Irma Discussion Thread

Will here you go...that WSW movement shown here is the same as the storm we may not speak of. Again though, just one run showed this and we can be certain that tonight's 00z run will be different.

I would like to make a formal motion, that from this point forward, August 29, 2017, that any and all tropical events be suspended until further notice. This includes, but is not limited to the following: tropical cyclones in any manner, hurricanes, tropical depressions, tropical storms and any related rain event that would produce substantial and/or flooding rain to any and all areas which encompass the area commonly referred to as the Gulf of Mexico, (hereinafter referred to as "GOM"). This shall prohibit development of any natural event aforementioned. The only recognized exception heretofore is what is commonly referred to as, "a late afternoon shower", within the weather community.

By the power duly vested in me, I now place it for vote.

All in favor YEAH
All opposed NEIGH

Seems like we've seen this episode before LOL.


Only about an hour now to the 00z GFS which will probably show it hitting Bermuda!

Monday morning, move south of west toward the Lesser Antilles. Pretty close to the 18z GFS so far.

Wednesday morning...stronger than the 18z:
