I'm in Orlando and the latest track seems to be up the East coast of Florida. If it sticks to that track I may only have tropical storm force winds. When it was coming right up the center, heading North seemed to be the prudent thing to do!
Jar, if I remember correctly, you live near Brownsville Texas. Did you get much impact from Harvey ?

Windy
There is a pretty cool website that shows the current and future winds and other weather events. It's using the European model (the most accurate it appears).

Re: Hurricane Irma likely to be far worse than monster Andrew
I was living in Melbourne Beach Florida (8ft above sea level and about 50 miles south of the Space Center) when Andrew hit. It was a beautiful sunny day as all the clouds/moisture were being sucked into Andrew.
Unfortunately, the latest track has the eye of Irma going directly over Orlando and my home.

Re: Hurricane Size Comparison
LOL, I watched the video twice and didn't pay attention to that and I just went through hurricane Irma!
