^ I would like to add that hurricane evacuees all crammed together in New Orleans like Katrina would be very deadly with the delta variant out there. We could end up like India .

This isn't a major hurricane so I think they will be ok.
Conditions are ripe for this to become a hurricane. I believe major is on the table.
I was in the water last weekend and it was still kind of coolish

Yea around 84-86 near PCB. Not bath water yet, I like when its around 90.
Yeah and I think it was even cooler on the Carolina coast... Definitely not what Id would consider warm

Isn't it a bit unusual to have a major landfalling hurricane this early in the season?

Wrong thread
I would like to add that if someone doesn't want to face another forum exodus they may want to calm down the rhetoric. @BirdManDoomW I'm looking right at you

Carolina coast gets to 84 . I know Virginia key down by Miami gets to 90, and the shallow shelf water in the gulf .
This has nothing to do with how tropical systems tho. They stir up in much deeper waters offshore than what we swim in. There’s a map that will tell you what can be supported (cat 3 major) can be done even stronger actually where this is headed in the short to mid ranges.
I realize that I was just giving my experiences playing in the sand last weekend. But I do know that temperatures need to be 83 to 84 degrees in the water for most hurricanes to blow up. That said, a massive hurricane would not be a surprise because of enough upwelling would occur, but it is still unlikely.
Can this become a major Hurricane .. sure.. but there’s an equal and even maybe more likely chance this is nothing and out to sea … next
Not according to NHC. Caribbean people first then Florida. NHC struggles more with strength than track. There’s a lot of land in the way maybe so doesn’t matter if it’s a major or not until it re-emerges on which side of Florida no one knows but I believe in the Gulf.
