This visible imagery of the hurricane concerns me for a variety of reasons. Need more time to tell, and it could just be the nighttime reflections, but the core looks like it is potentially really getting its act together.

That's what I was thinking as I was watching the GOES infrared loop. It looks like it's getting stronger for sure.

I noticed pressure dropped another 3mb in the 9 p.m. advisory as well.

I’m very annoyed that everything in Orlando closed early tbh. It’s really nice out and will be until mid tomorrow at least. No mcdonald’s Open RIP

Publix closed at 8 and until further notice. All the fast food places near me closed at 2. Gotta give employees time to prepare and get with their families

It's unlikely but nobody should count out it becoming a Cat 5 again.

Powers out probably for good down in Cutler bay. Was peeping out the back yard when the sky went green.

 

[Tyrant Rave]

Power just flickered. Guess it's coming.

Also laughing cause one of my employees just texted me and asked if they should go to work tomorrow. OF COURSE NOT

West Palm here. Very fortunate that we are not going to take a direct hit on the east side, but it's still stressful. We are already hearing that people are losing power.

 

[How About No]

Did you board up your windows?

Yup....

Aww they look like bandaids!

Also hoping for you everything stays together ❤

That's for everyone, be safe, I don't wanna hear about any dead gaffers

Dude is on the tenth floor right next to the ocean, with a hurricane coming. Freaking nuts

 

[robochimp]

I think the three guys was Reed the tornado chaser and his group. They looked for him and didn't find him. The white van is with their group I think? Not sure.

But then possibly the same guy walked past the camera again?

Yeah the guy taking a nap just walked in front of the camera. Can't say they didn't try and help the guy.

You're mad people aren't at work when they should be getting ready for a huge fucking storm. Got it.

All I can think about is: why are people still in that area? The Key West thread is just as bad.

Nervous but trying to keep chill. Trying to stay hopeful. Worried about parents at shelter 12 miles north of me. Got things ready the best that I could. First time home owner since June and have given a lot of time in getting it the way I want it.

Really happy I had giant tree cut down and stump ground down Monday.

Still 10 days out...I remember when the models had Irma making landfall in D.C./New Jersey as a category 5 record breaking monster

 

[Dishwalla]

Some early Irma tracks had it going up to NYC/NJ, so I don't take much stock in those yet.

That building probably is going to ride that storm out pretty well. Some broken windows, but the storm surge will be handled.

TAMPA, September 6, 2017 – Following rigorous scientific wind testing on a full-scale, 1,400 square foot single-story home in its unique laboratory this summer, the Insurance Institute for Business & Home Safety (IBHS) has important new guidance for all homeowners preparing for major wind storms such as Hurricane Irma: close all interior doors,

Huh, good tip.

in addition to all windows and exterior doors.

Yeah, no shit.

Edit: guess its too early for that.

Interior doors can be projectiles, so yeah.
