I won’t be even a bit surprised if she goes back up to a CAT 5.....she’s going to have a feast in the warm waters.

Irma is blowing up big right now in infrared while still on the coast of Cuba. Probably cause the sun has been heating everything up this time of day. If she ramps up to cat 5 again while still near Cuba, she is once again in control of the steering. At a Cat 5, Irma is making the climate now around her.

I’ve been in that house. It’s two stories, made of very solid coral rock and , as the article points out, is 16 feet above sea level. It survived 200 mph winds and a 22-foot storm surge in the 1935 Key West Hurricane,

Take those kitties upstairs! And also, take in every other cat on the island.

If you want to know where a Cat 5 is going, you are going to have to ask it.

The problem that Hemingway House faces is that the projections are for the wave tops to hit 40 feet in some models. If that holds true, it will not fare well. I hope everyone remains safe in spite of the choices made.

Steve and Kati are safe!!! They managed to get on a plane to Puerto Rico just ahead of Jose. Another friend has an apartment there where they can stay.

Puerto Rico had some power outages from Irma, but not nearly as much damage as St Maarten, and it’s further out of the path of Jose.

Didn’t see the dog walker but as it is a live cam, I wouldn’t catch it if he had gone inside.

I understand some of the staff stayed at Hemingway house because of the cats, both from the house and nearby feral.

How can I say this.... I know people love their pets and animals in general. I would think that loading a dozen in my car and saving some of the six toed Hemingway cats would be more loving than drowning with them.

I would be surprised if it went back to a cat 5

What is it now a very weak cat 3?

It will most likely kick back up to a cat 4 which is bad enough.

My stepsons were in the Dominican Republic with their dad and got out the day before Irma hit that island. The Canadian Charter company sent extra planes down to evacuate everyone.

It’s leaving the coast a bit ahead of scheduled isn’t it?
The models had it starting take off from Cuba a little past the tip of FLA.
