Exactly right. People are thinking 30 or 40 mph winds. I'm a little east in Pensacola, but I gotta say, I'm a little nervous, such a big blow up on the east side,


It's well to the east of the forecast track too it seems.

My thoughts and prayers are with everyone on the Northern Gulf Coast this evening.


Likewise praying for the good people of gulf coast!!!

This situation is very concerning as nate is currently at the intensity was forecasted for landfall and appears to be entering RI and this east moving near loop... worrisome especially for Mobile- Pensacola area. But I know people up there are smart about these things & prepared - I lived in area for 5 years- just hoping people get the info quickly as this is fast moving!

This is why evacuations on the MS gulf coast should've already been ordered... it is going to be a mess in the morning. Luckily I live a little farther inland and don't have to deal with surge

Isn't the 65 kt estimate a little bit conservative?? :eek:

Personally, that is some of the coldest convection I have ever seen in the GOM/ Atl basin

Well it looks like family will definitely be having to evac in the morning...if this makes a run at cat 2 tomorrow morning they will be having to pull the mower and travel trailer to high ground and try to get out of there. right now NHC seems a little east of the guidance, which is seeming to be back over Hancock county...that will make a difference for my fam. current track is right over Pascagoula though I am getting a bit concerned.

At this forward speed it does not really matter if it goes over the loop current or not..

He has 24-30 hours over waters that are plenty warm. With the fast speed of the storm the depth of the warm waters aren’t as crucial but rather the upper level environment. Should remain favorable up until landfall so this could strengthen all the way, maybe cat 3-4 if trends continue.

Anyone on the east side of the track should be particularly worried because of how fast it's moving. The winds will be much stronger and water could pile up very quickly.

A Cat 3 LF is looking like a strong possibility and it may be intensifying up till LF, so that plus the fast forward motion will accelerate the wind threat.

I remain concerned that the western Atlantic ridge may be overdone in the models... and the track could shift further east, in line with observations over the last day or so.

An eastward shift in the forecast track would not surprise me in the next 12 hours (yes, I know the forecast has shifted slightly west this evening).

MY question is what would happen if for some reason with this possibly going through RI right now, could he slow down his forward speed and possibly move a little more to the West?
. Uhhh.... no, definitely not!! 140 mph is many times more destructive than 115- it's an exponential increase. Also the faster it moves the further inland damaging winds are spread.


Then you haven't lived through some of the majors. I much rather have a storm that is only going to be hitting one spot for a very short amount of time than constantly for many hours. Look at Harvey and Irma. Irma was moving at a very slow 10 to 15 mph and caused some damage but Harvey didn't move and caused much more damage.

Well 00z models need to be thrown out for the ones that are initialized wrong...

would the weaker initializations portend that their tracks are probably a bit too far west(like a stronger stystem might follow the eastern side of the cone more?

Holy cow. Earlier today this thing didn't even have a core! I was wondering what was going to happen with the nuts heat content in the Caribbean, and I guess I have my answer. I haven't seen explosive core convection like that in the Atlantic since Wilma.

The transformation from about six hours ago to what it is right now is among the most impressive I've seen in my years of tracking tropical cyclones

If he slows down to let's say 15 mph would the front catch him and turn him he before landfall thanks
