Tropical Tropical Storm Cristobal

[Bham 99]

Why is TWC not doing live shots and only reporting over the phone? Just curious

Yeah I'm watching it right now and they're doing exactly what you said. Hmmmm...

I was watching it yesterday morning and I remember seeing Reynolds Wolf live from Louisiana. Weird.

Edit: Paul Goodloe is live now.

So key takeaways seems to be that Cristobal is having to fight off dry air and has an exposed COC right now. It is noteworthy that he's starting to get some better banding on his western side now as well. But right now the visible satellite loops don't look that different from a subtropical system. Also interesting that the pressure came up slightly in the last update.

 

[Philstorm91]

Also, the center now looks like a donut hole on satellite presentation. For those in the path of the storm, please keep in mind that this system is expansive. So while it may only be a tropical storm, the effects are far reaching with rains and gusty winds, especially to the eastern side of its track.

Yep likely a much larger wind field than a typical TS.

Its certainly having some dry air issues though, I don't know if it's going to be able to work that out before LF

I would definitely call it subtropical at this point.

 

[Philstorm91]

4 pm update shows the storm's strength and heading is essentially unchanged.

 

[GeorgiaGirl]

That eastern band is nasty. There are a couple tornado warnings in Florida.

 

[GaWx]

That eastern band is nasty. There are a couple tornado warnings in Florida.

Yep, Ocala south of @pcbjr had one. And Hogtown, itself, got raked pretty good with 40 mph winds and heavy rain.

 

[Brent]

That eastern band is nasty. There are a couple tornado warnings in Florida.

I think I've seen more tornado pictures today than the last few weeks....
