 Hurricane IrmaSeptember 2017 She is a large, beautiful storm in the Atlantic As of Sept 4 she is way out in the Atlantic, where will she go? Compare her beauty to Andrew and Floydcj.myfreeforum.org/about5703.htmlHarvey out, Irma in
August 31, 2017 - The Tropics: Hurricane Irma has rapidly intensified into a category 2 storm. With a minimum central pressure of 979mb and maximum sustained winds of 100mph, the system was moving west, northwest and 10mph. Irma is forecast to become a category 4 hurricane with potential to reach category five status. It is still too soon to forecast track beyond the Leeward Islands, but the United States will need to monitor this one very closely into next week. THE EXPLANATION: Conditions will continue to improve today as Harvey continues to lift northward, away from the Baton Rouge area. The tropical rain bands will not be as heavy and will drop from the scattered to isolated category with about 40 percent of the 13 Parish 3 County forecast area receiving measurable rain. Winds will decrease as well. By Friday, an upper level trough left in the wake of Harvey will remain in place across the forecast area, but a much drier air mass will considerably curtail convective development. A weak surface high will build in on Saturday and last through the weekend. As a result, Friday through Sunday will result in typical late summer rain coverage of 20 to 30 percent—limited to the afternoons during peak heating and maximum sea breeze interactions. High temperatures will be close to normal, in the upper 80s and lower 90s. An inverted trough and weak surface low in the Gulf of Mexico will begin to increase rain coverage into next week. The increased instability with a return of tropical moisture will allow scattered showers and thunderstorms to develop mainly inland during the days and mainly coastal during the nights. Looking beyond that, there are a number of interesting scenarios possible according to the forecast models by the end of next week. First and foremost, we may need to keep a close eye on Tropical Storm Irma. There seems to be potential for this storm to become quite strong in the Atlantic Ocean. It is not yet known what will happen from there. Second, a late summer cold front may approach the area during the middle of next week. Forecast models are hinting at temperatures running 5-10 degrees below average for the time of year, which could mean highs in the low to mid 80s and lows in the mid 60s. Humidity would take a break too. This could lead to cooler and drier weather just in time for next weekend.

Hurricane Irma expected to strengthen in Atlantic Ocean this weekend
Sep 2, 2017 - Powerful Hurricane Irma is expected to strengthen over the eastern Atlantic Ocean during the weekend – potentially becoming as potent as a Category 5 storm as it swirls its way toward the Leeward Islands. Irma strengthened to a Category 3 storm with 110 mph winds moving northwest at 13 mph and no coastal watches or warnings were in effect. "It is much too early to determine what direct impacts Irma will have on the continental United States," the National Hurricane Center said. "Regardless, everyone in hurricane-prone areas should ensure that they have their hurricane plan in place, as we are now near the peak of the season." www.msn.com/en-us/weather/topstories/hurricane-irma-expected-to-strengthen-in-atlantic-ocean-this-weekend/ar-AAr5wiy?li=BBnb4R7Hurricane Irma's path toward U.S. still uncertainSept. 3, 2017 - Hurricane Irma regained strength to a Category 3 storm, with winds at 115 mph and an unpredictable path that might strike the United States next week anywhere between Florida and Nova Scotia. The storm could also turn back out to sea without hitting the U.S. mainland. “The forecast cone is several hundred miles wide, so we’ll all be watching, waiting and being prepared,” Klotzbach said Sunday. “We don’t want the entire coastline from Florida to Maine to freak out, but pay attention.” Irma is currently tracking toward the Bahamas by Thursday. The National Hurricane Center said Sunday that Irma will likely be a major hurricane — meaning a Category 3 or higher — when it moves near the northeastern Leeward Islands by the middle of this week and could cause dangerous winds, storm surge and rainfall. As the hurricane strengthens over warm water, it could slam into the Caribbean islands as a Category 4 with winds topping 150 mph. www.ajc.com/news/hurricane-irma-path-toward-still-uncertain/K0bZ7FdcXQdBTwNbMyTAUP

