Tally is about to get hit pretty good. Hope they are ready for lots of downed trees and no power for days on end. With the faster forward motion the wind damage may actually be enhanced in a smaller window but at the same time the threat of flooding will be diminished, somewhat.

Fack, power is out. On battery and shutting down.

Outer portion of the eye wall now less than 50 miles off shore.

Damn this thing really gathered some strength it looks like

Yep. 88 degree seawater, light to moderate shear, and fairly moist airmass = boom. This is why you can never count a storm out until it is on land.

I flew over Katrina when we left Nola for Orlando. Not much changes if it doesn't affect take off or landing.
I know it varies by storm but anybody know how high you have to fly to safely fly "over" one of these things? Usual height of cloud tops?

Another day or two over open water and instead cat 1/2, this could easily be 3/4+

Just drove Hwy 98 over Ochlockonee Bay as they are shutting down southbound traffic. It's starting to look real out in the bay, a floating fishing pier is a mess now. The marsh is up at least 2 feet already.

For those heading to the beach, traffic on I10 is at a complete standstill at the Florida border. Looks like a wreck involving an 18 Wheeler.

Outflow increasing looking better. NW spreading out nicely. Convection firing all around the center. Might get up to a 2 before landfall. I hope not, but even an intensifying 1 won't be much fun to ride out.

Watching an SGI webcam, water really starting to come up now

That's what i am thinking. Last pressure I saw was 983 and dropping. Once it gets below 980 that's in cat 2 land. She's turning into a pretty (to the eye) storm.

According to the local weather guy 30A is now officially out of the storm and willlikely not get any more rain. We only caught one band today.

would this thing break up much going across florida and into the atlantic, if it does that

Models I saw had this thing transitioning into an extra tropical storm, then going up the coast, possibly into the NE corridor. Oddly enough it might regain tropical status over the gulf stream.
