ATL: GONZALO - Post-Tropical - Discussion

[tropicwatch]

Last few minutes live feed sound from the Port has gotten really loud.

Wish they would swing it around toward the harbor.

[CrazyC83]

The eye is starting to cross the islands. Should make official landfall within the next 30 minutes.

Fortunately it appears Gonzalo has started to weaken at a decent rate.

The operator has to be reading here - it's swinging again!

[chaser1]

look how flat its beginning to look on its south side; got to admit, its done quite the job at holding off dry air entriainment into the core prior to now.

[NDG]

The eye is starting to cross the islands. Should make official landfall within the next 30 minutes.

Yeah, winds now only sustained at 38 knots at commissioners point.

[CrazyC83]

Looks like the landfall pressure is around 950mb based on the data.

[chaser1]

i'm a bit impressed and surprised that i'm seeing as much power on, as I am... emergency power lighting perhaps?

[NDG]

Officially at their airport now winds gusting to 95 mph, pressure down to 957 mb.

Thanks for that link! I have been losing the other one all day/night.

Port Bermuda is definitely in the eye now because the roar of the wind is completely gone and I can clearly hear frogs whistling! Freakin' eerie!

[NDG]

Current winds at Commissioners Point 12 knots gusting to 20 knots from the ENE.

More like croaking. They really sound more like birds than frogs...

Apparently the hospital, of which there is only one here, has taken major damage. It's nice and calm outside at the moment cause of the eye, but the wind that this system has given is absolutely beyond words can explain. It's strange cause we lost cell phone service but it's back however its a matter of how long!
