Hi CARIIS! You might be thinking of Chris Landsea et al, which suggests that the worst of the damaged areas (Homestead, Cutler Ridge and parts of my neighborhood - Kendall) may have experienced wind gusts of 155 - 201 mph, peak gusts at just over 189 mph, and sustained winds of just over 172 mph:

All I know is that I've never seen such horrific damage as what happened that night. I hope Florida will benefit by the changes in building codes and the introduction of newer hurricane-resistant products since then when Irma hits.

Stay safe lady!

Hi Miss M!

I cant recall if that was him ,. I just remember being fascinated by the projectiles speeds it was a bit like aircraft accident investigation.

Here is info on that energy thing I was referring to earlier.

Accumulated cyclone energy (ACE) is a measure used by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) to express the activity of individual tropical cyclones and entire tropical cyclone seasons, particularly the North Atlantic hurricane season.

Hernando County Shelters:

A mandatory evacuation order for coastal zones A and B, and mobile homes countywide.

Shelters will open at 2 p.m. today for residents in these zones. Go to http://hernandocounty.us/em/documents/maps/8-evacuation-zones-and-routes/file to find the location of your zone.

Here are a list of available shelters:

* Challenger K-8 School of Sciences and Mathematics
13400 Elgin Blvd., Spring Hill, FL 34609,
Designated special needs shelter

There are unconfirmed predictions that up to 3 to 6 feet of storm surge could be expected along Hernando County coastline on Sunday and Monday.

During Hurricane Hermine, Hernando only saw a maximum of 5’ of surge. In addition to the expected storm surge, weather experts say this area could experience hurricane force winds, between 80 and 90 mph.

Tips for shelter residents

Greetings from Puerto Rico! Hugo reached all the way up there? wow. Hugo is still remembered here in Puerto Rico as one of the most destructive hurricanes even though it did not hit half of the country.

About Irma, we're ok. We almost got hit by the eye, but the last hour it went up in latitude.

This shows water temp now in Key West at 89.1 F, with Naples at 86.4 F.

By comparison, Charleston is 80.6F now, a 9 degree difference......wow.

Fuel for the fire, when she goes across to Key West.

Super to hear from you and glad it moved. Yep, Hugo was a cat5 approaching Charleston but weakened at landfall to a cat4. Extremely destructive... Glad you are ok.

new run out cat 5 MSNBC

http://streamfare.com/msnbc.html

actually a 5 mph increase

Miami out of cone Lauderdale out W palm beach out

Keys likely cat 4 landfall



Tampa more in deal now

East coast Fl still gonna have storm surge issues rotation is in the the 9 -3 (clock) zone -- called the dirty part of the storm


same would be true here Orlando but the futher south she actual landfalls things change the quicker ( southern) the eye gets on land later on the better

the number of cranes in miami are about 20 30

they are not going to teather them and let them fly around in the air - whatever the speed is at ground level it increases tons as it goes up like 5th floor 10the floor 20 floor- so lets visualize giant cranes become a projectile if this choice not to teather them is not a good idea

Visually to me it seems like one of the rides at a fair that swing out freaking you joyously out

me no expert - guess there is some merit to to it but just visually it seems if one is gonna get broken off as oppossed to flung out .....

what do I know

I vividly remember one in Sandy dangling down
