Hurricane Dorian... meet Florida!
My original blog on August 26 reflected weather forecasters predicting Dorian, then a tropical storm to hit the East Coast of Florida Friday morning as a tropical storm. They were 90% wrong. The only thing they are getting right is the East Coast part.I said Mar-a-Lago... and it looks like I'm more accurate than the forecasters with their radar, satellites and airplane storm trackers.
Currently... Dorian has slowed it's travel, picked up speed and is now a category 3 hurricane packing winds over 110 miles per hour. Expected to hit Florida early Tuesday morning. That means the outer band of tropical winds will be reaching us sometime Monday night!

I think we can guess where most of the FEMA money will be spent this month.
Mar-a-Lago will be getting far more than paper towels thrown at them.
The Don owns a helluva lot more real estate in crazy people's heads than he does in Florida.
Nonetheless, while 100 mph winds are not sufficient to pick up and relocate our porky president to some other country, they would yield some terrific photo opportunities;
Prob'ly that they named it Dorian.
If they'd named it after a Swamp Drainer like Big Bad Don the Everglade would become the Neverglades desert.
OTH - It could be turned into one helluva golf course!
It'd take a couple weeks to shoot a round using a Tesla as a golf cart.
OTOOH -
Donald might be a most(!) appropriate name for this particular weather event.
A low level tropical storm that takes Florida as a Cat 3 hurricane.
Sorta like how Big Bad Don wrecked Hildebeest in Florida -
:
The problem with a slow moving hurricane is hours and hours of heavy winds in the same area and rain literally changes the geography. Sand blown up on the beaches will most likely cover highway A1A. Flooding in low lying areas cannot drain. They will open the floodgates expecting the overflow to drain into the ocean but it's most likely the storm surge will hold the water back. Some areas have pumps to force the water out but that's only a band-aid and may not be effective.
Hell! He could shift the hurricane away from Florida, send it to Texas & have it pile up sand along the Southern border.
VOILA! A Wall!!
That is if he wants to, of course.
Things are looking good for Mar-A-Lago
Put THAT in your crack pipe & smoke it, Dingbat 5 Month Canuck PM (and other crazy people who needn't bear naming )
BTW, Nastics - Dorian's heading up the coast. How'd NJ go in the Election of '16?
Ya. I didn't think so
You might wanna head out now & avoid the rush stocking up on non-perishables, bottled water & batteries.
Just sayin'.
The Big Bad Don is siccing Dorian on YOUR Leftist àss
Yesterday, Florida - Today, Jersey!!!
BWA-HA-HA-HA
What surprises me is Channel 10 (from Miami) has a crew doing live from the Bahamas and they aren't thinking about safety as the water where they are filming from is waist deep.
Thus, thankfully, you probably both lucked out this time.
However, things could change.
Hurricane Dorian has slowed from 185 to 165 maximum sustained winds and down to 1 mile per hour westerly direction. That's not a typo. ONE mile per hour.
This storm is literally sitting over the Bahamas tearing things up!
The Northerly turn doesn't look like it will be until Tuesday and not as tight as the original prediction. This means there is a stronger chance it will affect North Palm Beach up to Daytona Beach.
As long as Dorian remains in warm waters it will continue to be fueled.
