2020 Atlantic Hurricane Season Running Thread

Not knowing Florida geography that well, guessing Trump saw the map in question and figured a trip there was OK?

 

Well, it is shaped like a drooping penis ...

 

This thing is sort of looking like Matthew and Florence. It's going to dump a crap ton of rain on Eastern Carolina right into the Cape Fear, Northeast Cape Fear, Neuse, and Tar river basins

 

Trump is in the Tampa area
We aren’t supposed to have any problems

 

Ten concerns me a lot. When you start ramping up from Cape Verde, it's never a good thing because that's a whole lot of warm water from which to pull energy on your way to landfall. We shall see.

 

Nobody seems too worked up about that disturbance in the middle, but TD10 is getting a lot of looks, and it's already being tracked.

 

Maybe the storm will open up a gigantic sinkhole under Mar-a-Lago. That would be epic.

 

Force Thirteen's You Tube update from last night showed a much more defined eyewall forming just south of Nassau. They're back on at 11 a.m. ET, so I'll be interested to see any additional strengthening.

 

Latest report from WRAL is two-pronged.
1. Ocracoke has been given a mandatory evacuation.
2. It's supposed to only be a tropical storm dropping about 3 inches of rain east of 95 by the time it hits the Old North State.

 

Unless Brevard County gives a manadatory evac of the barrier islands, I think my folks and siblings are hunkering down. They both live in concrete block homes well away from the Atlantic (although both are on the Banana River) and decently elevated. We shall see.