www.msn.com/en-us/weather/topstories/hurricane-irmas-path-toward-us-still-uncertain/ar-AArbqia?li=BBnbcA1Hurricane Irma's path toward U.S. still uncertain9/4/17 Hurricane Irma regained strength Sunday to a Category 3 storm, with winds at 115 mph and an unpredictable path that might strike the United States next week anywhere between Florida and Nova Scotia. A sharper image of the hurricane’s track should come into focus by Tuesday, said meteorologist Philip Klotzbach with Colorado State University. The storm could also turn back out to sea without hitting the U.S. mainland. “The forecast cone is several hundred miles wide, so we’ll all be watching, waiting and being prepared,” Klotzbach said Sunday. “We don’t want the entire coastline from Florida to Maine to freak out, but pay attention.” While Texas and Louisiana dry out from Tropical Storm Harvey's devastating rainfall, the nation is on high alert but needs to be patient, Klotzbach said. He suggested residents on the Eastern Seaboard refresh preparedness kits and keep close watch of the forecasts. "Subtle shifts in the path now can make big changes as to where it goes next," Klotzbach said. "Follow your local emergency managers and start thinking about what you'd do if there's an order to evacuate or shelter-in-place." Irma is tracking toward the Bahamas by Thursday. The National Hurricane Center said Sunday that Irma will likely be a major hurricane — meaning a Category 3 or higher — when it moves near the northeastern Leeward Islands by the middle of this week and could cause dangerous winds, storm surge and rainfall. Hurricane watches were issued Sunday for portions of the Leeward Islands and a NOAA hurricane hunter aircraft had been deployed en route to Irma, according to the hurricane center. As the storm strengthens over warm water, it could slam into the Caribbean islands as a Category 4 with winds topping 150 mph. The hurricane center said it is too early to determine what direct impact Irma could have on the U.S. coast by next weekend. Sunday’s advisories said Irma was still 885 miles east of the Leeward Islands moving at about 14 mph. In the eastern Pacific Ocean, Tropical Storm Lidia degenerated Sunday with maximum sustained winds dropping to near 35 mph after taking aim at Mexico’s Baja Peninsula. Initially, Lidia brought concerns about possible flooding and mudslides in Baja California Sur and western Jalisco that received almost 20 inches of rain. Tropical moisture from Lidia will spread across parts of the desert Southwest into Monday and produce scattered showers and thunderstorms in Nevada, western Arizona and Southern California. The weather service warned of life-threatening surf and rip currents produced by the residual storm swells.

Category 3 Hurricane Irma gains strength, could target Florida
September 4, 2017 8:49am - South Florida is keeping a wary eye on Hurricane Irma as it continues to gain strength, setting a course for a potential U.S. landfall by next week. Irma intensified overnight Sunday, with maximum sustained winds of 120 mph as of Monday morning at 8 a.m., forecasters said. The storm is located about 610 miles east of the Leeward Islands and is moving west-southwest at 14 mph. Carribean islands, including Antigua and St. Kitts, are under a hurricane watch, meaning those areas could experience tropical storm-force winds within the next 48 hours. However, further strengthening is forecast, and the storm is expected to become a Category 4 hurricane "in the next couple of days," 10Weather WTSP meteorologist Grant Gilmore said. On its current track, Irma could impact Puerto Rico and the British Virgin Islands as a strong Category 4 hurricane with maximum sustained winds of at least 130 mph. Irma has a well-defined eye wall that is not going to see any weakening. By Saturday at 2 am, forecasters say the hurricane could be situated just north of Cuba, with a northwesterly track that could approach south Florida. Everybody from Florida and up the East Coast will be watching this track very closely because there could be some impact. The Miami Dolphins are monitoring the storm ahead of Sunday's season opener against the Tampa Bay Bucs at Hard Rock Stadium. As of now there are no plans to delay or move the game. But if South Florida is threatened by the storm it's worth noting the Dolphins and Buccaneers have the same bye week, Nov. 19. In a pair of tweets Sunday, Gov. Rick Scott urged Floridians to be prepared: "As we continue to monitor Hurricane Irma, families should make sure their Disaster Supply Kits are ready today. FL knows how important it is to be prepared. Encourage your loved ones to have a plan ahead of any potential storm.'' TAMPA BAY IS DUE: The region is not prepared for a major hurricane In Vero Beach, residents were stocking up on supplies at a Lowe's Home Improvement Store. www.beaches.tampabay.com/news/weather/hurricanes/category-3-hurricane-irma-gains-strength-could-target-florida/2336214

