...looking at the latest 1:15 IR satelite loops.

He is WHACK horrific looking!

Some people are really going to take a whooping, upon landfall.

Look at the CDO....it's an absolute PERFECT circle! Amazing!

That's a Cat 5 in the making if I ever saw one.

I wonder what is happening down there...
I would have thought they would have sufficient forces to counter looting, etc.

Noticed that -- a perfect storm.

Newbie here, so honest question. Anyone notice how close the UKMET track is to Charley? I know all the other variables are different four weeks later, but have two storms taken the same track before?

Hyperstorm · #1349 Postby **Hyperstorm** » Wed Sep 08, 2004 8:40 pm

WOW, look at that symmetrical CDO...

Pressure should be approaching the 920s as I type...

You and I think exactly alike, check out the post I just submitted at the same time!

This is nothing short of petrifying.

OOOOOPPPSSS wrong image......look at the latest image. Please excuse my mistake!

It certainly sounds like a really bad situation.

ColinD · #1353 Postby **ColinD** » Wed Sep 08, 2004 8:40 pm

I guess we're all pretty blown away right now.

I completely agree...what are your thoughts on the track wxman57?

That was said in the latest Ivan update. :eek:

South Tampa · #1356 Postby **South Tampa** » Wed Sep 08, 2004 8:42 pm

Remove Georges 1998 from the data. He was a CAT 4 in the Eastern Carribean. Once he entered the GOM he never got above CAT 2 so
doesn't meet my criteria.

Glad to hear that.... If TWC said it, we should expect pressure to rise to 1000MB tomorrow.... (unless it was Stephanie Abrams - I'll believe anything she says)...

#1358 Postby **dhweather** » Wed Sep 08, 2004 8:42 pm

I think there's a little shear just West of Ivan, but
that has not really stopped him to date.

We may have a cat 5 right now! :eek:

Intensity remains shaky because I need to figure out how much time it will have over land first. I wasn't ready to make a landfall prediction tonight--I was thinking more of tomorrow, but I guess this track somewhat forces me to make one, bringing the center a few miles west of Sarasota in 120 hours. But note that the 120 hour point is somewhat arbitrary and a compromise, so I'm not actually expecting the storm to hit this point yet.

there is nothing perfect about the death and destruction on the way

Ivan is about as symmetrical as a storm can be....
