Lackmaster posted:so, all things considered it seems like Idalia wasn’t that bad? I would go so far as to say that given how horrible it could have been, this was approaching the very best case scenario possible. The water in the gulf would have easily supported Idalia at a full cat 5. It hit during an EWRC (eyewall replacement cycle) which temporarily downgrades the cyclone a bit while it basically builds into a more powerful hurricane, and it moved pretty quickly, which didn't give it very long to truly scale up. The trajectory was basically perfect, hitting where very few people live. the overall potential of Idalia was basically off the charts, and in the worst case I am convinced it could have been one of, if not THE the worst natural disaster in USA history. We dodged a bullet big time, but unfortunately you really need to know how cyclones work to really grock the full implications of what happens, so very few people will get that.

GFS do your thing. Minneapolis all time high for September is 104F. Definitely not hitting 106F.

I'm sure for a place like TWC it is about clicks, but the dire warnings from the NWC were about trying to save lives, and they most likely did. Nobody likes taking precautions for anything, but NWC isn't trying to make people comfortable; it's trying to prevent people from dying in their single-wide when 135mph winds roll it into a river or storm surge sweeps them away while they're recording tiktoks in the street during landfall or whatever. "A major storm is coming to an area that has not seen one before; Get Out" is good advice, if you have the money to follow it.

while the alternate timeline where Idalia Tokyo Drifts around to hit Florida again from the east would be grimly amusing, it is good that it now looks like that will not be happening
