ATL: ISAAC - Post-Tropical - Discussion

[Bocadude85]

Not sure if its just an optical illusion due to the expanding convection or not but Isaas appears he could miss the next NHC point to the right

[Aric Dunn]

its getting its acted together fast. hate to say it but keys/south florida may have a little surprise in the morning.. keep your heads up tonight just incase.

[jinftl]

Was wondering that too...unless the center is actually south of the ball of convection and he isn't in fact organizing since the center is removed from that?

What would the effects of that be?

[Dean4Storms]

Looks like a CDO in the early stages of forming, this might ramp up fairly quickly with the SST's so warm!

[CYCLONE MIKE]

TWC's Greg Forbes is very bullish on tornado potential tomorrow and monday for the Florida peninsula. generally, long-lived tornado watches are issued and reissued during TC landfalls and I suspect this will be no exception. Be alert tomorrow as sometimes these hit and lift before a warning can be disseminated.

So true and something that always gets forgotten being so worried about where the actual storm is going and how strong it will be. Remember around here with Gustav before we lost power had tornado warnings every couple of minutes for our area. They were all radar indicated but they were non-stop.

Recon will certainly be interesting tonight.

Center is on the southern edge of that blob. It is slowly trying to wrap around.

This is link to various radars there.

Neither of Cuba's radar sites work for me. They are all old images.

And hardly load anyway.

Tight fist developing on IR...rapid intensification COULD start soon or at least some very steady intensification...watch out! Here comes ISAAC

[WeatherOrKnot]

All of the local mets (pbc) keep stressing the tornado threats. We live in a mobile home.

[CYCLONE MIKE]

Cuban radar shows the center well.

Look at cyclone's post. COC just off coast. Not in center of fist.

you are in Miami? If so they have opened some shelters

No, southern Palm Beach County.

TS Warning extended up Fl West coast at 11pm

[jlauderdal]

Be interested in reading the NHC Discussion at 11pm and see if the growing ball of convection near the center is in fact the start of Isaac intensifying. We have seen this before with Isaac - he looks to be getting his act together on satellite, but recon often found that not to be the case. we will see..

quickly intensifying system when all the slackers(j/k) are going to sleep in sofla is not a good scenario...too bad recon isnt out there, its odd that we would have this long of a window without recon this close to the usa...oh well, enjoy IR its the only thing we have for now

Agreed!

unless things change I think you should be ok. Just keep listening to all the updates.
