    Gas is hard to come by in many areas. You don't take Houston out for a few days without a hiccup in gas supply at least regionally.

    Someone mentioned how they wish they'd taken out more cash the last hurricane. Just read that there are long lines at the banks.


    Just remembered the thread with the poster that worked at a strip club in college. Strip club atms have more cash than branch banks.

    like canefan, she's not going anywhere. me being there is the only way she'd actually evacuate. assuming broward doesn't get the brunt and we ride it out she has tons of gas and a chainsaw she can't run

    I may be delirious but it looks like Euro just made a big switch and is in agreement with GFS now, at least on track and relative timing.
    Will be very interesting to see what NHC does with official track at 5, would be a pretty huge change.

    For reference, here was the previous run of the Euro at the same time frame -

    NHC starting to pull east, though not as quickly as the euro and gfs.

    Is there a website that keeps up with the actual track versus different projected model tracks?

    yeah, i've never seen NHC make such a huge change in one advisory, they usually split the difference, would expect to see the 11AM advisory much farther right assuming nothing changes with the 06z GFS run.

    EDIT - 06z GFS run is uploading now to Levi's site, still don't trust the intensity exactly but i think the truth is somewhere between the two models. Loading very slowly but it looks like it might even be taking it a bit farther east.

    not at the moment, but hopefully it finds a weakness in the ridge it can follow all the way out to sea.

    Those crazy dudes who were out periscoping Harvey, they couldn't do that with this storm right? Winds too violent? Been watching live cam streams of the islands and dear god that looks scary.

    So the longer Irma takes to get to North of Cuba, the more it will be pushed East? Seems like what models are showing but I could be way off.

    All I'm looking for out of Irma is

    • Stay the fuck away from Jersey.
    • Nobody gets killed when...
    • ...it levels Disney because...
    • I am supposed to go in October and I hate the place.
