Again...this is a hypothetical area. Based on Wilma's movement over the 3 hour period from 2030Z to 2330Z.~danielw

See Skeetobite's Map pages for graphic versions.




stupid question.. don't laugh.... that would include miami dade county right?

btw danny i attempted to shutter the house.. but i didn't get finish.. but i have a secure area to be in the downstairs area... hope all goes well...

700 MB is FL, 950 would be skirting the tree tops

Hypothetical Wind Fields [Re: Margie]
      #62470 - Sun Oct 23 2005 08:36 PM

Using the hypothetical Landfall Location, just east of Marcos Island.

This would give an area of Hurricane Force winds south of a Bradenton to Melbourne line. The Southern Half Of the Florida Peninsula.

And Tropical Storm force winds from the Suwannee River to near Jacksonville line. Basically the Whole Folrida Peninsula!

The flight-level is 700mb. A 950mb flight level would not be advised in this situation.

The "eye" has cleared out even more on the 0015Z IR image, though there appear to be bands of convection to the SW and NE of the center that are impinging on the eye, giving it an oblong appearance. It gives the impression of a smaller eye trying to form by wrapping bands of convection closer into the center.

Is there any possibility of this storm hitting north of Fort myers. Because i believe that would put tampa in Hurricane force winds.




Firstly, any prediction I render is not official..... It is important that you know that.

Right now, the odds for Wilma-centroid impact on the Tampa/Fort Myers area directly, is lessoning... HOWEVER I cannot stress enough that Wilma is a big critter with a large circumvellate, and you should by no means think this means you're off the hook.. Tropical storm force sustained winds and possible gusts to at least hurricane force, particularly in more intense near CDO type feeder band squalls will rake said areas, even if Wilma's core stays over southern sections. In addition, this TC is apparently already become tornado happy...there are some other circumstances in the area, which are compounding this, accentuating that threat... Numerous tornado warnings have already flown and this will also add to dangers in peripheral areas not being directly assaulted by her core. So, please, if you are in the Tampa/Fort Myers areas, treat this as though you are being directly impacted and pay very close attention to your local instructions by municipalities, because their advise (more times that not) will be advise that may save your life.

off the record, you should have 40 -70 mph winds; the latter more in gusts, which could even be higher... Right now, and this is MY opinion only, Wilma appears slightly S of predicted track... Doesn't mean she won't start hooking N in the next few hours, but that is less likely...So, I personally do not believe Naples will be the landfall, but like I said, a big nasty powerful beast makes the pin point center of circulation almost irrelevant.

What do you think the time of landfall will be? The local mets say around 8am, but that sounds a little late to me

I have the Hypothetical track on some software here.

As Soon as I get another Vortex fix I will plot that and update whether she appears to be on That track or a different track.

As Tip said. The Tornado Threat is very, very real right now. And It will Only GET WORSE. As Wilma is traversing the state and interacting with a frontal boundary and jet stream.
Take ALL Tornado Warnings seriously...and Take Cover.

Hmmm, I believe tropical system usually spin off weaker tornadoes (F1 - F2). Would this low hum/rumble sound be as easy to hear as it was with the F3?

I believe 950.




Ok - so that should be a 90% conversion... or 99kts at the surface 114mph ...just shy of cat 3...But there is time and an ever improving sat/rad structure...It's just a matter of time - not that I wish that on anyone!!

Katrina and Rita both spun off F1, F2 and a few F3's in MS and LA.

They all tear up the neighborhood. Some worse than others. I believe the first fatality in MS was from an F2 in the Delta near Belzoni,MS.

Re: Extrapolated Track [Re: danielw]
      #62485 - Sun Oct 23 2005 08:57 PM

Based on the 2pm vs. 8pm changes coordinates, it appears Wilma is gaining 0.8 degrees of latitude for every 0.9 degrees of longitude. Going by the 5pm vs. 8pm coordinates Wilma is gaining 0.8 degrees latitude for every 1.0 degree of longitude.

Assuming the 5pm vs 8pm numbers, extrapolation from her current lat/lon of 23.9n, 84.4w would seem to bring Wilma farther north than your calculations. For example,
23.9n, 84.4w
24.7n, 83.4w
25.5n, 82.4w
25.9n, 81.9w

That would bring Wilma onshore somewhere just north of Naples. Do you agree? Moreover, if the 2pm vs. 8pm coordinate changes are used, then that brings landfall even closer to FMY, assuming extrapolation of course.
