That roar. Holy cow.

Hurricane warnings now between Palm Beach and Cape Canaveral.

Stadium effect at sunset is gorgeous but the location is... super far from ideal

Dorian is a few days away from South Carolina, but the governor has ordered mandatory evacuations along the coast.

Oh yikes! She’s saying her sister is one of the cast members. I hope this isn’t true!

From the latest NHC advisory on #Dorian: “The hurricane will move dangerously close to the Florida east coast late Monday through Tuesday night.”

One thing to note. The hurricane models which are initializing this storm at the correct low pressure (915mb) is taking it further west than global which are improperly initializing the system well above actual readings.

I wonder why that is that they are improperly initializing it.

Global models are much lower resolution than hurricane models.

Does the track of Dorian remind you of Hurricane Floyd from 20 years ago?

 

[TornadoFan]

Still moving westwards. Haven't seen much of a wobble.

Mandatory evacuation for the Georgia coast tomorrow with I-16 being contraflow.

Not good.

It’s only moving 5 mph and still 140 miles away from the coast. Plenty of time to shift and it will. If it speeds up, could be really bad for Florida. If your county touches the Atlantic Ocean, wouldn’t be a bad idea to go over a county over and get a hotel or evacuate.

The doorway north is now open...

 

[TornadoFan]

So now we wait...

It'll probably wobble around for another 12-18 hours and get uncomfortably close to Florida with impacts, but I can see this pulling a 2016 Matthew and not officially making landfall until North Carolina (if it does).
