I know. It came out of nowhere. Two gust fronts merged literally as they reached the Mississippi river and 64 corridor in far NW st Clair county. Within minutes this huge storm blew up and radar echo tops jumped 20-25K feet in 10 mins. So there was definitely some major lift for a little bit. Would love to see that radar archive. Didn't catch it quick enough on rs

What's the meta on a good radar site these days that's available on normal web browsers (not on a phone)? Weatherunderground is always down and while the NWS did finally make a 'light' version of their radar it's not like the old one I remember.

Models are suggesting Fiona could deepen to around 940mb at landfall in Nova Scotia after weakening some before the transition to extra/sub-tropical structure.

Storm scale models (HWRF, HMON, HAFS, COAMPS) have Fiona going sub-930 just prior to landfall. I believe the record for a Canadian landfall is 948 mb by Ginny 1963.

ECMWF taking Fiona down to 920mb during the extratropical transition prior to landfall.

Yikes They're all yikes worthy, but HWRF is a mega yikes. I plugged this wind field into the IKE calculator and got 180 TJ which tops Sandy's 140 TJ.

Its September 22nd and the dew point is 43. You could tell me that my dog is uglier than my mom and it wouldn't ruin my mood right now.

I may be incorrect- but I believe Fiona is phasing with the ex typhoon which hit Alaska

Good morning to the Corner! This is the second time this year I have had to ask “what is happening in my back yard”. I am supposed to board a flight to Fort Myers on Thursday, 9/29 for my brother’s wedding, which is scheduled for 10/1 (likely to be postponed to 10/3). Looking at the models and formation of Tropical Depression Nine, I have to make a decision on travel plans. It seems the probability of a “storm” is high, but very uncertain at this time. I am leaning towards canceling my plans. Perhaps I should suggest a “change in venue”? The Midwest is nice this time of year. 😉. Any thoughts?

00z euro showing potential for Florida to take a hit followed by another major landfall around Virginia.
Trends are definitely honing in on Florida.

Hurricane models are a bit further west than the gfs/euro/gem.
Would probably allow more time for strengthening and miss most land prior to entering the GOM.
HWRF and HMON both show a high end CAT 3 or low end CAT 4 heading towards the mainland.

Thanks to everyone for their expertise! I know there is a long way to go and things can and will change as to an exact tract, but I will likely err to the side of caution. Safety is my main concern. With that said, as a weather geek, the prospect of experiencing something like this naws at my wild side 😜. You guys rock!

does the newest potential placement of the hurricane = temps not warming up quite as much here in the midwest a week or so from now? or nah? just judging it based on some maps this morning on temp & dew point forecasts.

If I’m looking at some of these models right some 40s for lows are popping up.

Wow! Yeah at home would have been better. The Dodger fans are loving every bit of though. Pujols is legit helping the Cards win games in the second half of the season. Way more productive than I was expecting.

I have to be honest. I didn't think he'd make it to 700 when the season started.

He hit 700 the next at bat afterwards! Did anyone see it on Apple TV?
