Keep writing, you may be recording a significant event in atmospheric science. My guess is yuu will win the Pulitzer Prize by the time you sign off.

I feel like I may be involuntarily logged off before receiving the Pulitzer, but thank you.

I found your blog post extremely valuable. Thank you so much for doing this. I do have a question that maybe you can answer in one of your posts. Is it possible that as a hurricane comes into Apalachee Bay, which is very rare anyway, because of the way it is spinning it interacts with the land and it gets spun to the east. This has happened three times and I'm wondering if there's anything to it. Also Michael was coming on the other side of Apalachicola and got spun a little bit to the west. Is there any truth to any of this that the hurricanes Spin is interacting with the land especially the unusual jetting out of Apalachee Bay because of unusual land formation? It's wonderful to wake up and my body and home is intact! 🌈🐬💃🏽

Most superb coverage there is. Thank you ever so much for this incredible effort. Although I live over on the east coast (Stuart), I follow every storm intensely (the weather geek in me!). I *greatly* appreciate all that you do. I learn sooo much from your reports. Now go get some rest, you poor man. Hope your wife is doing well.

Tracking slightly east of Tallahassee? Enough to be helpful to the city?

Here in Englewood, wind has been blowing hard for the past 2 hours. A rain band just blew through, but not much to it. There is thunder in the area.

They were talking about possible tornadoes down you way but it is clearing out now at almost 7 PM.

Thank you for the continued updates. Hopefully we'll be able to maintain electricity and WiFi throughout. I do like the updated GFS tracks trending east.
