ATL: IRENE - Remnants - Discussion

[Raebie]

I just don't see how the forecast point can be so close to the SC coast and then veer east and hit the outer banks missing Cape Fear. What am I missing here?

You can click on it and get the pop-up w audio. Worked for me.

Angle of motion after landfall will be key to my own personal experience. If its heading NNE after a landfall on bogue banks/MHX and tracks up over the pungo river the eye will be at closest approach 40 miles to my east. If its a more northerly heading it could be as short as 20 miles to my east. This is barring no more west/east shifts and the track is correct.


I suspect there may be another nudge west at 5pm as the 18z TVCN came in 15 or so miles west again.

According to aircraft recon, #Irene's pressure is 963mb; surface winds measured at 161 mph north of Irene's center!

According to aircraft recon, #Irene's pressure is 963mb; surface winds measured at 161 mph north of Irene's center!

that has to be wrong, right? pressure is up 10mb and cat 5 winds??? maybe a gust?

[TropicalWXMA]

Gulf stream is also out.

For those interested, you can track NOAA49 (reg N49RF) on Flightaware by clicking here

The Bahaman's tend to cut-off the electricity pre-storm in order to protect infastructure and make it easier for the companies to rebuild whats down once the storm passes. It also lessens the risk of electrical fires so nothing much coming out of the Bahamas for the short-term isn't too much of a worry. The lower-lying communities would have been evac a long time before the Hurricane approached and so will be hunkered down in the shelters.

Eh? Last VDM says 950mb. That wind speed was a gust mentioned by Fox was it not - not from recon.

No, I had to go right to their ustream feed to hear the audio. May be a browser issue for some folks or something. http://www.ustream.tv/channel/hurricanetrack-com

[Blown Away]

Some good wind gusts in Hobe Sound 30+ mph.

Different Radar look: http://www.cbs12.com/sections/weather/interactive-radar

[FireRat]

Winds have picked up here in western broward county by about 10 mph. It's not raining at the present moment and winds are gusting I'd say around 25 mph....up from nearly calm hours ago.

[Aja]

According to Atlantic watch it is correct.

I'm here and can do graphics if needed.

#Irene seems to have completed an eyewall replacement cycle, we might see large upswing in intensity very soon.

[psyclone]

According to aircraft recon, #Irene's pressure is 963mb; surface winds measured at 161 mph north of Irene's center!

both of those figures sound erroneous. pressure has been around 950mb and winds are quite a bit lower than that
