Well there is one more component that can make this even worse. If....we are faced with this and it comes in but drops further south inland (at or below the Florida line and comes up the coast).....Charley! Unsuspecting and not prepared for inland winds!

Ain't that the truth! At least this is facinating although sad!

FWIW 18z HMON has landfall between 125-130knts and 934mb, HRWF is about the same of pressure but between 115-120knts.

Man, that second link that Phil has, there's no words outside of incredible.

The night shots of Michael sure as heck look more like a typhoon then a hurricane in the GOM.

So I hear all the time that the stronger the hurricane, the more it wants / does get pulled poleward!? Wouldn’t that argue for a more northerly track?

Its situationally dependent. Are you asking about maybe 50 miles or 200?

The thought is crossing my mind that possibly results from a segment of tools were ignored because they didn't fit previous scenarios that played out in a different way. So the message was ignored? We will know tomorrow....

Surprised the wind didn’t go up, but the pressure is down to 953.

I seriously hope that people in the panhandle have evaucated.

If this thing keeps doing what it’s doing I wouldn’t be surprised to wake up w a cat 4 in the morning

Let’s go with 50. That would catch a lot of people off guard! I expect more trees down around here, than we had with Florence

This can’t be right!???? B Rad said nothing to worry about!
