It's up to 120mph now. Going to make a run at cat 4 which is 130. It needs to shift just east to put Tampa on the westside of the center. A track where Tampa is just east would be a storm surge disaster.

They have the same problem as in 2004. Even if it misses Tampa it's still gonna go through Mobile home Park Heaven.

11AM report shows it having moved well east of yesterday - but still shows it making a bee-line up the inland side of the coast toward my neck of the woods in SE GA. My experience and the front coming thru makes me thing it will keep moving east then shoot up the coast but over over water. What do you think?

The current one puts Ft. Myers, Cape Coral, Sanibel and the other islands, Pt. Charlotte, Punta Gorda, etc in THEIR storm surge disaster zone.

Are some concerns or moves further east. The cold front that is giving us our great weather is interacting with Ian. As of the last update wind and pressure held constant, but don't be surprised if it ends up a 4. Saw one met/chaser saying don't take 5 off the table but I have my doubts.
I'm cranky now. Had I gone and chased Ian I would have landed a Canadian national news interview. They interviewed me a few years ago when I was down for Sally and evidently kept my name on file. Dammit.

It looks like it might be going through an eye wall replacement cycle. If so, that could explain it not getting stronger last couple of hours. But once it completes it then it should start intensifying again.

Should I be concerned about my Orange Beach plans this weekend?

Drove from the MS Gulf Coast to Jackson today. I must have passed at least 300 electric utility trucks headed south.

Latest update and pressure dropped 5mb in the last hour. Eye wall replacement cycle looks almost complete. I expect to see the winds increasing in the next 1-2 hours.

I saw a bunch headed south on I-65 through Tennessee Sunday.

Those of us who live in the Tampa Bay Area appreciate prayers. Also I personally appreciate all the great weather information provided by members of this group. You are appreciated even in Tampa.

Yeah. Just sitting here in hotel room in NOLA watching weather channel. It doesn't look good.

It's still having trouble closing the eye wall back off. It's very close but the eye is much larger than before. When the eye starts getting very compact with a lot of convection in the eye wall that's a good sign it's intensifying. Good news is the longer it takes to do this the less time it has to strengthen.
