Now there's a freeper with his priorities in order! ;-}
Was it the GFDL that went loopy this afternoon?
Looks like she hasn't weakened any further. The drop from 175 to 160 was probably due to the eyewall replacement that's been going on.
I'd buy plenty of Franco American in the pop up can. And of course Oreos. And Little Debbies.
I doubt it. The main question in my mind is if she goes into Mexico first. If it misses Mexicon, I'd say my idea of 105-115 at landfall would be about right. Perhaps much weaker if it goes over Mexico. If that happens, it will only re-emerge after getting kicked by the trough, so it won't strengthen much, if it all.
Yes, the 12z GFDL seems to have been a blip of some sort. It's back much closer to its idea prior to that run... closer to the east coast late in the period.
I just went to "your" website- WOW..it's terrific! Right down to damage estimates by county!
In this model...NN and I do NOT like the gold/tan line..going through Tampa across the state...who does that belong to?
Walmart didn't have any suitable little grills so I decided if we lose power, I'll eat stuff cold. Walmart was really packed today, especially the canned food aisle. I don't plan on waiting for Fema, Jeb or my mayor to feed and water us. Next thing you know, Geraldo would be here trying to carry me to a helicopter.
The site was made by the University of Central Florida. They collaborated with the University of Minnesota on the mapping system. The damage estimate thing is neat, but hasn't seemed to be super accurate based on what I have seen. It's good for a general idea in that area though.
GFDL has me quite worried. NE quad winds could bring surge right into Miami.
You're welcome and thanks to backhoe and US Army EOD. I didn't think about it before but I can take 2-3 RV's in this emergency too.
Now, is my arm suppose to hurt so much after I got a pneumonia shot in it about 11:30AM today?
Recommend: take a couple of Advil.
I don't think surge will be all that big of an issue with this storm for the U.S.
Make that FL. If the GFDL is right, which is not likely, a hurricane/hybrid moving 60mph into RI might cause some surge.
Sounds like either the nurse hit muscle OR you were watching the syringe and tensed up. It get four shots a week for allergies. The trick is look the other way when getting shots so you don't tense up and the needle goes in straight & easy. Do that and all you'll ever likely feel is a mild sting for a second.
Thanks...should I call you tomorrow? lol

It's good to see you haven't lost your sense of humor, in the face of another hurricane.
