How strong will the winds be...

#1 Postby Josephine96 » Sun Nov 02, 2003 8:56 am

Just out of curiosity.. How strong may the winds be in this "Odette" wanna be.

I'm gonna say if she develops into a TS or STS she'll have winds of around 45-50 mph. It could get wet and kinda breezy around here..

Opinions welcomed..

I would say Miami could very well see 20 mph winds.

You probably won't get over about 15 mph sustained there. That's it. Inland winds will be about half of what will be experienced on the beach to your east. You may hardly know it passes theat far north, except that it'll be a little cloudier and windier than normal tonight, with a few passing showers.

John,

Are you in Kissimmee/St. Cloud or Miami? And I WAS talking about what you will see there in Kissimmee/St. Cloud. That was my forecast for tonight as it passes. It's not going to change in strength before passing Florida. Think you could handle 15 mph winds in Kissimmee/St. Cloud?

Sorry about the Miami location confusion wxman57. I was listing that as a closest approach to Josephine96.

Um no I am not testy. If you will do a search of all my posts you will see that I put the users name in bold print most of the time. You might call it my posting style. I like to draw attention to users that are mentioned in the thread. Very helpful if you are responding to many users in one post.

These wind speeds could be lower, considering. Winds 15 to 20 mph are pretty good, especially at night across Florida.

Even if a member uses bold sometimes for member names sometimes and not all the time, it is like 980 said, a style of the poster. :)

Using bold, underline and italics are great features.
