Updated 11PM - 70 MPH Pulling Together in the GOM - Storm Chasers On the Road... Multiple Storms of a Different Kind. Zeta in the Yucatan On It's Way to Gulfport Area... Ice in OKC What Next?


Late night update. 

Zeta is a large, beautiful storm in the middle of the Gulf of Mexico headed towards landfall in Louisiana and Mississippi. Weather far to the right of the center could impact a wide area with strong squally storms and possible deadly tornadoes so everyone needs to pay attention to any changes in where the weather is going within the large area filled with strong weather associated with the storm. A hurricane is more than just the eye and currently the center is closing up and trying to intensify. NHC forecast discussion shows a solid hurricane at landfall, a fast moving storm means a hard slap of wind and wicked weather but flooding should not be a problem as it will be gone as fast as it showed up if the models all verify and there is tremendous agreement on this but that still means power outages, trees down and where there are large heavy wooded trees it could mean a large tree branch or stray pine crashes down on your home so keep that in mind.


Landfall still where we were looking this morning and the cone is fairly narrow due to model agrement. The system that this is hooking up with has left a legacy of misery and power ourages as ice, sleet and snow as left quite a footprint and power crews are out now trying to restore power and now Zeta takes aim on another area that has hurricane fatique and one wonders if New Orleans luck will run out avoiding severe damage this year.  Then after landfall this system moves rapidly up into the heart of the country.


Zeta moves fast with the front across the country.
That's a lot of big cities in it's fast track.


Watches and warnings are everywhere.
Far inland, due to the fast foward speed.
Strong winds will bring down trees...
...far from the coastline.
In Texas and Oklahoma ...Icy.
Red is for Zeta...


NHC goes with 85 MPH at landfall.
As of tonight at 11 PM.

I'll be online tomorrow all day.
Watching Zeta's every move...
...and that front diving down.
Then moving fast like in a sports car!

Stay tuned...
... NHC worried on inland impacts in Georgia.

Sweet Tropical Dreams.

Clash of weather today.
Reed has to get out of OKC....
...to get to Zeta in Gulfport.


Meanwhile Josh is traveling too.
Trying to get "home"
Because he needed to hit both landfalls.



October is that kind of month.
You can get anything at the All You Can Eat Buffet!


And now for our photo of Zeta


Really a kind of beautiful October storm.
As most October storms are odd...
This is really almost November.

More on that November storm later today.
I have electricians at my house again......
...refixing something.

I'll update later today.

What next?

Ice?
Hurricanes?
No not Ice Hurricanes.
That's like a bad disaster movie.

Be back later.
