"Monstrous" Hurricane Michael eyeing Florida's Gulf Coast

 

Holy crap: Hurricane Michael Intensifies to Category 2; May Be Florida Panhandle's Strongest Landfall in 13 Years Wednesday

 

It is expected that Hurricane Michael will make landfall as a Category 3, making landfall near Panama City Beach on Wednesday afternoon/evening.

Hurricane Michael has strengthened to Category 2 intensity, and is forecast to strike the Florida Panhandle at least as strong as a Category 3 with dangerous storm surge flooding, destructive winds and flooding rainfall. Michael will also bring heavy rain and strong winds to other parts of the southeastern United States after it moves inland.

Yes, the Carolinas will get some rain from Hurricane Michael.

Even Atlanta is in the "possible" power outages area from Hurricane Michael.

 

Unprecidented
Life-Threatening
Catastrophic
Category 4 Hurricane

Hurricane Michael has increased strength. This is going to be terrible. If you know anyone in the path of this storm, please contact them and urge them to leave the area immediately.

As the National Weather Service in Tallahassee emphasized early Wednesday, this morning is the last chance to get to a safe place in the Florida Panhandle and Big Bend hurricane and storm surge warned areas.

@NWSTallahassee
If you live along the coast and were told to evacuate...this is YOUR LAST CHANCE. Hurricane Michael is an unprecedented event and cannot be compared to any of our previous events. Do not risk your life, leave NOW if you were told to do so.

We are expecting landfall near PCB/Mexico beach area in the NOON to early early afternoon time frame.

There are only precious few hours left to get out, if you're in an area that has been ordered to evacuate. Follow the advice of local officials if you are ordered to evacuate, particularly if you live in a storm-surge-prone location.Hurricane Michael Just Hours Away From a Catastrophic, Unprecedented Florida Panhandle, Big Bend Category 4 Landfall | The Weather Channel

Michael will produce potentially catastrophic and unprecedented wind damage where the core of the hurricane moves onshore. If you are to the coast please begin to seek shelter if you have not done so already.


@BayCountyEM
ALERT BAY: Conditions are rapidly deteriorating. Winds are now 140 miles per hour for Hurricane Michael. Zones A, B, and C, persons in mobile homes and low-lying areas, you have ONE HOUR to get to Rutherford High School to seek shelter.

 

There’s nothing more dangerous than a Hurricane that strengthens just before landfall

 

Now, there is reason to believe that Hurricane Michael may strengthen even more before landfall.

The Hurricane Hunters have finally found a closed eyewall of #Michael, which may help the storm strengthen further before landfall this afternoon.


Hurricane Tracker App‏ @hurrtrackerapp 15m15 minutes ago
The minimum central pressure of #Michael is now down to 936 mb, according to data from the Hurricane Hunters. This storm is still strengthening.

 

Winds are up to 145 mph. now.

The National Weather Service in Tallahassee says if you haven't left the coast yet it's too late. It's time to hunker down.

 

I just heard on the news the red algae bloom is being pushed up the coast because of the storm.

 

Prayers going out to anyone who is in this storm’s path. So over hurricane season already! :/

 

NWS Tallahassee has said it's just about too late to head to shelters. It's time to shelter in place.

Landfall is expected late this morning to early afternoon.

this is for aviation, but a nice radar and it dont lag, click yes and you can turn off all the overviews and view normal radar if you like

 

Shamona! Heeheeee!

 

The Weather Channel is running away from Hurricane Michael!

@mikebettes
My crew here in Apalachicola has decided to leave. We feel confident in the building we’re staying in is strong but not confident that US 98 will be in tact and an escape route for us after the hurricane. Better safe than sorry.

 

The City Manager of Panama City Beach, FL says that upwards of 25,000 people have decided to remain on what is essentially a barrier island.

 

All the bridges are closed. If someone is in a beach town, they are now stranded there.
