Really cool radar picture. It really shows up-close the monster that is moving toward Pensacola/Mobile areas.

I have always found GR to have similar info representations as Barons which I used chasing tornados in May this year.

Needless to say we were chased by meso's but we knew where they were. The GPS with the system was awesome.

I wish I was in the path of Dennis now, could have made it too!

Next one, next one!

The NWF radar now seems much more in line with the NHC estimates, so that's what I'll be switching to.

12:00 pm Central time update

Tracking the Pensacola radar for the past 60 minutes, Dennis is on a heading to come ashore near Pensacola Beach, FL.

Sad, but also helpful...they may not be perfect, but I know exactly where my brother's house is and am seeing the line move steadily east of it. Still far too close and will be very bad, but better.

The center of the eye is now over Escambia County's waters.

Downtown Pensacola is just barely escaping the heaviest rains of the (stronger) western eyewall.

Folks, it simply doesn't get any more real-time than that!! Absolutely great work MTM. I sure hope you're gonna be around for the rest of the season - and for many to come. But I'd imagine 24/7 might get a little old... :D
