>> OUR WEATHER AUTHORITY TEAM IS IN QUESTION. THE 11:00 A.M. ADVISORY.
WHAT DOES IT TELL YOU?
>> SOMETHING INTEREST.
WE TALKED ABOUT THIS AS THE 10
A.M. ADVISORY.
THE WINDS HAVE GONE DOWN TO 155
MILES PER HOUR.
THE PRESSURE HAS RISEN.
THAT’S THE SIGN OF THE SYSTEM
SLIGHTLY WEAKENING.
BUT IT IS A MAJOR HURRICANE,
CATEGORY 4.
CAUSING CATASTROPHIC DAMAGE FOR
PARTS OF THE NORTHWESTERN HALF
THE BAHAMAS.
UNFORTUNATELY, IT IS NOT TAKING
THE NORTH TURN ACCORDING TO THE
NATIONAL HURRICANE CENTER.
IT IS MOVING WEST STILL AT 1
MILES PER HOUR.
>> THE OUTER BANDS OF THE SYSTEM
VERY STRONG.
DEVASTATING.
AND UNFORTUNATELY IS GOING TO
CONTINUE TO BRING MORE RAIN,
MORE STORM SURGE.
MORE DEVASTATING CONDITIONS FOR
THE NORTHWESTERN HALF OF THE
BAHAMAS.
AND THE LENGTH OF THE SYSTEMS.
I WANT YOU TO UNDERSTAND HOW
LARGE THE SYSTEM IS FROM THE
WEST TO THE EAST.
IT IS 240 MILES.
THE LENGTH OF IT.
WHEN YOU THINK OF IT CREEPING UP
THE COAST IN THE CENTRAL
PORTIONS OF OUR STATES AND INTO
NORTHERN FLORIDA.
WE WILL CONTINUE TO SEAT BANDS
WRAPPING AROUND THAT EYE WALL.
THE STRONGEST PART OF THE
HURRICANE.
THE DAMAGES WINDS WILL CONTINUE
TO PUSH TOWARD THE NORTHWEST.
IT IS LOCATED OVER 110 MILES
EAST OF PALM BEACH FLORIDA BUT
TROPICAL STORM FORCE WINDS
EXTEND OUT FROM THE CENTER 140
MILES.
THAT’S WHY WE ARE CONTINUING TO
SEE THE POSSIBILITY OF TROPICAL
STORM FORCE WINDS FOR FORT
LAUDERDALE.
STRONGER WINDS FOR WEST PALM
BEACH.
AND THE CLOSER APPROACH WILL BE
LATER TODAY INTO THE EVENING.
WE ARE WAITING FOR THE NORTH
DIRECTION TO TAKE PLACE.
AS IT DOES THAT’S WHERE WE WILL
SEE THE MOST IMPRESSIVE IMPACTS
FOR PARTS OF THE CENTRAL
PORTIONS OF THIS STATE STAYING
NORTH OF US.
THE TROPICAL STORM WATCH IS IN
EFFECT.
A HURRICANE WATCH IN EFFECT AND
TROPICAL STORM WARNING FOR WEST
PALM BEACH.
FOR FORT LAUDERDALE ADVISORIES
HAVE NOT CHANGED.
WE JUST GOT THAT IN.
IT LOOKS AS THOUGH A TROPICAL
STORM WATCH IS EXPECTED FOR
TROPICAL STORM FORCE WINDS FOR
FORT LAUDERDALE.
HERE IS THE NEW FORECAST CONE.
IT HAS IT MOVING FROM THE WEST
NORTHWEST HUGGING OUR COASTLINE
FROM CENTRAL FLORIDA TO NORTHERN
FLORIDA.
BECOMING A CATEGORY THREE OFF
THE COAST OF DAYTONA BEACH AND
POSSIBLY MAKING THAT NORTHEAST
TURN OFF THE COAST OF THE
SOUTHEASTERN UNITED STATES.
THE MODELS ARE THINGS WE
COMPLETELY WATCH IN THESE
SCENARIOS BECAUSE WE HAVE THE
GFS MODEL AND EUROPEAN MODEL AND
THEY ARE KEEPING THAT SYSTEM
CLOSE TO THE COAST OF FLORIDA.
FOR US HERE IN SOUTH FLORIDA.
WHAT DOES IT MEAN FOR YOUR LOCAL
IMPACT AS SOON AS SOUTH FLORIDA
WE WILL DEAL WITH THE
POSSIBILITY OF TROPICAL STORM
FORCE WINDS IN FORT LAUDERDALE.
SOUTH OF THAT AREA, MIAMI AND
MIAMI SHORES, MIAMI SPRINGS,
SENDING ME THE EMAILS IN
HOMESTEAD IT LOOKS LIKE YOU WILL
DEAL WITH THE POSSIBILITY OF
STORM FORCE GUSTS EMBEDDED IN
THE THUNDERSTORM ACTIVITY
PUSHING AROUND THE CENTER OF
HURRICANE DORIAN GOING INTO THE
LATER PART OF OUR DAY AND INTO
THIS EVENING.
TROPICAL STORM FORCE WINDS BEGIN
AT 39 MILES PER HOUR AND REACH
UP TO 73 MILES PER HOUR.
