07/10/05 TALK: Major Hurricane Emily

[MClarkson]

based on the last 2 aircraft recon fixes i calculate a movement of about 295 at 6 knots.

...over the last ~2.5 hours.

 

[MClarkson]

from the plane:

"STADIUM EFFECT VISIBLE IN MOONLIGHT"

oh man I wish I was there.

I doubt they can get pictures to come out in mere moonlight but we can always hope.

 

[Owen Shieh]

Wow, I can only imagine. It's mind boggling with all the wobbles from Emily. WNW is the good forecast for now, but any little jumps and things could easily change. Still think TX will be fine for now.

I've been watching it on radar via GR Level 3 over the past hour and a half and it appears to be moving south. :?

 

[Dave Kaplow]

Emily is all over the place... In the middle of the night between 0440z and 0640z she first spins a few times at a standstill, then takes off almost due north, then changes her mind and pulls what amounts to a u-turn west then southwest... Watching the full animation is enough to make you dizzy. Both radar and satellite continue to suggest that despite all the stumbling around Emily will keep getting faster and meaner all night long...

Come to think of it, right now this storm is behaving very much like one of my old girlfriends. :wink:

Some live webcams in the path of Emily...

There are other webcams available at http://www.vialidad.telmex.net/ but I don't know where all the cities are.

A reporter from a Houston TV station was in San Fernando, Mexico near the center of the storm after it made landfall Wednesday. You can see his report shown on the 10 p.m. news that evening which shows flying debris, an 18 wheeler overturning, and other storm footage here.

If that link doesn't work you should be able to find the video from their main page at http://abclocal.go.com/ktrk.

I think all 3 of the big networks sent someone from Houston. Watched the Channel 2 guy down on Padre Island.
