Hurricane Milton update: 11:15 p.m. Monday, Oct. 7

As a major Category 5 storm, Hurricane Milton "poses an extremely serious threat to Florida," the National Hurricane Center said.
While it's forecast to bring dangerous conditions to Florida and the Tampa Bay area, Milton is expected to continue weakening slightly before reaching landfall sometime midweek.

[@James-gx9gn]

I believe the NHC forecast is a little conservative. Typically after a eyewall replacement cycle you get restrengthening and expansion of the tropical and hurricane force winds. This forecast suggests no restrengthening which would be highly unusual for a hurricane in a high temperature low shear environment. UPDATE: The eyewall replacement cycle is not far from completion now. The new larger eye is now clearly visible on infrared and the cloud tops which had warmed a bit have begun to cool again which is indicative of restrengthening. UPDATE #2: The eyewall replacement cycle is now nearly complete. Milton has wobbled a little north in the past two hours. Expect the new eye to clear out soon and for reintensification to begin. UPDATE #3: The new eye is now clearly visible on infrared so that means the Eyewall replacement cycle is essentially over.

[@kevinfarrell2897]

i thought that Low to the north was providing significant shear, no?

[@TheVuduYuDu]

@@kevinfarrell2897 it’s projected to hit the shear and dry air closer to landfall

[@James-gx9gn]

@@kevinfarrell2897 Not yet. It's too far south to be affected by shear yet

[@therealBocaStudios]

They are also missing in every single projection, yet keep it landing on Tampa. Doesn’t make sense, unless they are trying to cause mass panic. I know folks who are staying out because they believe the forecast projections..idk

[@James-gx9gn]

@@therealBocaStudios That's why there is a cone of uncertainty. Landfall is most likely somewhere near Tampa but the cone shows that landfall could potentially be as far south as Fort Myers.

Tampa Bay could take a hint from Chatham County, Georgia. Chatham County turns I-16 into all lanes headed North. It looks like that would help Tampa Bay.

They want it to hit Tampa so bad, but my money is on Sarasota to Ft. Myers. If it does swing up more, I think it'll hit as a weaker storm.

Hurricane Katrina was a category 3 by time it made landfall and it killed 1,400 people. Like a meteorologist said this morning, don’t pay attention to “categories”. It’s about storm surge and winds.

Covid caused people to work from home so many moved to warmer spots like Austin and Tampa from cold winter in Buffalo or Cleveland etc to Paradise in Tampa.

Why are our winds currently going north to south? Is this wind shire? Would think it would push the storm south.

[@DunderMifflinPaperCo.]

The front to the north is what is keeping the storm south... that's also where the wind shear is projected to lower the storm back to CAT 3 before landfall.

I don’t think so either man. Warm waters in the gulf. Heck no.

@@enzoelise Water temp isn't the factor, it's the wind shear from the front to the North that is projected to break it up and slow it down.

Oh my God, what is up with our governor? He’s playing political games while Florida is facing a major crisis. He did the same thing when hurricane Ian hit Fort Myers Beach. More political games from him DeSantis. I just saw an interview with the vice president Harris, In that interview, the vice president is asked about DeSantis refusing to return her calls. You would think DeSantis would know that we have a heavy reliance on the federal government for billions of dollars when there is a massive crisis like Heleen. DeSantis seems to have the emotional intelligence of a three-year-old. He chooses a time of crisis to play political games with the vice president of the United States? What is the matter with the guy? DeSantis, grow up! Don’t be a rude doofus in a time of crisis! Biden had to step in during hurricane Ian because DeSantis dragged his feet, didn’t want to ask for help, Biden got things rolling, DeSantis got credit for it. What is the matter with his brain?

Ocala .. Marion county .. what to expect??

[@OrangesLmao]

You're pretty inland and north so storm surge shouldn't be a big concern, but if you live in a low lying area be mindful of possible flooding rain. That county is in the direct path of the hurricane, but due to how far in you are, the winds should die down a bit. If you have any loose items on a porch or something you want to secure or get inside, make sure to do that. If you live in a stable house or building (not an RV or mobile home), staying inside should be just fine while you ride out the wind and rain. If you think you will need any more supplies for the next couple of days, it would be a good idea to get them tomorrow while there is still time left. Keep up to date with weather reports and stay safe.

[@Xylophone8]

Poor Floridians, having to deal with this and you have a governor who doesn’t give a damn about any of you!! For those of you who survive, get out and vote blue for people of substance 💙💙💙💙💙💙💙and get rid of desatan!!
