2020 Tropical Storms/Hurricanes

[fla4fun]

I feel sorry for New Orleans, sandwiched in between the two. That’s a lot of rain to deal with. Everyone stay safe!

Most of Florida now out of the cone with the 11am update

Something I want to point out to people who aren't accustomed to watching forecasts of tropical disturbances - the edges of the cone are the possible track of the center of circulation or eye of the storm, not the edges of the area possibly affected by the storm. In other words, per the forecast Ryan posted above, by 8 AM Tuesday the eye of a cat. 1 hurricane might be right there on the Florida Gulf Coast rather than out in the Gulf, meaning that Orlando would be experiencing winds and rain as a result.

I know many of you are already aware of that, but every now and then someone follows this thread and interprets the cone of uncertainty as being the extent of the storm's effects.

Hoping it goes the same way as the last warning and no catastrophic damages hit mainland anywhere.

Just saw on twitter that there is a town Chauvin LA. South of NOLA that is currently under both hurricane watches for these storms at once... weather channel saying they can’t remember this ever happening. Wishing those who live there safety and whatever it takes to get through this.

I did read there has never been 2 hurricane landfalls to happen same day

And first time since 1939 there would be 2 hurricanes in the gulf at same time

My favorite city in the U.S. and am deeply concerned.

Looking at the latest computers coming in and they are keeping the storm even FURTHER away from Florida.

If this trend continues it is very possible Florida might have some clouds and spotty rain and thats about it.

I am betting at 5pm with the new cone they will shift it yet again further south and west.

I present to you.. 2020

And CA has fire tornadoes. The earth doesn’t like us this year.

Yep . Hoping for some shifts in the tracks...at least one of them!

Yeah a guy DH works with said his house is in both cones of uncertainty. How fun 2020.

I didn’t want to “like” your post, but I understand the sentiment. One thing that might help is with two systems that close together, the first one may churn up the water enough to keep the second from strengthening as much. Something about it reduces the temperature of the water and there’s not enough time for the temperature to go up again, which deprives the second storm of “fuel”. I wish they would just dissipate altogether.

Me too! I was joking maybe they’ll cancel each other out!

More than a bit funny, I’d say.

Folks need to keep spirits up, as well as their guard!

We dodged bullets for too long I guess. We are about to start cleaning our patio up and moving things inside.

Stay safe.
