just a little further south!!!,...break the circulation...grrr
I really think this nose dive into Cuba will be a game changer.
me too.....
the media is so excited....they got their climate change bull ready to go...can hear it now...
It went to Cat 5 in its current position. Cuba is nearly pancake flat in that region. It will not have a significant impact, and the NHC discussion said just that.
Over Macho Grande?
I agree.
I would love to see it continue this dive and exit the bottom of Cuba.
Why not? Wouldn't it be grand if just like the election, all the forecasters were wrong?
thats why they give a forecast every 3 hours...ON ALL WEATHER!!....they are just guessing.
Thank you.
These Weather Channel goons are just foaming at the mouth. Would love to watch the starch melt out of their overhype right about now.
Joe Bastardi on Hannity saying likely making landfall near Naples/SW coast.
Sunday afternoon worse in Miami.
Comparing with 1935 hurricane
W Palm, Tampa, Orlando 100 mph winds Sunday afternoon.
Even ATL could get hurricane gust winds out of this.
Oh, puh-leeze. They had this basic track down 3 days ago. A
Awful lot of American naval assets are already in the neighborhood.

That’s the conventional thinking. Gotta think outside of the box!
Die deep in Cuba Irma, you ugly beast!
Irma looks like she had a sex change. The impact reaches so far!
The trough is still too far off to have an effect. It also looks to me like the ridge may at present be pushing a bit harder than expected. Ie., maybe 50-100 miles additional “push”? But, both the “cone” and many models allowed for such. (Any one model “track” should be interpreted as, just to make up some numbers, “10% chance the center will be at “xy” location on the track at time “t”, 90% chance it will be somewhere else, but less than 10% chance at any other particular location than “xy” at “t”.)
(My apologies to any “real” meteorologists reading that crude explanation with fabricated numbers! Maybe one can explain it better...)
The question is, what shape will Irma be in when she (likely) makes the turn?
that Cantore dude was having an orgasm today...makes me sick.
