i sure hope we get the 3-6 inches here in wilmington. we're over 9 inches in the hole for the year. this one storm could give us as much rain as we have seen all year.

They have a path that hits around Tampa and follows I4 to Daytona.


I wish!

appears to be picking up steam a bit and heading NE again

even though it may not matter much since precip shield is out ahead of the center by about 100 miles to the east and 50 miles north of the center

http://radar.weather.gov/ridge/radar.ph ... 1&loop=yes

looks like it is starting to strengthen again as it re-accelerates back to the NE ( guess it took a nap for a couple hours) and the total relative shear lessens again

WATCH THIS storm i think barry has another surprise overnite

p.s rain "cup" now over 2.2 inches in west boca

and barry now appears to be due west of KEY BISCANE and DUE south of tallahassee next stop SARASOTA

jet is moving NNE but trough is sliding EAST at same time thus pushing it east as it moves NE/NNE giving a net motion about 50 degrees

The NOAA weather radio might be a good thing to sleep with tonight. I think tornadoes have the most damage potential (even though I can't see them being any more than an EF1), as the winds and rain shouldn't do too much damage.

When looking at the satelite images, for me, I am having a hard time figuring out which "blob" I am supposed to look at. They all look pretty nasty.

You guys down there in central/southern FL stay safe tonight. I know these tropical storms at night can be scary especially with the tornados and severe weather.

They are always called Hurricane Local Statements in NWS terms, whether it is a hurricane, a tropical storm, a tropical depression, a subtropical storm or a non-tropical system with tropical potential.
