james1976 Posted September 5, 2017 Report Share Posted September 5, 2017 Might not mean anything, but last week I heard several flocks of geese which I found odd. Don't they usually fly south later this month or Oct? Thought it was peculiar.Everything seems early this year. I heard locust earlier than usual and leaves were turning and changing sooner than normal...although may have been due to the dry weather.

Niko Posted September 5, 2017 Report Share Posted September 5, 2017 I'm sure it will change a hundred times but sounds like via that post it was a map for posterity Edit: found it! Clocking Niko's place ofc Seriously, you've got a bad feeling bout Irma, but I've got a bad feeling that this Summer's pattern of "just missing" will continue into next winter. Remember, '76-77 was cold but dry for SMI but Lk Erie froze over early and had 3 ft of snow on top of the ice when the bliz hit Buffalo. That could only have come from synoptic not LES so that tells me the mean track was just to my south as I've been talking about. gfs_mslp_wind_us_37.pngMan, what a great position!

Tom Posted September 5, 2017 Author Report Share Posted September 5, 2017 That was a weird looking sky for a while late this morning. Had the smoke and a thin layer of clouds in the mid layers so you could see the red colored sun through the clouds and the air was a weird grayish to yellowish color at times. Almost reminded me of how things looked weird right before totality during the eclipse. I got out my video camera and used the zoom on it and you could see a couple of big sun spots. Couldn't smell any smoke though. The clouds cleared and now the sun is just a tint of orangish red with the smoke still up in the atmosphereThis is about as active as I've seen the sun in many years...tbh, I'm really surprised how many sunspots there are on the sun today... http://www.spaceweather.com/images2017/05sep17/hmi200.gif Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Minny_Weather Posted September 5, 2017 Report Share Posted September 5, 2017 CFSv2 weeklies seeing a large area of below normal temps around that time period of the 20th...during this period, we should start to see an uptick in moisture as the new CPH pattern begins to take shape in the northern latitudes by the end of this Week 3 period.I was quietly looking at that time period yesterday too, as the Euro weeklies also picked up on it. Awesome cold air coming from Alaska which could bring many areas in the Northern Plains/MN/WI (or even further South?) their first freeze in the Sept 20-25 timeframe. Also maybe measurable snow to the Plains areas in Canada to end the month (AB, SK, MN). I am usually very skeptical to Euro weeklies, but they have done shockingly well the past few weeks. If it's right, we may see an uptick in severe weather here in Nebraska to start off October too. There normally is one last severe weather push here in October. 1 Quote Formerly *ahem*: LNK_Weather, TOL_Weather, FAR_Weather, MSP_Weather, IMoveALot_Weather.

Niko Posted September 5, 2017 Report Share Posted September 5, 2017 NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL AL1120171100 AM AST Tue Sep 05 2017Irma is an extremely impressive hurricane in both infrared andvisible satellite images. Experimental GOES-16 one-minute visiblesatellite pictures show a distinct 25-30 n mi wide eye with severalmesovortices rotating within with eye. The aircraft have notsampled the northeastern eyewall where the strongest winds weremeasured shortly before 1200 UTC this morning, but the Air Forceplane will be entering the eye in that quadrant momentarily. A peakSFMR wind of 154 kt was reported, with a few others of 149-150 kt.Based on these data the initial intensity is set at 155 kt for thisadvisory. This makes Irma the strongest hurricane in the Atlanticbasin outside of the Caribbean Sea and Gulf of Mexico in the NHCrecords. 1 Quote Snowfall for Winter 2023 -24 for Metro Detroit Area Oct 2023: 0.2" AN Nov 2023: 2.2" AN Dec 2023: 0.5" BN Insane!