ROOF DAMAGE AND TREE DAMAGE
POSSIBLE.
NOW THE EFFECT OF THIS WILL
START LATER THIS AFTERNOON.
ESPECIALLY THE MOST STRONG STRON
WILL BE IN BROWARD.
THAT WILL CONTINUE GOING INTO
TUESDAY MORNING AND TUESDAY
AFTERNOON.
THE TIMING FOR MIAMI-DADE, YOU
COULD SEE WINDS OF 20-30 MILES
PER HOUR.
MUCH STRONGER BY THIS AFTERNOON
GOING INTO BROWARD.
BUT THIS MORNING WE ARE SEEING
SOME GUSTS THAT ARE STAYING IN
THE 20’S AND PALM BEACH FELT
WITH THIS ACTIVITY.
WE WILL HAVE A LOT MORE OF THIS
COMING UP BECAUSE I NEED TO GO
TO THE RADAR AND SHOW YOU WHAT
THE WINDS ARE RIGHT NOW BUT I
WANT TO TURN IT OVER TO OUR
METEOROLOGIST.
>> YES JUST GOT THIS SO I’M
GOING THROUGH WHAT THE NATIONAL
HURRICANE CENTER IS YOUING OUT
AND THERE’S NO CHANGES IN THE
WATCHES OR WARNINGS.
THAT WOULD BE BROWARD UNDER THE
TROPICAL STORM WATCH.
IT LOOKS LIKE, WE HAVE COURSE
HAVE A POWERFUL HURRICANE.
ALL MORNING LONG WE’VE BEEN
TALKING ABOUT HOW THE STORM
ISN’T LOOKING QUITE AS WELL
STRUCTURED AS IT ONCE WAS.
IT IS 155, ALMOST CAP 5
HURRICANE BUT AT CAT 4.
STILL CRAWLING AT 1 MILES PER
HOUR.
AND WHAT TYPICALLY HAPPENS UNDER
THIS SCENARIO IS WHEN YOU SEE
THE STORM, THESE CYCLES, THEY
EXPAND.
THEY BECOME LARGER.
THE WINDS DROP DOWN A LITTLE BIT
AND THEY PICK RIGHT BACK UP AS A
SECONDARY EYE WALL CAN CLOSE
BACK IN.
YOU WILL SEE THAT.
THAT’S THE OLD ONE.
WATCH WHAT HAPPENS AS WE PUT IT
INTO MOTION.
NOW THERE’S A BIGGER ONE.
TWICE AS BIG AS THE OLD ONE.
A MASSIVE EYE WALL AND GOING
OVER FREEPORT AND BACK TOWARDS
THE EASTSIDE OF GRAND BAHAMA
ISLAND AND STILL CRAWLING
EARLIER IT DID MAKE A LITTLE JOG
NORTHWARD.
NOW IT LOOKS LIKE IT WILL RESUME
THE WESTWARD TRACK.
IT HAS BEEN AN EYE WALL OVER
PORTIONS OVER SOME OF THE THESE
ISLANDS OF GRAND BAHAMA ISLAND
FOR HOURS AND HOURS.
IT IS AN UNBELIEVABLE MAULING
THAT GRAND BAHAMA HAS TAKEN
TODAY.
THE STRONGEST PART OF IT, THE
SOUTHERN SECTION, TREMENDOUS
STORM SURGE.
PULL THE VIEW OUT AND IT’S 120
MILES OFF.
THIS IS THE FUTURE RADAR AND YOU
CAN SEE IT LASH US WITH SOME OF
THE THESE BANDS BUT THESE ARE
FRINGE EFFECTS FOR SOUTH
FLORIDA.
IT IS CLOSER THAN WE WOULD LIKE
BUT IT IS NOT OUR STORM IN SOUTH
FLORIDA.
THEY HAVE TO BE ON GUARD TO THE
NORTH AS IT IS A DANGEROUS STORM
FOR POINTS NORTH.
FRIENDS AND FAMILY UP ALONG THE
SPACE COAST.
THIS COULD BE CAT 4 STRENGTHS.
BY TUESDAY MORNING IT TAKES THE
NORTHWARD TURN AND BY WEDNESDAY
UP HERE NORTH OF ORLANDO, NORTH
OF MELBOURNE AND THIS IS STILL A
VERY DANGEROUS AREA.
IT IS CLOSE.
IF IT DOZEN MAKE LANDFALL IT
WILL BE CLOSE AND THEY WILL GET
MASSIVE IMPACTS AND GEORGIA,
SOUTH CAROLINA, NORTH CAROLINA,
WEAKENING, BUT A MASSIVE STORM
THURSDAY AND FRIDAY.
YOU WILL WATCH IT NORTHEAST
GETTING GRAZED BY THAT CONE AS
WELL.
THAT’S THE LATEST WITH THE 11:00
A.M. ADVISORY.
CATEGORY 4 STILL VERY DANGEROUS
AND VERY SLOW MOVING AND IT WILL
BE A PROCESS BEFORE IT GOES
NORTHWARD.
WE WILL SHOOT IT OVER TO BREAK.
BE BACK HERE IN A COUPLE OF
MINUTES.
