[QUOTE="BOOGIE MAN, post: 16003818, member: 26082"] SHOUT OUT to Levi (owner and admin of tropicatidbits), one of the TropCyclone Wizards at FSU. He's currently operating on cat naps every few hours and it looks like he'll continue doing so until at the very least the weekend. The rain->flooding->landslides will cause tons of damage inland, and the storm surge will reek havoc on the coast; the NHC is forecasting up to 13feet of storm surge in some locations, and if it is timed correctly with the tides, very bad news. NOAA's wavewatch3 model is showing significant wave heights of 15m associated with the eyewall of the storm. That means that there is potential for 100foot+ waves.... Eyewall replacement cycles are becoming more regular, the eye has decreased in size, outflow is becoming better defined, the storm is slowing down, entering a weaker shear area, higher sea surface temps, and better outflow environment... All of these things are bad news. From NHC 5pm EDT advisory At 500 PM AST (2100 UTC), the center of the eye of Hurricane Florence was located by satellite near latitude 27.5 North, longitude 67.1 West. Florence is moving toward the west-northwest near 17 mph (28 km/h). A motion toward the west-northwest and northwest is expected through early Thursday. Florence is expected to slow down considerably by late Thursday into Friday. On the forecast track, the center of Florence will move over the southwestern Atlantic Ocean between Bermuda and the Bahamas through Wednesday, and approach the coast of North Carolina or South Carolina in the hurricane warning area on Thursday and Friday. Maximum sustained winds have increased to near 140 mph (220 km/h) with higher gusts. Florence is a category 4 hurricane on the Saffir-Simpson Hurricane Wind Scale. Further strengthening is forecast tonight and Wednesday. While some weakening is expected on Thursday, Florence is forecast to be an extremely dangerous major hurricane through landfall. Hurricane-force winds extend outward up to 60 miles (95 km) from the center and tropical-storm-force winds extend outward up to 175 miles (280 km). FORECAST POSITIONS AND MAX WINDS INIT 11/2100Z 27.5N 67.1W 120 KT 140 MPH 12H 12/0600Z 28.7N 69.3W 130 KT 150 MPH 24H 12/1800Z 30.4N 72.1W 135 KT 155 MPH 36H 13/0600Z 32.1N 74.5W 130 KT 150 MPH 48H 13/1800Z 33.4N 76.2W 120 KT 140 MPH 72H 14/1800Z 34.5N 77.7W 100 KT 115 MPH...NEAR THE COAST 96H 15/1800Z 35.0N 78.8W 40 KT 45 MPH...INLAND 120H 16/1800Z 35.7N 81.7W 25 KT 30 MPH...INLAND DO NOT GAMBLE WITH MOTHER NATURE. Button up and leave, as soon as possible. If you've been looking for that excuse to go to Vegas, now is the time. [/QUOTE]
