Hurricane Milton

[GenociderSyo]

Milton has the potential for the eye of the storm to pass directly over basically every Disney property. Forecast tracks still have it passing directly over Tampa and then making a beeline for Orlando, so we'll see how that turns out.

Looks like they are closing the parks for Wednesday. People have had their park reservations removed and no new ones can be made that day.

Is that good? Is lower number gooder?

Lower number badder. The lower the barometric pressure at the eye, the stronger the storm.

Lower pressure in the hurricane means it's stronger.

Posted an hour ago, some predications already out of date:

 

[Disaffected Coyote]

To put in perspective what this monster is doing, Wilma was the strongest storm on record by pressure. 882 mb 185mph sustained wind.

Wilma did this very rapidly.

Oh I'm well aware, my friend is as well, their family has just somehow decided that they're built different and will be fine somehow. It's actual insanity.

I'm sorry for your friend but frankly if their family doesn't leave now, they won't survive and nobody will be able to confirm it for days.

 

[#FF0000]

Surface winds in the NW Eyewall of 146 kt, or just under 170 mph.
Minimum surface pressure of 912 mb according to another dropsonde.

The new GFS model has come out, it has it making landfall just North of Tampa. Really bad if that happens.

 

[#FF0000]

Winds of 175 mph and pressure of 911 mb according to NHC. This is ridiculous.

 

[dvorak]

Air Force recon still at it and has found 914mbs at the centre.

Can they shoot it with really big missile

They CAN, but it’d help about as much as spitting at it or calling it a mean name.

You were great for baklava

They should nuke the center of it, worst case scenario it just makes a radioactive hurricane.

Kind of a minor detail, but the House of Mouse is in the dead center of the current forecast cone:

Despite being built in the center of Florida, I don't think the Disney parks have ever had a direct hit from a hurricane, especially not one this powerful. It'll be interesting to see what happens there. I hope some soytuber makes a "STAYING AT DISNEY DURING A HURRICANE!!! (CRAZY)" video.

Our boy Milton is a monster



Hoping it drifts closer to the Yucatan and weakens there.

If I need to be in Florida in about 4 weeks how badly will my plans be fucked? (Daytona)

Daytona should be fine then, the answer is different it's anything on the West or Southern coasts.

Thank God they’re keeping it that way and are sending the mass migration of spooks to fancier Victorian houses on the East Coast run by the spiritual elite
