I like my chances.

Hanna is either going to be the most intense looking TS ever or she'll be a hurricane here shortly.

Finally getting something wrapping around the NW of the center of circulation. Another day and Hanna could/would be Harvey vs Rockport impacts.

...NOAA HURRICANE HUNTERS INDICATE THAT HANNA IS STRENGTHENING... ...EXPECTED TO MAKE LANDFALL AS A HURRICANE TOMORROW IN SOUTHERN TEXAS...

Those are some really cold cloud tops almost wrapped all the way around the circulation for a tropical storm. Hell even a Cat 1 hurricane.

You know Hanna looks legit when The Boat makes a comment like this. As far as I can tell, this is the only named storm of the season he's acknowledged as such.

Once that west side fully closes off, giddy up.

Yeah nothing grinds my gears more than what I call wasted name storms. When they call something a tropical storm when it’s out in the Atlantic and heading out to sea by the time they name it. Or like that 12 hour storm in South Carolina. We’ve had a lot of names so far but it’s like they’ve been stuffing the ballot box so far. Hurricane Hanna is finally something to pay attention to.

Record # of names for the date.
ACE is average for the date.

As I said earlier in the thread, 2020 is slightly higher than middle of the road with respect to total cyclone energy, yet it's the earlier we've ever had a G storm, much less an H.

In 2005 we had 3 hurricanes by this point including a cat 4 and 5. Let’s see if August cranks up the intensity.

The outflow on this thing is excellent for the Atlantic basin.

It’s gonna be a Cat 2 at landfall, only good thing about the situation is there’s not much between Corpis and Brownsville..........

Pretty sure the hurricane is the least of your worries.

This anemometer is about 390 feet above the surface, but winds are really ramping up to nearly hurricane force gusts. It is about 40 miles NNE of the center right now.

An anemometer is a device that measures wind speed and pressure. You see meteorologists holding the little yellow ones on TV all the time. This one Happens to be 390 feet in the air on top of an oil rig (designated KEMK) in the gulf. Hannah passed and rig was 40 miles NNE of the eye of Hannah. It is measuring near hurricane sustained winds in knots (left side) and designated by the blue line on the graph. This one does not have the air pressure line on it, but typically both green and blue lines are on the same graph, so you can easily see a correlation between the wind speed and air pressure at the same point in time. The red line here shows the wind gusts.
1 knot = about 1.15mph
So it’s showing 56 knots or roughly 64mph winds 40 miles from the eye when it passed the rig
