Really nice technical discussion. The words “climatological record” was mentioned a couple of times.
Really interesting to see how this all plays out. Outside across my local in coastal Palm Beach county it is very quiet with little wind and just a few puffy cumulus moving slowly west under relatively cool conditions, crickets chirping. Hard to believe in less than 48 hours, the weather will be so much different with high wind gusts and an approaching squall line. Will call it “the calm before the storm.”
