Loading ...CRUNCH TIME ! now, (or soon) we get to see the widely predicted northerly turn from so many computer models.
a) if the turn is early (it wasn’t) or sharper than forecast, the florida east coast gets a dose of wet hell.
b) if it happens as forecast, the peninsula takes a hit. irma, losing force as she travels north over land, crosses into georgia as a tropical storm.
or…
c) the turn is a little (or a lot) later and/or not as sharp as projected. …irma travels north over the open gulf. …NOT losing strength… to make landfall somewhere on the gulf coast.
or…
d) other, some combination of the above
i’m going to be watching closely to see how this turn shakes out. i imagine i’m not the only one.
