The organization compared to just earlier this afternoon is impressive. Hoping it's not an indicator of what's to come.

 

[Clancy]

Helene is slated to impact FL while moving at a brisk pace. While it will hopefully mean areas receive less prolonged impacts, 1) this is a very large storm, and 2) it will ultimately be giving some folks less time to prepare.

The 18z Hurricane Models are back to predicting a Cat 4/5 hurricane coming into the Big Bend.

Boy, if we could rely on the 3km NAM, we would be having record breaking category 5 hurricanes each year. LOL!

 

[JPWX]

Helene should be very near or at hurricane intensity by 10pm tonight. If that's the case, then you can expect that 115mph max intensity to be increased drastically.

Why? Just your everyday 884 mbar low off the gulf coast. Pretty common if you ask me.

Spaghetti plots sticking to the western track. This would be very bad for Tallahassee and then Atlanta and the surrounding suburbs

Is there a actual legitimate shot at this system making a significant bump to a more Westward track through the east side of Alabama?

No idea… we just have to wait and see

It will depend on how it interacts with the Yucatan Peninsula.
