probably the second best place to be on PR, next to the south west. You don't want to be in the East, Maria is going to slice through it and San Juan will get hit pretty hard. It's just about to hit now, gonna be a real rough night
Gecko 11 or 12 hours until it hits,,,,,I am wondering if these people even know it is coming, many places that maria has hit were still without power,,how would people know this monster is coming ?
Was just reading that all of PR is without electricity and they are saying it could be 4-6 months to get it restored. Longest I ever went was a week and it was brutal. With the heat down there I could see this killing thousands more just from sickness. The residual problems are going to be enormous.
yeah residual problems are where it's at. Hurricanes don't kill many people at all but they make life miserable
I'm guessing the NY Metro area is going to see a major influx from Puerto Rico over the next year or two. We may think the economy is getting rougher up here for the lower middle class but it was way ahead of the PR economy before the hurricanes and there will be no comparison in the aftermath.
NY and S Fla will both see a big influx. I have been watching the PR housing market for sometime, keep waiting for a bottom and looked like at least in some areas, like Palmas del Mar/Humacao, that things were slowing down on the drop. I am guessing it will be a long, long time for it to come back now.
S Fla will have jobs available in the rebuild from Irma but it's also in the hurricane zone. It'll be interesting to see how people fleeing the changing weather vote with their feet.
It would seem you fellas are getting caught up in football and weekend activities ,,,,,,,is anyone besides me watching these weather models and spaghetti strings ?????? Um fellas according to the GFS its getting close to game back on especially OBX and Jay,,,,,,just sayin
that was quite the shift west last night and this morning huh? Dont like that. Sits off our coast for 12 hours too before being picked up and 1000 miles away in 2 days. One more shift today and we have a big problem. Our local NWS down here is not buying it...just predicting showers with winds between 20 and 30. Will be watching the shifts. The only saving grace is that they ALL agree that after sitting off the NC coast for a half a day and not moving, it gets picked up and thrown Northeast like a train. Moves more miles in 2 days then it did the previous 2 weeks.
navgem model: https://www.tropicaltidbits.com/ana...uv850&runtime=2017092306&fh=114&xpos=0&ypos=0 Last night GFS: https://www.tropicaltidbits.com/analysis/models/gfs/2017092300/gfs_mslp_pcpn_frzn_us_20.png Just click this for the movement...kinda pulls a Sandy with a left hook at the end: https://postimg.org/image/oo920mpmd/ Today...want to see this or a shift to the east.
Thanks for making a cameo Jay,,,,this aint looking great right now I saw the Navgem earlier and I saw someone say that IT has an east Bias so it should be more East on the Navegem,,,,,instead of being so far west,,,The GFS said west and Euro also said west,,,,this shifted big time on the models last nite. Be safe Jay and the rest and guys keep posting
oh, I'm hanging in..... by a thread. This shit has been pissing me off. Im still trying to fix the house from matthew..Everytime I set aside time to do so, I get derailed...... it's the like the jets but real life My sump pump chose a great weekend to die.....
What is this that the Euro and other models especially some hurricane models are seeing ? The Gulf ? Panhandle ? Time to start talking about and keeping an eye open for this one
Yeah that system down by belize.... could spin into a TS, but I think the wind shear outside of it's current location would limit much further intensification beyond there. Water's hot in the lower gulf, so more rain for N FL - LA
