Looking at 2100 hrs now at Naples and there’s about a 5 foot backside storm surge.
You’re welcome! We’re starting to get some heavy winds now!
Pretty sure those that loot are also shoplifters and burglars when there is no crisis situation. When there is a crisis they think people will be busy with the crisis and not able to stop them from looting so they go all out. Not exactly upstanding citizens on a good day I am sure.
“Did Shep just say they’re sending mortuary teams to the Keys?”
Speaking of the Keys, I looked back at older posts on this thread and missed anything on the damage they took.
Was Key West levelled or really beat to hell?
“Was Key West levelled or really beat to hell?”
No.
I know. I don't understand why the FNC honchos like and promote this idiot. We were subjected to him (and his hacking cough) most of today. Fortunately there are other channels to choose from...
Yes, looks like things are getting rough in your area. Hang in there, SE Mom!
Shep has the cough, the makeup, and he’s overly excited and likes telling us what we “don’t know.”
Other than being the token liberal queer, not sure what purpose he serves at the network. He’s terrible.
The Paris attacks were well covered on CNN. Fox had Shep. Was terrible.
Hate watching MSM, but I’m not watching Shep. Ever.
Several manatees have been rescued here, at one of my favorite zoos / wildlife parks: Homosassa Springs Wildlife Park
By the way... thank you, dirtboy, for all of the graphics and info you've been posting on these hurricane threads.

What a horrifying robo call. I hope that doesn't come true!
Haven't seen you on FR in three hours now... I fear you may have lost power.

Well said. WHY do the FNC honchos love this idiot so much?? If I ran that network, he would be the first to go.
Cool! I'll definitely check into it when I get a little more time. :-)
Thanks. Glad to bring this stuff over for my FRiends.
Sorry about the delayed response; Sunday stuff.
Measurements in hPa (hectoPascals) are a reading of pressure; atmospheric, in this case. Most people are used to measuring altitude in some dimension of distance Above Sea Level (ASL), but since the pressure changes with altitude, elevation can be measured in terms of typical pressure for a given altitude.
So, back to the table I posted, before: every measurement in hPA corresponds to an altitude in feet ASL with lower altitudes having higher pressures, hence the inverse relationship between the two measurements.
So it is that, at 10,000ft ASL atmospheric pressure is typically 700hPA, but only 70hPA at 60,000ft.
With all of that in mind, checking wind patterns at the 250, 500, and 700hPA levels reveals atmospheric structures at 34,000, 18,400, and 10,000ft ASL respectively that aren’t in effect at the surface.
Where did the modeled 15 foot ocean surge occur?
Right now some idiot on CNN is spouting off about all of the wind and that it is not safe to be out while she is standing out without wind, without rain. What a joke. Can't place her accent, definitely not American.
There is a difference between people smashing a store window and grabbing TVs or jewelry, or grabbing milk, bread and diapers as a survival act
