Yeah, Max Mayfield said on NBC 6 to prepare for a Cat. 1 and hope that it stays a TS. Shutters are on the side of the house waiting (ugh i hope i don't have to put them up!) oh btw, i would say that this is the core of the storm beginning to form as we speak, please tell me im wrong:

Yeah, it's eerily peaceful here. No ambience of electric drills yet.
Dunno if people even know what's going on.

Noticed yesterday the web site for the NOAA sat images seems to have been upgraded and there are some changes to the way the web page loads.
Just noticed the radar option to overlay the sat image. I'm wondering, is this new, or did I just not notice this option before? I really like how you can compare what is showing in the various sat images with the long-range radar.
Also it looks like by late tonight we'll be able to see pretty close to the center of the TS on long range radar.

I live in Jupiter, Palm Beach County, and they just came on TV-12 and said that they screwed up regarding where the eye was. He said they will have the new tracking at 8 p.m., and that it is directly east of West Palm Beach.

Looks like is trying to develop a around the presumed center. There is also something resembling an eye on the long-range radar out of Miami. This could become a hurricane sooner rather than later if these features persist, though the is still pretty small and there is still some dry air lurking around that could disrupt things.

Justin in Miami - I think you found the vortmax on the eastern edge of this loop, not the broader clear area, but the (small tight circulation) just below Great Abaco with an apparent NW motion. It could be vorticity spinning off as the system develops. I've been wrong before. Here is your link again:

Thank You Very Much! My kids are saying, "it's not coming anywhere near us!". They don't understand that the straight line is just the center and there are hundreds of miles of bad weather around the center. They remember all too well , and Jeanne, so now I can show them where the centers of those storms were and how much fun we had here from them. Now they get it!
Thanks again!

I know it's very early, but what is your best guess right now, based on the weather patterns, for us here in Tallahassee?
Edit: lots of rain, probably enough to allow us to set a new all-time record for August (we're only about 4" behind after today), and some wind. If it comes in on the track, expect widespread power outages and for the coast to be devestated. We'll have to see if that pans out and make changes if it doesn't look like it will, though. --Clark

By my radar and IR Satellite satellite guesstimates, I place the center directly under the rapidly deepening red ball due east of WPB moving NW. Also, it appears to be the tight spin and not the broader spin showing on radar.

This is a great loop out of Washington State. I think. It is a water vapor and it really shows off the center as well as anything I have seen. I don't have any markers or I would draw circles. It looks to me if it were to continue with no jogs, that Lake O. would have a visitor.

It appears that is the center considering all the storms are rotating around it now..

not quite due west per the radar loops IMO but certainly wnw or even just north of due west.... easly to follow center right now... not NW for sure.. interesting to see if it goes wsw down the road as some models hint at due to the building of the ridge... I think one thing that will be critical is just how far west this thing gets out in the GOM.... could be the difference in an AL landfall or PCB landfall.... some still don't think its going into the GOM... I think it will and I think the GDFL might has a good bead on this cyclone, especially if it continues to develop.... stay tuned.... plenty of crow in the freezer...
