How far from the eyewall do the 115mph winds go? My house is in Hobe Sound, between Stuart and Jupiter...
P.S. I'm NOT there right now!!! Actually, I'm in Tampa... looks like I can run, but I can't hide!

Lou,
As one of the founding fathers of , (sort of)= you not me, nothing I may have recently PMed others was a direct attack...believe me, it IS frustrating trying to sypher thru posts when a thread goes off topic...everyone in the entire state is so shell-shocked I made the executive decision to let everything thru (basically). I'd love to read a cliff notes in the morning, ya know
Lets dispense with the chit-chat...we're all in this together, or why the hell would we be here?
This IS and continues to be "THE SEASON FROM HELL" but I think it's almost over...one more hurdle that goes by the name of Jeanne.
For the next 24-48, I decree this is now "LOVE ONE ANOTHER" time and let's all pitch in to help answer/find/espouse info for the greater good.
If we face another, we'll deal with that too.
The only thing I'm disappointed in is the fact that the Rabbit never showed up to even try the voodoo hex...
Ah, the power of cheese...

sure looks like the eye is trying to tighten up a tad as it makes landfall, at least that's the impression I get looking at the radar loops....

Lou, I am with you on this. I made a similar statement, thiis has nothing to do with Phil. However I dio think that the rules around here are not enforced equitably. But such is life.

Amateur radio operator KA4WJA is on a sailboat anchored near Stuart, FL and is operating on 3.760mhz ssb giving running account of Jeanne's crossing. He is currently in the eye.

Were you mostly lurker status back then? It seems you emerged out the last 2 years or so. Also, how did you get 1000 more posts than I have? Lol. I was the first to the 600 category, and that was earlier this summer or late last year. /punk

Vicious storm #4 for Florida. Let's hope this one's a rap for the Floridians.

COme on everyone. Can we please drop it an talk about the hurricane.
Doesn't it seem as if the edge of the eye hit the florida coast and then the eye started shrinking with the edge staying right on the coast.

Yes, let's drop it and stay on topic now. I mentioned to Frank P. that it did indeed look like the eye shrank, also. Don't know what the heck that means.
Pressure here is 29.56"
Winds At N 23 with Gusts to 35
Seems a lot higher than THAT. God what are we in for here????
Not to mention the rain hasn't even started.....

Live in Fla but watching Jeanne from Geogia tonight.
Looking at the radar loops, I'm noting that Jean is a dryer storm than was. Not raining much North of Cape Canaveral at this point.
Heavier wind in the eye wall. The immediate coast where the eye is landfalling is getting pounded. Reports of roofs being blown off and cars being blown off a bridge over the intercoastal. Let's hope the car report was false.
NOt sure what all the remarks were about earlier. LI Phil,
you are part of what makes this board rock..
Hang in there everyone. Jeanne is gonna be mean as she cuts across the state tonight.
Be kind to one another.

Melbourne radar shows the eye moving on shore fairly consistently. Maybe a fifth of the way in by my reckoning.

Is it my bleary eyes watching now seemingly infinite loops, or is Jeanne slowing down? The latest track has slowed her down with about 20+ hours to go from Stuart to Crystal River. Great if it verifies - alot less wind on the left coast. Not so good for FW flooding though.

The weather here in Seminole County (20 miles N of Orlando) is going downhill rapidly. Winds have gotten much stronger in the past 30 minutes. I just looked outside and a tree is already down on my nextdoor neighbor's yard. Looking at the Melbourne radar, I see what appears to be the first really severe rainband getting ready to enter our area. It is just nudging into Eastern Orange County (for those unfamiliar with Florida, that is the county Orlando is located). It is racing west very qucikly and will likely move through my area in the next half hour or so. Beyond that, is the solid bulk of the truly nasty stuff that Jeanne has to offer. This looks like a Loooooooong night.

Steve, I went back and corrected it about 30 seconds after I posted it...I meant LOU was one of the founding fathers, not me...I lurked for maybe 5 years...
How's the hurricane partay?

TWC has the new map up...and it still looks like that NW turn will occur, only later on. Which is not a good thing right now.

Lou, that nasty band you're talking about just came through here in the last 15 minutes. It was a doozie! Hang on! A little lull now but the radar shows we'll be getting hit pretty steady now for the next hour.

Yep that band looks real rough. I was watching it too. Hang on she's not through yet.
Would the warm water in the Gulf Stream have anything to do with the eye shrinking?
