Interesting and crazy fact on TWC just now.

Irma has been a Cat 5 for 33 Hours now.... the previous record was 18 Hours.

You should be able to click in the link in tapatalk and open the message in the twitter app. Works for me anyway.

Sen. Rubio on TWC right now sounds very distressed. I really am nervous and think this is going to be a second major blow in the season.

A Florida hit isn't cast in stone. While the model cluster is disconcerting, Irma is still a good way off. Just last year, wasn't there a similar agreement between models with Matthew which didn't pan out?

I assume they meant something like longest consecutive time with 180+ mph winds, because I think the satellite era record is 42 hours or so, and a 1932 Cuba storm holds the basin record (although given lack of observations that number is suspect).

Thinking about Florida and storm surge?
.....

Can you provide this map for Broward County?? Thanks in advance!

Sure.
Here is the same map zoomed in just a bit more and centered near the middle of the Broward County coast.

https://mappingsupport.com/p/gmap4.php? ... ricane.txt

This GIS overlay of surge data goes all along the Florida coast.
You can drag the map anywhere and wait a bit. The surge data should appear.
The state GIS server that is hosting this surge data is getting slammed with requests for data.
You can also try zooming in one step and then zooming back out one step. That seemed to help but maybe I just imagined it helped.

Anyone can make their own custom map link.
Do it like so:
1. Make the map look on your screen the way you want it to look when it opens. You might need to wait a bit before all the surge data appears on your screen.
2. Click Menu ==> Link to this map
3. Copy that link and paste it into a browser.

Tip: If you make map links and post on social media be aware that some platforms will trash the link. For Facebook I always use a link shortener. Reddit on the other hand requires the original link.

For more tips please click "Map Tips" in the upper left corner of the map.

Sorry for the delay, my monitor suddenly went off.

Are you on an app or a mobile device? I know sometimes viewing twitter messages doesn't always work from a mobile phone, especially if you have data restrictions set up.

No, i use a normal desktop.

Are they blocked for you? Use a modern browser (Chrome, IE 10+, or Firefox)?

Yes, i´m using the most recent FF, ublock and privacy badger are switched off. Hmm

I right click the twitter link and open in it a new tab.

Might be eyewall melding again. Maybe this is just how eyewall replacement is in top tier tropical cyclones experiencing good conditions and we haven't had good enough data on it until now.

I don't recall the models for Matthew ever being this tight in agreement as they have become with Irma (at least at this point in the track). Even without a Florida direct hit, the impacts will still be pretty great no matter what. And for local leaders, with Harvey's impacts dominating all media the last few weeks... I'm sure they are dealing with an enormous amount of stress from their constituents.

yeah just mentioned that.. likely deepening even more..

[Meteorcane]

Might be eyewall melding again. Maybe this is just how eyewall replacement is in top tier tropical cyclones experiencing good conditions and we haven't had good enough data on it until now.

All this fantastic temporal/spatial resolution remotely-sensed data we are currently receiving is going to be of great use in someone's master's thesis or phd dissertation on topics such as the one you mentioned above

[WeatherGuesser]

A correction to a tweet I posted earlier about using a special radar feature to view the double eyewall:

It's just as easy (same amount of steps) to post the text of the message so everyone can read it as it is to post a link to something only some can see.

Agree and Matt was never forecasted to landfall, just skirt like Irma may do...

If the outer eyewall is indeed fading away, this can be used as a great study in the behavior of very intense tropical cyclones. If I remember right, Haiyan also did this too.

This is the exact tweet that led NHC's Eric Blake to write that "It's like the movie groundhog day"

[Sciencerocks]

How much ACE has this Hurricane made? Should probably be within the top 5 for Atlantic hurricanes based on this value seeing that Ivan, Frances, Georges and Igor didn't become as strong as far east or hold such power.
