thought we would get at least one C5 this year but not in NOVEMBER. We have had more major hurricanes in the greek alphabet than we did in the normal list, can 2020 just end already.

Last 2 weeks ago Category 5 Super Typhoon Goni made landfall in Catanduanes, Philippines with a maximum sustained winds of 195 mph with gusts up to 235 mph strongest at landfall anywhere on the earth this 2020 also the rival of Haiyan for strongest landfall in the world. 90% of catanduanes and other parts of Bicol region Philippines were destroyed! Also, the Philippines has already received 7 back to back Typhoons for only just one month! The latest was 4 days ago with Typhoon Vamco that destroyed Bicol, Central and the hardest hit was in Northern Luzon, Philippines and until now retrieval and operations is ongoing because a alot of houses, buildings etc. were submerged in flash flood. The fatalities are continuosly rising! And yesterday, magnitude 6.4 earthquake strucked Mindanao, Philippines. Stay safe!

The deal is two category 4 or above in the same place. And this late in November. That never happened.

[@cechly]

ok i must drop this here. i feel like this. they have data from 100 years of studing. everytime i hear about sea surface temp., wind sheer and other stuff that can affect it. they know how it will behave, they can see it now with all those instruments. they even know there will be rapid intensification. yet, couple days ago, this should have been just a cat 1, possibly 2 storm if everything is favourable. and see this. i know, cat 4 - 5 isnt really a big of a difference. but i feel like they know whats going to happen, but they cant tell the people, bc panic would occur and hysteria. then the path would change and the hysteria would start a few miles somewhere else. idk, or maybe is it the money ? or something else im missing ? if they said 4 days ago just get out, possibly cat 4 is being born.. but they didnt. and it happens so often, with eta, with so many storms now. am i wrong ? i know youre gonna say they want to be sure before saying that, but i feel they are pretty sure in the beginning. even you can tell when the conditions are favourable.

[@PianoMan-hx3ev]

I keep hearing people such as yourself cry climate change. What do you suppose we do? Would you be willing to give up your car? How about half of your food? The more you eat, the more greenhouse gases are emitted to produce that food. How about NOT having children? They emit greenhouse gases. How about using 80% less electricity all around? How about cutting your smartphone usage 80%? How about taking one for the team and doing your part? You see, there’s no easy answer and if we leave it up to big tech and govt, they’ll have us all in shackles. Step out of the box and take a look at the sun...that comment comes from a friend of mine who is a scientist.

[@Toxoid49b]

@@PianoMan-hx3ev The largest contributors to the climate crisis are not individuals, but are primarily the result of current industry practices. Bad actors in the industries with the most climatological impact have pushed the narrative that it is up to individuals to solve the crisis when in reality sensible regulations to industry would dramatically improve climate change outlook. The only people who stand to loose anything from a paradigm shift to cleaner industry practices are those who profit from the ecological damage they inflict. In reality, taking steps toward a better climate and environment will result in improvements to technology, industry, and general quality of life.

[@PianoMan-hx3ev]

Toxoid49b I like your answer, actually and agree in total. I’m just afraid we’ll lose our basic freedoms in the process. Beginning to wonder if those are just rabbit hole scare tactics in order to keep the status quo? Finding the truth on most matters is very hard in this day and age, isn’t it? Sheesh. I’m all for a clean environment. We should all be working towards that, along with individual freedoms for sure:)

Recon has it dropping in intensity with surface winds to 150mph but the pressure is still around 917mb. Will likely make landfall as a strong cat 4, devastating.

[@markuswaldron9305]

[@volcrazy89]

It did for a while, it was just quite small. Also, it lost its eye before impact because it reacted with land for quite a while before landfall because it was moving so slowly.

Eta had a 6 nautical mile eye and underwent an eyewall replacement cycle. Iota’s eye is twice as large and is more stable
