Tropical Hurricane Zeta

[Downeastnc]

This thing is going to need a decent N wobble soon to be on track, though the center is making it kinda tricky to follow......but if it doesnt this could skirt the Miss delta and give MS/AL a better hit.....

This would be impressive. Even at 75% this would be impressive for a gulf landfalling hurricane this far NEView attachment 51242

Meh the HRRR had me getting 80-100 mph gust in Isaias we peaked at 55, these maps are dead to me.....

Next will be school closings, isn’t some of the worst supposed to be around start of schools in the morning?

Coweta Ga says it’s waiting to make the call at 5am.

Stinky gonna lie but starting to look like a MH structure wise.

Compare the two.

I already told my wife she was staying home tomorrow, she normally leaves the house around 6:20am. Safety first.

Many school systems in the metro Atlanta area are still doing at least partial virtual learning, so buses shouldn’t be as much of an issue. I’m sure administrators didn’t expect to have to actually close school completely this year for any reason thanks to having virtual learning options. Until Zeta comes through and knocks out everyone’s power to close virtual school, too. Very on brand for 2020.

I live in Newnan and power goes out it will render virtual school useless.

Tables have flipped, 12z HMON actually has landfall as a major hurricane which is stronger than the 12z HWRF.

TWC says the storm has reached peak intensity. What are y’all’s thoughts?

Agreed...def. seeing more (easterly movement) at this point as well.

The short term east movement can have implications on weather further east in Carolinas.

Im gonna say no. Both 12z HWRF and HMON show strengthening until landfall and improving structure supports that. But who knows, they can fall apart so fast in this area.

Yeah. I guess the only thing that could weaken it given the solid structure would be cooler water, but sea surface temperatures there should still be high enough to at least help it hold its strength

 

[Arcc]

Both 12z WRF-ARW runs on TT show a substantial area of 35-50knt surface wind cutting between Montgomery and BHM.

Cooler waters won't matter much giving that its moving fast.

 

[Arcc]

Just keeps looking better. I thought it may strengthen, I didn’t think it would look this good structure wise.

Also as it goes north and east it will be increasingly difficult to go "back" NW as the westerlies are no joke this time of year....a 100 mile track shift east up here would be pretty significant especially for more of GA and the Carolinas.
