ATL: ETA - Post-Tropical - Discussion

[CourierPR]

Winds still dead calm across the peninsula except in bands

I live roughly three miles form the ocean and I can assure you it is not dead calm here.

[TheStormExpert]

The track keeps shifting south away from South Florida. Doubt anyone in South Florida will see hurricane winds, but TS winds are the most likely.

Here in coconut creek winds are 15 mph no big deal.

Same. Here in NE PBC winds are pretty gusty, especially in squall lines.

[boca]

We will get tropical force winds in gusts that’s it. I’m supposed to go into work at 3pm business as usual.

[jlauderdal]

With the potential jump in intensity, does it seem possible that any inland Broward areas (specifically the Coral Springs area) will see high wind gusts or possible Hurricane force gusts or warnings, or will this be predominantly to the south in Miami Dade County?

We probably won’t see a gust over 60 in north Broward

we have already been at 60 today

that could be a rather difficult drive, hopefully common sense prevails with your employer

[ObsessedMiami]

It's moving quickly enough that weather in Miami may be improving by sunrise Monday.

But you promised no school on Monday!

[HurricaneBelle]

Getting a bit concerned on the west coast of Florida here, the new NHC track implies a landfall along the Nature Coast later in the week. Intensity is the question.

It also depends on how far north Eta gets before the west turn but I do expect conditions to get worse than now but luckily I’m only 4 miles from work.

Sustained TS winds across SFL aren't forecast to start until the mid-afternoon. We're still in the feeder bands (if you can call this deluge a giant feeder band)

A friend of mine in Hollywood told me he's been getting absolutely pummeled all morning. In Sunrise, we haven't had heavy rain yet today (or since I woke up), but we did most of last night. And more is on the way.

[boca]

I’m concerned what it will be like at 9:30 when I leave work driving in 40 to 50 mph winds but hopefully it won’t be as bad.

[Laser30033003]

Looks to be starting to move to the NNW......

A lot of ponds in the Davie area are nearly at the point of overflowing. Especially around Central Campus.

[Cat5James]

Just had a 35-40 mph gust in NW Broward... should be an interesting day

[SFLcane]

I am beginning to doubt any portion of Broward will get into sustained TS winds most likely keys and extreme south dade. Feel free to correct me if I am wrong.

[ElectricStorm]

I'm changing my tune for this storm. I think Eta could in fact become stronger than Cat 1 after it passes Fl. Usually it's bad news when a storm makes a SW dive...

Same here.
