Larry Posted September 1, 2019 Share Posted September 1, 2019 The fact that it's moving so slow probably ain't making a lot of friewnds, either.

Springfield Posted September 1, 2019 Share Posted September 1, 2019 (edited) Seems like it’s strengthening which is remarkable. Also, it’s strange that a storm of this size hasn’t had eyewall reconstruction. I think the belief is that if the eyewall doesn’t rebuild then the storm remains more compact but if it does then the storm will expand. Most expect an eyewall reconstruction though.

Springfield Posted September 1, 2019 Share Posted September 1, 2019 (edited) Added: it’s truly amazing that 3-5 days ago the models showed a Cat 3 storm at the worst.

JSSkinz Posted September 1, 2019 Share Posted September 1, 2019 Needing that storm to take a hard right turn is what worries me, if they are off just a bit and that thing decides to run across the state it will hit some highly populated areas through Orlando and then Tampa (that's me). It never fails, every year we get the first bad hurricane right at the start of the NFL season. 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Larry Posted September 1, 2019 Share Posted September 1, 2019 (edited) So basically, a Cat 5 hurricane (currently 185 MPH sustained) is going to spend the next 48 hours over Grand Bahama. Edited September 1, 2019 by Larry Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

China Posted September 2, 2019 Share Posted September 2, 2019 So do we need another Shepherd Smith report to tell us that if it hits that you and everyone you know will be dead? You can't survive it. It's not possible. And your kids will die too. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Malapropismic Depository Posted September 2, 2019 Share Posted September 2, 2019 (edited) Did Bahamas really suffer a direct hit from that Cat 5, at 185 mph ? I'm no architectural engineer, but if that's the case, how do they even exist anymore ? EDIT : I just read they did not even suffer a single fatality, that they know of. No pun intended, but I'm seriously blown away by that. Add to that, the gusts were 220 mph Edited September 2, 2019 by Malapropismic Depository Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

88Comrade2000 Posted September 3, 2019 Share Posted September 3, 2019 (edited) Current track has storm 70 to 80 miles offshore; so not even the winds will be effecting us here in Brevard Co. Just some rain, I guess. Edited September 3, 2019 by Rdskns2000 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
