Pray for the people of Florida! Hopefully the dry air protects them. Love how Mitch always sticks with the models, no fluff with him only the interpretation of the data.

I was talking to a friend I haven't seen in 14yrs. He said he was warning his brothers about the NC Floods 1 week before it happened. He said "I've got a wea.man that tells me way before, a guy named Mitch" I said Mitch West? Yea Man. I Love when stuff like this happens.

The stronger hurricanes tend to be alittle more resistant to dry air. Some models show this comming in as a cat 4 others as a cat 1 but my guess would be a cat 3 or high end cat 2. There is enough dry air that I can't see it not having any effect but I can't see it totally shredding such a strong storm either.

Hi Mitch, we just got internet and power back recently here in the mountains of NW NC. Lost several chickens on the farm, but the vast majority are OK. Our roads are eaten up pretty bad.

hi Mitch. I am in Polk County. We had pouring rain all day. The ground is already pretty saturated and the lakes are higher than normal already. For us, the big concern is inland flooding.

[@mobileplayer3_394]

I've noticed that a lot of the hurricane models have a dry pocket forming inside the core of storm before it starts to get wrapped in. It doesn't make sense to me. It seems like the storm never really wraps the dry air in, it just starts in the southern eye wall and expands rather than encircling and choking.

[@DavidVaughan-o1t]

Hope this doesn't swing north for coastal nc

[@scott2726]

The angle is much different than Helene for a worst case scenario. Longer duration of square miles of building waves from west to east unlike Helene.. the track very important for Tampa Bay if it goes north then unfortunate catastrophic surge .. this would be all time record.. 15ft surge..1848 . We just set record surge up to 7ft..hopefully it will go south for minimal surge for Tampa. Models have trended south. Sarasota, Venice , Port Charlotte to Fort Myers very concerned for these communities for surge.. thankyou Mitch with all your details. We hope you had a blessed weekend🌎🎛🐈

[@gmdrandom6287]

If it goes south, it would be bad for the Charlotte area, but Tampa was pretty affected by Helene so it'd probably be the best case, unfortunately.

[@TryGod7]

Hey Mitch, What are your thoughts about Milton’s affects in Vero Beach and also for Sun City Center in FL?

[@MJIZZEL]

Several models show a wed night landfall which is 72 hours from now. Not 84-90. In that case, it hasn't weakened much and is cat 3 to mid cat 4.

[@ganjikotamales3045]

What's the small island above the Yucatan peninsula? They're about to get wrecked at what seems like the peak of this storm. Yikes for them. Hope they get some warnings for sure.

[@garyedwardgray7549]

Very concerned about that jet streak to the northeast. Going to keep massive divergence aloft. Worried that it may slow Milton’s weakening. It also may help try to transition Milton, which will also mean slower weakening with a broader wind field. The good news is… still looks like Milton will weaken before landfall. But I fear the models showing a virtual collapse of Milton prior to landfall will not verify. Here’s hoping they do. But I’m fairly bullish on landfall intensity, and leaning north (that same divergence may help draw Milton a bit more northward). All bad things for Tampa. So, hopefully I’m wrong. I am a meteorologists, btw, with something of a specialty in hurricanes (used to run my own hurricane forecasting business), so I’d like to think I have a bit of knowledge here. Doesn’t mean I’m always right. I sure as heck am not. So, hopefully I’m wrong here. But my initial thinking is close to a worst case for Tampa. I have a bit of a reputation for being too conservative. So, it’s pretty uncommon for me to predict a “worst case”. But I call it as I see it. Just hoping I’m wrong. Hope that dry air can collapse Milton.

Do some actual research instead of emotional N' irrational thinking. Cloud seeding does NOTHING (or potentially stalls) to hurricane intensity. Blame the hot seas and not falsities.
