It looks like Hurricane Bonnie, 2022. Bonnie was able to get over the Central American mountains still partially intact so it reformed over the Pacific. It's not so much that it headed west, it just didn't kill itself hitting Central America.

48K without power in Indianapolis since around 6:30 last night. Thank God for our new generator. My wife is on oxygen and needs electricity. It’s been running for over 17 hours.
Thanks for mentioning this. I hadn’t heard about it. Thankfully it sounds like the river crested earlier this morning and is now receding, and the dam is expected to hold.

I believe we may have inadvertently found their motive, Holmes!

It didn’t breach. Overtopped but held. Waters are receding. Hope your family is safe.
My mother and I had left Miami on a Carnival ship on Saturday, 22 August 1992.
At that time Hurricane Andrew was out at sea and expected to curve and go up the coast.
We had left Mom’s car in the pier parking lot.
The ship had been routed to the west of the Bahamas, so we didn’t have any bad weather at all.
The family was frantic until we got into San Juan and could call them from a pay phone.
Nobody knew whether we would be able to go back into Miami because the airports were closed for days.
They did open just in time for the ship to go back to Miami.
Mom’s car was still there but apparently water had been high enough that the brakes had been wet, and the 2 year old car’s paint job had been sand blasted.
Miami was a mess.
This storm was a flood event, far more than a wind event. I’m pretty sure most of the losses will be uninsured. Not many people shell out for NFIP if they live in a 1,000 year flood plain.
>>>”Can you tell me which one of these was caused or made worse by a one part per 10,000 increase in atmospheric CO₂ concentration? 🤔
Don’t know! I can’t yet separate man-made versus natural occurring CO2 from the total.
Public high schools. ✖️
Just for laughs & chuckles I used the AI feature on my S24+ to answer the following question..
“”Can you tell me which one of these was caused or made worse by a one part per 10,000 increase in atmospheric CO₂ concentration?”
A one part per 10,000 increase in atmospheric CO₂ concentration would most likely cause or worsen a prolonged drought; as increased CO₂ contributes to a warming planet, leading to altered weather patterns and increased likelihood of droughts in many regions.
Yup, same spoon-fed BS we all get from the MSM.
That’s a very different path for one of those storms to take.

OK…
I hope the refusniks wrote their name and DOB on their arms as directed.
Stay pissed A-hole.
Too many vulnerable elderly are physically incapable of evacuation.
“It amazes and simultaneously pisses me off that vulnerable people don’t evacuate. Put rescuers in danger because you’re too stupid to do what is prudent.”
That happens sometimes.
But not right to use that with this massive storm.
It did things that normally don’t happen.
And some people can’t move
was, at one time, considered a Cat 5 (winds were at, or more than 200/mph), but then downgraded to Cat 4.. (BS)..)Andrew hit FLA at Cat 5.
If you live within 30 miles of the coastline of the US anywhere from Knotts Island, NC, to Port Isabel. TX, you need to be prepared for losing everything you own to a hurricane at least once in your lifetime.
No it doesn't. No one made them become a rescuer, and no one makes them put themselve3s in danger. They do it of their own volition. If people didn't habitually behave stupidly, about 90% of first responders would be out of work.
