Comparison of near-landfall strength and location between GFS and Euro...

GFS is 12 hours slower than Euro. Euro is stronger at near-landfall. Near-landfall location isn't too far off. 

GFS drops more precip by far. 

Even though GFS is weaker, I'd say that is the more deadly and possibly costly scenario. Storm surge causes nearly half of hurricane-related deaths (49%), and GFS would provide more time to whip up some storm surge. Also, adding more rain on top of that only exacerbates the situation because flooding makes up for 27% of hurricane deaths.

Would re-make the shorelines of Captiva and Sanibel islands on that trajectory…

Not too soon?

Perhaps.. thinking that we knock it down now a little bit, beat up the core with an ERC, then have the shear come in and keep it from recovering. 

Yeah, I guess that's wishcasting.

We don’t want the eyewall replacement cycle to form too soon and complete that would make this wind field even larger i think we would ideally want it to start tonight sometime so it doesn’t finish 

the concentric looking eyewalls on radar make me think Ian is going to cycle pretty quickly

Confirmed tornado west of Miami. Looking at the actual tornado here since the beam reaches only 500 feet above ground once it reaches the storm.

There was a debris signature for at least 12 minutes... unlikely the tornado was on the ground the entire time, it's just that the debris stuck around for that long.

Think you could be on to something here. Or it could be subomtimally timed and go the other way.

here you can see the erc probability spiking within the last two hours 

Notice did how the vmax to the right dips and the raises again above where it is now. 
 

makes me wonder if this will pull off a quick erc and expand the max wind field and make this all the much worse

A full Erc normally take about 8-12 hours (roughly) or so then the hurricane itself goes through an expansion process to boot so I think i feel like it’s going to be real hard to go through a complete erc and wind field expansion before landfall 

meteorology is crazy so who knows but this is definitely one to watch

Ian’s going to spawn lots of these I assume?

I'm worried about central fl/Orlando. They used to have a ride/exhibit at Universal studios for the movie twister. I think life might imitate art.

New tornado watch coming. Imagine that.

   Mesoscale Discussion 1835
   NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK
   0327 PM CDT Tue Sep 27 2022

   Areas affected...Southern FL and the FL Keys

   Concerning...Severe potential...Watch needed soon 

   Valid 272027Z - 272100Z

   Probability of Watch Issuance...95 percent

   SUMMARY...A new Tornado Watch will be issued for South FL and the FL
   Keys by 21Z.

   DISCUSSION...The supercell tornado risk will continue across
   southern FL and the Keys on the northeastern side of Hurricane Ian,
   and gradually spread northward through this afternoon into the
   overnight hours. Therefore, a new Tornado Watch will be issued by
   21Z.
