Wow and I thought we had it bad with no power for 5 days. Not looking forward to that again. At least this time we have the travel trailer (if it doesn't blow away) which we can run everything, including the A/C with our generator.
Israel? Russia?
Israel or Bali?

Canopy top, or table bottom?
are all the different lines different tracks it is take? what do they mean
looks like a few of those lines do right thru the center of Florida
Florida has to get it's "fair share" of those suckers! I was actually thinking this would be the year Florida would get hit by a big one first.
All those lines mean they don't have a clue exactly where the storm is going. It depends on hundreds of things...currents, water temperature, land masses, upper stirring flow...the weather people put all their information in a computer and it spits out the probable paths. If it goes over Cuba, it should loose some intensity; as it nears the coastline it may produce more moisture (which happened in Harvey). It's far from an exact "science"; who knows...Redstorm wants to go into meteorology...maybe she'll "be the one" to figure out a more exact way to predict hurricanes!
The unpredictability is what's "deadly"; residents don't want to leave their homes if it's not necessary. The "cone" narrows and storm predictions get a little more accurate, it's then often to late. For instance, Harvey was headed on a straight track for Corpus; early that Friday afternoon it stirred more toward Port Aransas/Rockport. While it didn't make a lot of difference in this case; other cases it makes a great deal of difference. The storm could avoid Florida landfall all together and go directly into the Gulf...but Ed and Terri will still feel tropical force winds. On the other hand...the eye of the storm could pass directly over Terri. Everyone just needs to be prepared.
I'm still having "get back to normal" problems too just like you! Glad you're was for a much better reason...a REGULAR holiday!Do enough to "get by", make it through the short week and be ready to get busy next week!

Yes, those are all the different "track models" that different weather stations predict.
Thanks. Power loss is going to happen . When Jeanne and Frances hit, I didn't have power for 2 weeks following each storm. I am hoping to not lose cell service. Going to need all of WITW news desk.
Last I heard is the cool front won't help at all. It will be the second high pressure area that steers this storm.

My brother said the exact same thing. I could be going over there.
