Hurricanes cool off the ocean by turning all that heat energy into giant storms. In other words, a hurricane following immediately in the wake of another cannot be as strong as the first as the first already took a lot of energy out of the ocean. So for hurricanes to be pummeling the US continuously something would have to be pumping energy back into the atlantic ocean as fast as storms are taking it out.

It's gonna hit Apalachicola, an extremely low-lying town surrounded by swampland filled with gators. St. George is a barrier island off the coast that should protect it somewhat. Most of the houses on St. George are on stilts already.

St. George island is like my favorite place in all of FL and I hope it makes it

The Florida panhandle is Chud central so I assume they have certainly voted in competent emefomanagers and given them appropriate funding. So this should work out fine.

florence was a lot slower, had time to get big and scary and for everyone outside the usual hurricane zones to notice it. Most of my family lives in the direct path of this one and i only heard about it on sunday

Is it as big?

I mean, the winds are as fast, but is it the size of the eastern seaboard and going to hang around and rain on everything for a week?

SE Alabama here, my grandparents-in-law have been in a tizzy over this hurricane, did it get a shoutout on Fox or something, why are they worried over this one but not, like, Irma or Maria last year

the bitcoin of weed posted:

it's also gonna hit tallahassee and knock out 95% of the power grid, again, because they like their trees and canopy roads too much to trim them and I guess also like their money too much to pay to bury the power lines
tree tunnels are beautiful so I don't blame them

NHC update: Probably hitting as a Cat. 4.


"Data from a NOAA Hurricane Hunter aircraft indicate that maximum sustained winds have increased to near 125 mph (205 km/h) with higher gusts. Michael is now a strong category 3 hurricane on the Saffir-Simpson Hurricane Wind Scale. Some further strengthening is expected overnight and on Wednesday, and Michael is forecast to become a category 4 hurricane before it makes landfall in the Florida Panhandle or the Florida Big Bend area. Weakening is expected after landfall as Michael moves across the southeastern United States."

the name of a hurricane should change with intensity/projected impact

like "tropical storm whirlypoo :angel:"

then it gets progressively meaner sounding

so right about now it should be "hurricane zeus and poseidon simultaneously going elbow deep in your rear end with only your blood as lube"

it's a mouthful but it might help those who are on the fence about evacuating
