I’ve been through more storms to remember (by the beach in Juno since the mid-80’s), and it seems to me that the Gulf (both sides) dishes out more storm surge than the Atlantic.
I liken this storm to Andrew - had it hit Ft. Lauderdale instead of Homestead. But even well south of Miami (the universal sea level city joke), there wasn’t anything like what we’re watching.

Even though I don’t live in California now, when we had earthquakes or fires or mudslides, I didn’t appreciate caustic remarks. There are still many good and decent people in California.

150 mph sustained winds = CAT 4
Equivalent EF 3 tornado winds are 136 mph to 165 mph for perspective.

Btw, my brother is in Palm Bay. He said this is his 29th hurricane.

A few years ago I attended a national business meeting in the Ft. Myers area. Wonderful hotel right on the beach. Beautiful part of town. Delightful meeting with really nice weather.
Sad to think of it being ripped apart by a hurricane.

Visited Pine Island two years ago. Nice area, the locals all described it as ‚Old Florida‘. Hope everyone is okay.

Right! This is the best and most informative hurricane thread.
Thank you, nauti nurse, and all on-location contributors.

I’ve either read somewhere or was told that the Gulf has a very gradual depth gradient for a long way offshore. Allegedly, this allows a higher surge buildup.

Hate the weather, love your threads, Nauti.
Northwest 30-40 min of O-Town and the theme parks. Wind gusts are starting to pick up, maybe 40-50 mph or so, otherwise overcast but bright. Intermittent rain. Looks like the worst will be for us here in the Thursday AM.
To: Billthedrill
150 mph I've experienced Typhoon Rose in 1971 with 105 mph winds and Typhoon Hope in 1979 with 145 mph winds in Hong Kong, both inside an apartment building built to withstand typhoon weather. The very loud winds and extremely intense rain is something you don't want to experience again anytime soon.

The storm surge is so powerful from #HurricaneIan that it has brought a shark into the city streets of Fort Myers.
