Here's a link to the tornado story in PCB:

In a thread last night, I mentioned the massive hook echos off the coast of Tampa and my fear that these were tornadic. It looks like that has been confirmed in the worst possible way, unfortunately.

I just spoke with my parents and they are staying put in Ocean Springs. Nothing for me to do but worry myself to pieces. They are by a canal and the water is already rising. They will call me every few hours,

No, I think within the last 10 years we got to the "T" storm, but I would need to check that before I call it a fact. I forgot the rules for if you go through the alphabet.

TImbo, great advise... done... also I have an AC/DC convert that plugs into car and can recharge the batteries...
Cen Fl... any move to the right will help... I heard that same analysis earlier tonight, for my sake I hope it holds true, but that just makes worse somewhere else...
boy, it got hot in here in a hurry.. how did people live without AC... .
I'm going to log off for about an hour, need to go outside and maybe catch a little breeze then eat supper... come to think of it I have not eaten anything since lunch yesterday.. now that's strange for me.... Oh, I think I hear Mr. Crown calling again too...
be back online in a while, providing land line still working
thanks to all.....
later

The most storms we've ever had in a season was 21, I think that was in 1933 (?). If they were named then, we would have gotten to the end of the list. does not use Q,U,X,Y, or Z in their lists, so there are 21 names each year.
In 1995 we got to T, with 19 storms. I have begun to wonder if they will soon do away with I as well, since they have retired Isadore, Isabel, and will retire this year. There aren't a lot of I names left...

They may have to replace the "I" storms with "ME" storms.

I would just name them according to the Greek alphabet, easy and simple.

Everyone in the path needs to hunker down and take this thing seriously. I'm in Central Florida and used to get somewhat excited about these things. It was almost a holiday atmosphere at the grocery store. That was before this season.

"I" is becoming an unlucky letter for storms. Of course if they do away with it, the fierce storms will then all begin with "J."
I recall reading somewhere that if we got past "W", then the next names would be Alpha, Bravo, Charlie (though not this year I guess), etc. I will see if I can locate that link again.

Stay safe.

Charley, I think you mean Delta the Greek Alphabet.
No, that's military terminology...And I might add that delta is the FOURTH letter in the greek alphabet...alpha, beta, gamma, delta...

If U say so Mr. Spock. 
In all seriousness, there's plenty of time to discuss naming conventions in, say mid-December. Sorry to get off-topic (LI Phil is gonna get me!).
We've had multiple fatalities from both and Jeanne today, so I think we have to keep that in mind in our discussions and remember that for every one that posts here, there are many more trying to get important info from us, pros or otherwise.
Unless you curse, attack or make an assinine comment, I'm not touching anything...

When is expected landfall for eye? It looks like has picked up speed, although it may just look like it because of the landmass to make reference to.

The eye on doppler seems to be deformed, maybe just a glitch or the begining of another .

The 18Z runs are doing less of that, as they are digging the trough stronger (both models) which picks up a little more. The problem is, I doubt either one has initialized Jeanne well. My skepticism comes from the fact that even though they both do that, this is the first time they show it, and it is on an off-time run. New data doesn't get fed in until 0z.
I want to see them do it a few more times before I am convinced, but at least for now, they are trending stronger with a trough in the east. Hopefully it's enough.

Wow, take a look at the Tallahassee radar.

Are those "hook" echos?
