  1. One problem....you might be arrested as this was stated in the media, but I get you, Reed Timmer point of view . Ps check his twitter.
  2. Hurricane Dorian NHC 5:00 PM EDT Mon Sep 2 Location: 26.8°N 78.4°W Moving: Stationary Min pressure: 940 mb Max sustained: 145 mph
  3. I can't even imagine what those people have and still are going through right now.
  4. There will only be rain bands, no real action until tomorrow. https://livestream.com/accounts/6180769/events/3168202 I will be using this stream when the time comes https://www.earthcam.com/usa/florida/daytona/?cam=daytona
  5. No change NHC 9:00 PM EDT Sun Sep 1 Location: 26.6°N 77.7°W Moving: W at 5 mph Min pressure: 915 mb Max sustained: 185 mph Chilling here for the music https://www.pscp.tv/trumpet_news/1zqJVEyQZgwGB
  6. This has to be one of the most slowest moving Hurricanes I've ever seen, 5mph. https://weather.com/weather/radar/interactive/l/USFL0392:1:US?base=roadsLight&layer=satir&series=observation&zoom=7.00&opacity=70&center=26.93,-78.62
  7. NHC Active Tropical Cyclones 8:00 PM EDT Sun Sep 1 Location: 26.6°N 77.6°W Moving: W at 5 mph Min pressure: 915 mb Max sustained: 185 mph
  8. Thanks for that, best footage I've seen. I wonder if they'll ever put cameras outside of the Plane.
  9. Doesn't the friction over land kill tropical cyclones? Subject : C2) Doesn't the friction over land kill tropical cyclones? Contributed by Chris Landsea (NHC) and Sim Aberson (HRD) No. During landfall, the increased friction over land acts - somewhat contradictory - to both decrease the sustained winds and also to increase the gusts felt at the surface (Powell and Houston 1996). The sustained (1 min or longer average) winds are reduced because of the dampening effect of larger roughness over land (i.e. bushes, trees and houses over land versus a relatively smooth ocean). The gusts are stronger because turbulence increases and acts to bring faster winds down to the surface in short (a few seconds) bursts. However, after just a few hours, a tropical cyclone over land will begin to weaken rapidly - not because of friction - but because the storm lacks the moisture and heat sources that the ocean provided. This depletion of moisture and heat hurts the tropical cyclone's ability to produce thunderstorms near the storm center. Without this convection,the storm rapidly fills. An early numerical simulation (Tuleya and Kurihara 1978) had shown that a hurricane making landfall over a very moist region (i.e. mainly swamp) so that surface evaporation is unchanged, intensification may result. However, a more recent study (Tuleya 1994) that has a more realistic treatment of surface conditions found that even over a swampy area a hurricane would weaken because of limited heat sources. Indeed, nature conducted this experiment during Andrew as the hurricane traversed the very wet Everglades, Big Cypress and Corkscrew Swamp areas of southwest Florida. Andrew weakened dramatically: peak winds decreased about 33% and the sea level pressure in the eye rose 19 mb (Powell and Houston 1996).
  10. Funny thing is I got it from Reed Timmers twitter account, guess I should've read the comments first
  11. And me subbing to the channel *rolls eyes* unsub and reporting.
  12. Well that rain was insane, defiantly flash flooding worth. Met Eireann said 25-40mm of rain..no no more like 60mm within 20mins.
  13. Rain and strong winds as Cold Front moves in, slower than I thought, lightning has subsided a lot over the south east of Ireland, seeing some activity in central Ireland. I might be to far north for any Storms *a gust slams window closed as I type*
  14. SHANNON AIRPORT RAINFALL RADAR NOT OPERATIONAL The Met Éireann rainfall radar at Shannon Airport is currently not operational due to a technical issue, hence the loss of rainfall radar coverage in the south-west of Ireland. We apologise for any inconvenience caused. It is under service and due to resume operation this week pending successful repair works. We will update this post if any further information becomes available. No further updates – 8th August Published 05/08/2019 It's hard trying to figure out the core of the storms, everything is smudged -_-
  15. I had a storm feeling, so I got out of bed. Within the past hour or more I've had heavy persistent rain, even my daughter was surprised, rather gusty but nothing dangerous to blow a branch of. The rain and wind has calmed down for now, I shall stay awake for the second round heading from the South-east of Ireland. Ps a Thunderstorm seems to of came alive in The Channel.
  16. Things have calmed down here now. Was not the best but was unexpected. See what tomorrow brings.
  17. @mountain shadow Looks like it's already starting with showers building up
