Not true. I lived out in the country in E Feliciana during Andrew. I saw wind snap pine trees half way up during the storm.



After Michael, entire pine forests in the panhandle were snapped at about 20 feet. It was freaky, and could be seen from space.

Flight level winds don't translate to ground level winds equally.

I’m from there, live in Thibodaux now. Maybe the DG in Montegut will get trashed and they’ll bring price’s back

Can it drop it down from a 4 to a 3?
Not much, but it'll make me feel better

Probably not. An EWRC would halt ongoing strengthening, but it would likely maintain what intensity it has, particularly this close to landfall.

Thanks

I'm an idiot and not sure if I'm missing something but those wind speeds look low to me vs what I would have expected.

Who the hell is this state trooper on WAFB? He looks like they found a male stripper at the club last night and asked him to go back to the studio with them.


Is that the one with the Ken doll hair cut?

Michael didn’t officially become a 5 until well after the damage assessments.




And Andrew's South Florida status was upgraded to Cat 5 years later. Couldn't do it at the time because it destroyed all the wind measuring equipment in South Florida.

Glad you didn't wait for an alert to signal you it was time to get out.
