Tropical Hurricane Dorian

[Rain Cold]

I have mostly stayed out of this thread because I don't really have anything new to add. But my gut tells me this will miss the US. Also, I don't trust the Icon with tropical systems.

The little last second nip of Cape Hatteras got me. But I still don't trust the long range ICON for tropical systems!

Well, that's the second time in seven years it's collapsed.

Stadium effect was beautiful.

I'm just imagining how stifling it felt. 91.5F, calm winds sitting in the middle of an absolute monster. The humidity had to be incredible.

I bet the dewpoint was then in the high 70s.

Legit Hurricane Warning for Canada. Maine and parts of New England will see more from Dorian than a lot did down here west of Raleigh.

After a violent hurricane struck the area, we end up with this beautiful sunset.

Just to get an idea of how things are looking in a certain area in Canada. Dreary, windy day, typical of a nor'easter, except they have a hurricane that's probably going to make landfall there before making a full transition to extratropical.

EDIT: WTF lol:



Some people...

 

[GeorgiaGirl]

Not officially updated "yet" I think but best track has him as extratropical.

Getting closer to goodbye and good riddance but unfortunately its going to be one to two more days of significant effects being felt.

 

[Brent]

Officially post tropical. Advisories continue til it clears Canada

What a storm

It amazes me how Dorian can maintain such intensity despite being so far north. Maybe it will run into a glacier soon and lose some steam.