www.nowtheendbegins.com/irma-threatens-florida-hits-panic-button-mass-run-food-water/As Irma Threatens, Florida Hits The Panic Button With Massive Run On Food And Water Supplies
On Monday night, shoppers said, Publix in College Park was out of bottled water. A viewer also gave News 6 a picture showing empty water shelves at the Walmart on Alafaya Trail near the University of Central Florida. Micah Kropp stopped by Publix in College Park and bought water by the gallon since that was the only option. He's also stocking up on canned food, crackers and diapers.9/5/17 Although Hurricane Irma is days away from potential impact, the current projected path shows it possibly hitting Florida as a Category 5 storm. EDITOR’S NOTE: I live in Northeast Florida in Saint Augustine, 2 hours away from Orlando and about 6 hours away from Miami, but the people here had already started picking the shelves clean. As of 6:00 PM this evening, not a single grocery store or supply market had any water for sale. They promised more supplies were coming, and then refused to say when. The people are in a very clear state of panic, and have begun hording food and especially water. If this is how people react to natural weather phenomenon, how do you think they will get through the Tribulation if they miss the Rapture? Answer. They won’t. People around Central Florida were already experiencing a shortage of supplies at grocery stores on Monday, but the managers of some big-box stores said they have reinforcements on the way. On Tuesday, shoppers lined up outside several stores, including Costco in Altamonte Springs, for a chance to get supplies, including water, batteries and food. “It was a little bit of a pandemonium,” shopper Diane Williams said. “Getting here was worse than being inside. It’s just that everybody is panicked, so they are preparing, which is wise, but it’s just, like, crazy.” florida-panics-hurricane-irma-threatens-01 THE WATER AISLE AT THE WALMART IN SAINT AUGUSTINE, FLORIDA TAKEN AT 6:00 PM TUESDAY Patrick Sutton, the assistant manager at the Home Depot in Altamonte Springs, said the store ran out of generators on Monday and water and flashlights by Tuesday afternoon. “I think everyone is more aware of what’s going on because of what happened with Harvey in Texas,” he said. “I was here in 2004 for Charley and it was not taken so seriously back then. Now, everybody is taking it more seriously, which allows them to get the supplies they need and gives us time to get the supplies soon enough.” Home Depot Corporate launched its Rapid Response Team, sending trucks from Atlanta to Florida on Tuesday to restock the shelves across the state. “My trucks are on the road right now and will be coming in the next days. We have a couple of more days before the storm hits, so we have more time,” Sutton said. “By the end of the week, they will have everything they need.” On Monday night, shoppers said, Publix in College Park was out of bottled water. A viewer also gave News 6 a picture showing empty water shelves at the Walmart on Alafaya Trail near the University of Central Florida. Micah Kropp stopped by Publix in College Park and bought water by the gallon since that was the only option. He’s also stocking up on canned food, crackers and diapers. “I got a 1-year-old and a 3-year-old, so (I’ve) got to think a little differently with them at the helm, and then will be traveling this week for work, so not sure when I will have the time. It will be kind of hectic,” Kropp said. A spokesperson with Target headquarters said Florida stores will be getting additional supplies and resources ahead of the storm. “We’re providing stores with additional supplies that we know our guests need to stock up, including water, batteries, flashlights, toiletries, camping supplies, cleaning supplies and nonperishable food,” Target spokeswoman Jenna Reck said. “We’ll continue to push as many products to our stores as we safely can before the hurricane hits.” News 6 picked up supplies at the Walmart located on the corner of Princeton Street and John Young Parkway. Supplies there were plentiful, with employees steadily restocking the water aisle. Walmart management told News 6 Walmart has opened its emergency operations center at its headquarters in Arkansas for distribution. Walmart spokesperson Ragan Dickens said the company is working with store managers to see where the needs are greatest. Dickens also said 800 trucks full of only water are on their way to Florida and other trucks full of hurricane supplies are also en route. Pictures on social media showed empty water and bread shelves at other stores, including the Walmart on Alafaya Trail near UCF. Min Cho said he’s preparing for his electricity to go out. “I ordered a generator on Amazon. Should be coming on Friday. Also, some dry foods and stuff like that,” Cho said. source

Irma hits Barbuda
Sep 6, 2017 Wed. dawn - St. Johns, Antigua, Barbuda – Hurricane Irma slammed into Barbuda Wednesday. The eye of the Category 5 storm made landfall on Barbuda just before 0600 GMT with 185 mph winds, then headed northwest toward the Virgin Islands and Puerto Rico. Florida expects the greatest danger from Friday night through Monday. President Donald Trump declared states of emergency in Florida, Puerto Rico and the US Virgin Islands, authorizing federal funding to help local authorities respond. www.breitbart.com/news/mighty-hurricane-irma-makes-landfall-in-caribbean-island-of-barbudaStupids in FloriDUH should just run their tapwater into containers. They dont need bottled water! They should fill their bathtubs - good for flushing toilet or bathing. I remember Hurricanes Andrew and Floyd. BOTH headed straight for PBC - at the LAST MINUTE Andrew turned south Floyd turned north - catching people on the hiways - where you DO NOT want to be in a hurricane!
