I hope Erin makes the turn to the north. I am in Central Florida and Hurricane Ian did a number on my property. Two huge oak trees were uprooted and many shingles ripped off my roof. Many days with out power. I patched the roof and then last year got hit by hurricane Milton. No trees lost, but my roof was torn up badly and gaain, many days without power. I had a metal roof put on last fall, but don’t want to test it so soon.

It’s Category 3 right now. That’s something, sure. But they’re trying to say it’s the end of the world.

Erin is going to be a fish storm by consistant forecast models over the last few days.

It may move closer to the east coast, though, so parts of the NE coast is going to get battered with high waves and rip currents.

There is though, a potential system of concern that follows erin, that has been showing up in models, but is so far out, model runs have it going all over the place.

It’s showing up as a cat 4 storm making landfall at the end of the month. On different forecast it goes through the keys into the Gulf of America and hitting New Orleans, or it goes into the east coast anywhere from N Florida to North Carolina, and a few european models have it recurving out to sea.

The nhc is already showing that there’s something with a potential developement over the next week.

It’s still not expected to make landfall in the US although the POSSIBILITY cannot be ruled out.

Hurricane tracks are notoriously difficult to forecast. Far too many variables involved.

Does this mean that all that garbage stacked up on Puerto Rico may get washed ashore in Miami?

Uh ohhhh John Kerry and Greta are right, the ice caps will melt, Florida will be under water and this is the thousand year storm because we’re not sending money to paris.

They keep saying Erin is going to turn right and run up the coast where it will blow out in the cold waters of the North Atlantic.

But what if it doesn’t. What if it turns a little and slams into the coast of North Carolina. Could Cape Hatteras survive a direct hit from a hurricane? What would happen inland if the barrier beach was blown completely away?
