Hurricane Irma Live Thread Part II
NHC/NOAA ^ | NHC/NOAA | NHC/NOAA

Posted on 09/07/2017 8:09:47 AM PDT by NautiNurse

Dangerous Category 5 Hurricane Irma had a devastating impact on islands in the Caribbean.

Hurricane and Storm surge watches were issued Thursday morning for South Florida. The Florida Keys began evacuating visitors and residents, followed by flood zones in Miami and Miami Beach. Sarasota FL declared a local state of emergency Thursday morning.

Polk County FL Sheriff Grady Judd said Wednesday that law enforcement authorities would check the identities of people who turn up at shelters--and take to jail anyone found to have an active arrest warrant. “If you go to a shelter for Irma and you have a warrant, we’ll gladly escort you to the safe and secure shelter called the Polk County Jail... “If you have a warrant, turn yourself in to the jail — it’s a secure shelter.” Judd also posted that sex offenders and sex predators would not be admitted to the shelters. "We cannot and we will not have innocent children in a shelter with sexual offenders & predators. Period." Judd's statements unleashed a liberal firestorm via Twitter.

I can never get his page to load right....and though I caught his video from Harvey, after the fact, his ‘emotional drama’ is off the scales to say the least....even when he’s interviewed the hosts have to calm him down..LOLOL

"... dedicated people are doing their level best to try and forecast Irma ..."

And none of them have an agenda.
Right.

Looks like Irma is going to chew up a stretch of the Cuban coastline:

Their tracking has been very good. Just on the SW of their outliers so far. But they had the track pegged very good. Just now we are seeing the northern areas of Irma getting peeled off by the cold front and sent NE. So we should be seeing that influence affecting Irma now. Cold front out in front of trough.

Seriously? At this point, they don’t. If you believe otherwise, I suggest you look at the pics from Barbuda, St. Maarten or the Virgin Islands, or Turks and Caicos. This is not a false story, and frankly you are a moron for suggesting otherwise in the face of what is going down. And I have no patience for morons on an active hurricane thread.

I think that’s some sort of forecast. Even this page at the same website shows 924mb as the pressure at quad-zulu

I haven’t been paying attention since it supposedly hit cuba....though I question if it did anything other than bounce there....couldn’t find any visuals and you know I want those for confirmation...especially when these reporters are all hyped up and get things wrong in their excitement.

Besides am trying to get some things lined up for tomorrow here....got a couple great webcams of North Miami...from street to sky to land and water....also have to get Jacksonville as where I have family members.

He may be over dramatic in someways, but his live video from under the car wash during Harvey was simply one of the most intense and nail biting videos I have ever seen. He is the crocodile Dundee of storm chasing.

You can also see it here:

YES..I’m looking though to see if ‘the eye’ actually went inland....a little late I guess for that now...

Yes...I saw that and what I was referencing....I understand Jeff goes where others won’t tread...but he’s still too dramatic for me..I generally turn the sound off and just see what he’s showing.

I cannot really tell if that’s the case or if this is just a wobble.

Are you pointing at the Front running SW to NE, just South of Gainesville?
Also what do you have on why radar is showing Water Vapor only in the NW quadrant of Irma?

Starting to look like more than a wobble to the NW.

Nope.
I am not a moron.
(did you start with the personal attacks?)

I am sorry that your panties are in a bunch.
Reach deep down in your pants and dig them out.
All of the newscasters have to sell the story.
(the weather channel included)

Looking backwards and looking forwards are two different things.

Try to get a grip.
You are beginning to embarrass yourself.

No, you are a moron. You are downcasting possibly the worst possible hurricane in US history. Get lost.
