Hurricane Matthew Live Thread II
NOAA/NHC ^ | October 6 2016 | NOAA/NHC

Posted on 10/06/2016 4:10:09 AM PDT by NautiNurse

Hurricane Matthew is big, bad and just downright scary, with iminent and sustained impacts to U.S. mainland. Florida Governor Rick Scott issued a state of emergency for all of Florida and disaster operations are activated. More than 1.5 million Floridians reside in current evacuation zones. Governor Scott has spoken with utilities across the state to ensure utilities are pre-positioned and there are no unmet needs. Multiple coastal hospitals have been evacuated. Meanwhile, feckless President Barack Hussein Obama is personally monitoring the progress of the storm.

Outer eyewall looks fully contracted in that image.

Have you seen the other hurricane, Nicole, looming out in the Atlantic? Yikes.

Oh they are working on it. During Gov. Scott’s Q&A after statement this evening, he got the question that the Hillary campaign wants to know if he is going to extend voter registration and/or expand means to vote. He basically said No, people have had plenty of time to register and there are many ways to vote, then he said again, No, not changing anything. I told my husband, it’s a setup, so they can complain later when they lose FL.

it was noted earlier on the news that only 30% had evacuated the beaches. to me that is insane. of course some might think we are crazy because we are 9 miles from the beach. but we are not in any evacuation zone.

Hurricane Hunters found 100 mph winds in outer eyewall, according to TWC. Given the expanded size of the storm, that could be very significant given the eventual track. And it also enhances the storm surge possibilities.

Someone posted this as being an Ike pic which I've never seen in response to a guy who was tying his boat to some palm trees in FL, riding it out.

I thought it a hoax until I realized it does look like the beginning of the bridge, and the truck wears it's insp/dps pics like we do (did) in TX, even though I can't make out the plates.

MATT DRUDGE ‏@DRUDGE 4h4 hours ago Direct eyewall hit for Freeport in next hour. Will ground observations match the Hurricane Center's claimed 140 mph sustained winds?

Do you have a particular location that you are concerned about? The forecast changes incrementally hour to hour.
