>LATEST ON FLORENCE AS OF 11:00PM AST SEPTEMBER 6TH: >CURRENT CATEGORY: VERY STRONG TROPICAL STORM, NEAR CATEGORY 1 HURRICANE >Location: 25.1°N 49.8°W >Moving: WNW at 7 mph >Min pressure: 993 mb >Max sustained: 70 mph >Forecast to pass south of Bermuda, Turning towards the US East Coast. Could make landfall on the East Coast at Cat 3/4+ Strength
Cat 3/4, potentially even cat 5 are not outside the realm of possibilities. Interests from South Carolina all the way up to NE need to closely monitor this system in the coming days
>GFS It's been utter shit these past couple years. Especially regarding Florence's track thus far. Initially, GFS had it spinning away all the way since it was at the Cabo Verde islands. Euro Model and UK are far more reliable
Even better is that it will likely make landfall at Cat 3/4 strength, with large Wind Swaths

that's TABD, I would generally ignore that model though, it's been pretty retarded thus far. Pic related is CMC showing Florence Direct Landfall in NC. Even better is that it's lingering about like Harvey did in Houston
can a weatherfag tell me what should we be looking for in the reports, are there like keywords/phrases they use that would let us know that they're legit worried about a hurricane will be a bad one?

Latest UK model Run. Most accurate one during Irma, pretty damn accurate so far Looks like y'all might get your wish if the UK model verifies
Also, to answer how I know all this, I've studied Hurricanes for years now, looking to get a degree in Atmospheric Science at the moment.

Generally, you wanna look for whenever they use terms like "impacts", "landfall potential", "intensification" and "damage". Right now there a great deal of uncertainty regarding Florence
Nolan Morgan
Floridians and PRanons should closely monitor 92L, which will likely become Helene
Summary of the past day: >Florence weakened all the way from Cat 3 at the start of the day to a Strong Tropical Storm. >However, reintensification is anticipated once Florence gets out of unfriendly territory and into warmer waters, and low wind shear. >Some speculation even occurred that the storm might dissipate, but no, that will not occur. >She's a gamer. The core is there. So you can't count the system out just because it is devoid of convection. If it survives it will reintensify >A series of strong High Pressure systems to the north will continue to push Florence further south. Only question is how fast will the High Pressure move away? If it lingers, we have a big happening on our hands. If not, it'll likely curve out and be a fish storm.
Stop spamming DT, he's a fucking clown. Doesn't know shit. WXRisk should be disregarded always.
That said, 00z GFS running, storm is out to sea. Actually spins around the middle of the Atlantic and continues to deepen rapidly. Down to 910mb at 240 hr

Brother is already thinking about sharting next tuesday if Va bch is in direct path!
