ATL: DELTA - Post-Tropical - Discussion

Extrap 949.0mb... Delta's not done yet

That's the lowest value from the NOAA plane yet.

[eastcoastFL]

Has Raildawg checked in and said where he’ll be?

Been watching this forum like a hawk lol. It is my go-to source for information on these hurricanes!

Am sitting about 4 hours away from the strike zone here in Houston. Ready to roll lol.

Thanks for checking!!

Chuck

Great to hear that! Careful out there chuck. Looking forward to your updates

Yup. Still steaming ahead. IR playing tricks on some folks again

[eastcoastFL]

Winds still increasing at the buoy. Gusting over 80kts now. This buoy I believe is a little north of delta

[eastcoastFL]

111 kt FL, 96 kt SFMR in NW quad. Pressure 949 mb.

Good luck, Chuck! Stay safe and I look forward to the updates.

https://www.ndbc.noaa.gov/plot_wind_pres.php?station=42002&uom=E&time_diff=-4&time_label=EDT

Not sure how far that buoy is from the eye but the pressure is down to about 965mb

It’s pretty close.

Buoy is at 26.06N -93.65 W

Delta 11 pm location

25.7°N 93.6°W

So just slightly north. Pressure is 961 now at the buoy so dropping fast

Yeah, looks like the buoy is down to 960... falling fast. Will be interesting to see what it bottoms out at

Yah real fast. I’ll be keeping an eye on it.

Should take a pretty dead-on hit, too.

AF plane just took off and is on the way

Looking at the recon image it appears to be due north so should run right over it in the coming hours

Pressure Tendency (PTDY): -0.89 in ( Falling Rapidly )

[ElectricStorm]

8mb drop between passes

[Craters]

Oh yeah it will be dangerous no matter what category it is. So sad to see the same area get 2 direct, strong, hits within 2 months of each other...

It’s nuts. I went through it with frances and Jeanne in 2004 and I just could not believe it was happening again. It wasn’t the danger that made me so angry or worried it was the thought of losing power again! We lost it for 8 days with frances and 20 days with Jeanne. I hope things have advanced since then and our friends in LA don’t have to deal with that.

That's crazy. I was 3 in 2004 so obviously I wasn't tracking back then lol

Late starter, huh, Weather Dude?

Oh yeah... Just a tad behind

On satellite it appears to be making yet another attempt to close off that eye on the southeast. This shot looks like it might succeed since the pressure appears to still be falling. And this is amazing to watch that buoy - so relatively rare to get a direct crossover. Should bottom out rapidly now.

It is pretty cool to see the observations from the buoy. Most of those buoys out there aren't even active.

Looks like the NOAA mission is done
