Well, then Phil, I guess you might have to tell him the same thing. I'm done with it now. I would have PM'd him, but again, he's not registered.
I was only answering his comment to me, if you want to chop me for that, then fine.

wouldn't it be great if someone could just pick up this storm and throw it into Afganastan or something?

ETA's new landfall point
That's to show that it still could go either way up the coast, and it's not really quite the best time to try to guess an exact landfall point.

Sorry if I offended you. I do remember Phillips talking about the turn east before 12 o clock when Charlie was closing in. I will admit that he waited for an hour before confirming that the path was changing. Either way, lets hope some miracle takes this baby out of Florida and harms way for other states as well. By the way, will any insurance companies do business in Florida if this monster hits Florida?

No problem...and I think that the best hope is that it does go parallel up the coast and then to the NE.
As for insurance? If this one hits, I don't know that they can NOT insure people, but the rates will definitely go up.

Im supposed to be in Florida this weekend to visit my brother in-law. Our flight gets into Tampa 12:01am Saterday. My brother in-law lives in Orlando and we were suposed to go to Satellite Beach....
Should we still come and just stay in Orlando? Is that safe? Or will the flights be canceled?

Last vortex message from recon was at 2215Z, and it was 939MB. I agree it has finished this cycle and is looking less ragged overall. Also still on a WNW heading.

I was only about 500 miles off or so. Not bad. Sure looks like it is tracking more and more northerly. almost tracking nw at the moment, and wouldn't suprise me if Hank Frank is right.
I thought earlier it would get in the gulf, but doubt it. looks like a Florida hit, but maybe it won't.
Kinda missing the islands around the bahamas at the moment....but won't miss the last two.

we "used" to have a weatherman here too that went out on a limb and told everyone there was no way a storm was coming this way. that it was headed to texas. next morning everyone woke up with Opal headed this way. don't base what is going on by one persons statement. with all that have to get information with use all of those resources. that is what the mets do. as far as no way tampa is getting hurricane winds.... based on the track probably not.. but i am probably not gonna win the lottery but i still got 5 quick picks

Email from a friend:
The is now putting ashore at Vero Beach or so. That's a 24 hour southward movement from Jacksonville. If that holds the Orlando metro area will get blasted like with but worse.
I'm still forecasting a Ft. Lauderdale-Miami window, the only Meteorologist (I think) forecasting that landfall, with no changes over the past three days. Even this landfall can still blast the Tampa Bay area but more likely a Sarasota to Ft. Myers window. A path south of Miami through the Florida Keys and/or Florida Straits is also "possible".

SkeetoByte will do up his now wildly popular maps with the & models...what he needs are times, coords & windspeeds. If there is anyone on the boards who could provide him with such (like you don't have enough to do), he will then generate model maps based on the model progs.
If anyone can get that data in "NHC" form, that would be most welcome. Thanks! and Good Luck!
