being 68 and having no utilities on the island for 7-8 days. We had already convinced her to fill up her bath tub with water and stuff, but with mandatory evacuations and how long it could linger, she’s leaving. If it was a faster moving storm of same or stronger she would stay. She’s a stubborn arse woman

Got A problem with me giving my opinion????


Yes. Because you have proven yourself with astonishing efficacy to be the biggest idiot on the board, have been told time and time again no one wants your opinion in these threads, yet you can’t help yourself. One more notch in your idiot totem pole.

thanks for facts dude. pretty big miss that close to landfall


A, it hasn’t made landfall.

B, The Boat knows that the cone means , but most have no clue. It’s a 1 standard deviation miss. It’s designed to catch 65% of historical errors, and they haven’t missed it yet with Sally.

If it ends up outside of the cone, sure, I’ll say they missed it, but even those misses are expected about 35% of the time.

They had some older data to support that but it's definitely not the case right now.

Well no shite...it always does. The cone is a point in time reference with a prediction of future position. However, this storm is still within original cone

The paid professionals missed landfall by their entire cone only 48 hours before landfall

So they’re closing due to anticipated hurricane conditions, but don’t assume power outages?

Alright man, they nailed it

48 hours before the storm, and where they had the landfall prediction is now expected to have virtually nothing, and where landfall may actually happen wasnt even in their cone


Im not saying we should murder them, but what would you call it?

And I’m sitting on my balcony at Orange Beach eating chicken fried rice with a slight comfortable breeze right now. It must be concentrated near the eye.

I will say that the waves are starting to get impressive for Orange Beach.