Models had been overdoing troughs like crazy and there was no reason to think it could get pushed out at all. There were 2 landfalling majors in 1915 (before "global warming") but people don't look at truths like that. And, Irma's potential impacts have been compared with the 1926 and 1928 Cat-4 canes that hit the SE region of FL. Amazing that area got slammed twice in 3 yrs. What if that happened with today's pop?? If this storms takes a track west of FL near the coastline it'll be what Jaster mentioned as a worst case scenario. There goes my brothers vaca plans near St Petersburg. They leave on Thursday. Actually, I meant it would be the better scenario if the core winds stayed just off-shore and it made LF in that sparsely populated swampy region north of Clearwater (the bend region). As it is, both coasts need to keep a wary eye out with models flipping back and forth on which side it rides up.

jaster220 Posted September 5, 2017 Report Share Posted September 5, 2017 I don't know how accurate some of these maps are, but this is should scare every single person right now. The lowest pressure ever recorded was 870 mb. This shatters that. I know this is one model, but my god, this thing could pack winds that no one has ever seen in history if it were to pan out. I hope everyone takes action, Florida is the flattest state out there, nothing to stop these monstrous winds from ripping houses, buildings, you name it. I hope this graphic is inaccurate for the sake of our citizens down there. Wow. irma.png In the case of the HMON, not at all due to being "uncoupled from the ocean" in the Atlantic basin. Thus, it gives out some ridiculous strengthening via a false feedback component. Nonetheless, the more accurate models are scary enough without the runaway train effects of a couple models.

jaster220 Posted September 5, 2017 Report Share Posted September 5, 2017 I saw that Andrew only got down to 922 mb, but I think it was when he was much closer to FL. Irma just getting into the hot-tub waters with no lack of fuel and nearly ideal atmospheric conditions. Looks like JB's and Tom's concerns will come to fruition. Sadly, Irma could be the super-cane long feared by those insisting global warming would lead to such storms. Let the records pile-up. Irma's 1st: "Atlantic basin - farthest east CAT-5 cane in recorded history" And her 2nd as Niko posted: NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL AL1120171100 AM AST Tue Sep 05 2017 Irma is an extremely impressive hurricane in both infrared andvisible satellite images. Experimental GOES-16 one-minute visiblesatellite pictures show a distinct 25-30 n mi wide eye with severalmesovortices rotating within with eye. The aircraft have notsampled the northeastern eyewall where the strongest winds weremeasured shortly before 1200 UTC this morning, but the Air Forceplane will be entering the eye in that quadrant momentarily. A peakSFMR wind of 154 kt was reported, with a few others of 149-150 kt.Based on these data the initial intensity is set at 155 kt for thisadvisory. This makes Irma the strongest hurricane in the Atlanticbasin outside of the Caribbean Sea and Gulf of Mexico in the NHCrecords. 1 Quote Winter 2023-24 Snow Total = 53.1" (90% Normal Season) Largest Storm: 12" (1/12-13) Oct: 0.1 Nov: 2.9 Dec: 7.5 Jan: 31.7 Feb: 6.0 Mar: 4.3 Apr: 0.1 Avg = 59.2" (Harrison): 2023-24 = 53.1" Avg = 45.0" (KDTW): 2022-23 = 33.5" 2021-22 = 35.6" Avg = 49.7" (KRMY): 2020-21 = 36.2" 2019-20 = 48.0" 2018-19 = 56.1" 2017-18 = 68.3" 2016-17 = 52" 2015-16 = 57.4" 2014-15 = 55.3" 2013-14 = 100.6" (coldest & snowiest in the modern record!) 2012-13 = 47.2" 2011-12 = 43.7" Legit Blizzards (high winds and dbl digit snows): Feb 2011, Dec 2009, Jan 2005, Dec 2000, Jan 1999, Mar 1998, Nov 1989, Jan 1982, Jan 1978, Jan 1977, Apr 1975, Mar 1973, Jan 1967, Feb 1965, Jan 1918 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jaster220 Posted September 5, 2017 Report Share Posted September 5, 2017 Didnt Katrina hit sustained 200mph at one point?

St Paul Storm Posted September 5, 2017 Report Share Posted September 5, 2017 It's interesting how the NHC has this weakening to a cat 4 as it enters even warmer waters. This thing is a complete catastrophic event in the making. What a friggin beast of a buzzsaw. Scheduled to attend a conference in Miami in November. The city might not even be there if this thing stays on course. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stormgeek Posted September 5, 2017 Report Share Posted September 5, 2017 I am quite honestly at a loss of words. An already category 5, historic hurricane, is making its way through what seems to be bath water on a collision course with terrifying consequences. It is incredible to watch grow, but man have mercy on the souls in its path. Supposed to be attending a wedding in St. Pete in October. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
