I took a flight on JAL from Seattle to Tokyo. The turbulence was similar to this for about 20 minutes. The pilot came on the PA and said something to the effect of "ladies & gentlemen, it seems we've entered a pocket of moderate turbulence, we should be out of it in about 20 minutes". I'd hate to see what he calls severe turbulence 😲

They do it to take physical measurements. And they have lost about 1-2 planes and crew per decade. If you were talking about riding out the storm... Frequently the storms come up so fast you don't have a good option to leave. The roads and freeways and gasoline supply just aren't set up to cope with 10 million people suddenly moving north 600 mi. And for every storm that actually takes lives, three are the storms missed by 80 mi and weren't a problem. And it was good to be on site so you could help repair your property before it took further damage. If the 100 mi wide path actually hits your area, you could die. If it doesn't and you left the area you might suffer financially for the next year due to the cost.

It was placed in the most powerful hurricane category - five - though it has fluctuated in strength, and was subsequently downgraded to a category four. While the hurricane dropped in intensity on Tuesday, officials warned that it could double in size before striking Florida again on Wednesday. The core of the hurricane is expected to pass over west-central Florida on Wednesday, with a large storm surge expected along a swathe of the state's coast. It is then due to cut across the peninsula before ending up in the Atlantic Ocean.

It could strike near the city of Tampa, whose wider metropolitan area has a population of more than three million people. Forecasters are warning of torrential rain, flash flooding, high winds and possible storm surges - which occur when water moves inland from the coast. They say Milton could be the worst storm to hit the area in about a century - with a surge of 10-15ft (3-4.5m) possible, and localised rainfall of up to 1.5ft.
