There were both. The flooding on the coast was unreal. I just bought my brand New 93 Mustang lx and someone took my parking spot at my complex...I was so mad I got soaked..I had to park away from my apartment when I got home 12:30am. Then in the middle of the Night-morning..we heard a loud crash...The lady who took my spot had her car crushed by a huge tree. I wasn't so mad about the spot anymore :wink: The wind the next day was blowing 30-40 mph..No phones..no power. It was a mess... :eek:

March 12-13, 1993.

Yep... that's it. The storm was like a hurricane and roared eastward across the Northern Gulf Coast while intensifying and then went up the East Coast. That shattered every snow record in the books here and then it was BITTERLY cold behind it. All-time records for March were shattered.

it was much worse for the southeast than the northeast though, I think NYC only got a foot and areas in the southeast had two to three feet of snow

I have a couple of questions:

1. Will an LLC establish itself further east than the models are
indicating?
2. Will the motion of 92L be slower than what the models are
indicating?

Also understand that a foot of snow in NYC isn't that unusual, while feet of snow down here is unheard of. :lol: They call it the once in a lifetime storm here.

The forecasters were really caught off guard for the most part. They NEVER EVER predicted what happened. They did predict there would be a significant snowfall, but never what happened. I have the statements from the NWS office on my computer and it went from bad to worse to worse throughout the evening. The warnings kept having to be upgraded and extended farther south.

http://www.srh.noaa.gov/bmx/aware/1993s ... oducts.pdf Need Acrobat Reader... that also includes the statements for the Florida Panhandle(back then there was only one NWS office, not 3 like now).

I remember the rain blowing so hard it was coming through the windows. We had never had problems. For hours I went from window to window mopping so it wouldn't ruin the floors.

Big Time Questions

#332 Postby Tampa Bay Hurricane » Mon Oct 03, 2005 9:27 pm

Someone please answer my questions :D
There's like 5 models bringing 92L right up to where I live
and with SHIPS I am concerned about a hurricane threat for
my area. :eek: :eek:

1. Will an LLC establish itself further east than the models are
indicating?
2. Will the motion of 92L be slower than what the models are
indicating?

I don't see this being much more than rain and wind unless it really moves slower than forecast.

Hopefully it won't because I'll get surge issues even with a Cat 1.
Thank you for answering though :wink:
Anyone else with information answering my questions please
contribute- I would greatly appreciate it :)

well here is my thinking... the slower it moves it will turn further east....the faster it moves, the farther west it gets before the front turns it

Read Air Force Met's comments among others.

He sees a hybrid if it gets to the GOM and tropical system if it stays east of Florida.

In order to be serious threat for Tampa the storm would have to do the following

1) move slower than forecasted
2) move through the FL straits
3) turn N then NE at the perfect time after emerging into the GOM


I don't see any of these happening.

Yes... there's a front coming by mid-week so if it hangs east of Florida too long it's gonna miss all together.
