Update on #TropicalStorm #Melissa .... winds are still at 50mph but rapid strengthening is expected this weekend, with forecast to be a #cat4 #hurricane by Sunday.
#CAT4
An easy #Rouvy workout. First one in the "Masters" plan.
It was on a mainly uphill #cat4 route, so the distance is a bit low. Really enjoyed it when we did start descending... I could almost feel the wind on my scalp!

Hope any of my peeps living in Florida have either gotten out or has the best of builds where they live.
Hurricane Milton off the coast. Be safe. Here's some live local news covering it. Take care.

10/7/24 805A CDT Update for Hurricane Milton
...MILTON RAPIDLY INTENSIFIES INTO A CATEGORY 4 HURRICANE...
Data from both Hurricane Hunter aircraft indicate that Milton has
strengthened to a category 4 hurricane. The maximum sustained winds are estimated to be 150 mph (240 km/h). Milton is a category 4 hurricane on the Saffir-Simpson Hurricane Wind Scale. Data from the aircraft also indicate that the minimum pressure has fallen to 940 mb (27.76 inches).
#HurricaneMilton is now at #Category3 strength. NOAA is currently forecasting it will increase in strength to #Category4 before dropping back to category 3 before landfall. Of course that could change.

#Hurricane #Helene #CAT4 pre landfall via #GOES combined IR and visual bands. She really stepped on the gas so landfall is imminent
Blue symbols are just some of the streamgages where major flooding is expected in the western part of North Carolina. At the gage below the red marker the prior record water level will be blown away by an additional 10 feet of water height! 😬

Edit: NOAA now forecasts Helene to reach category 4 with wind at 115mph and gusts to 140mph. This is at sea Thursday 1pm. #Cat4
@br00t4c
When #Beryl was approaching #Jamaica as a #Cat4, they were predicting it would fall to a #TropicalStorm by the time it reached the Gulf.
I laughed.
Then they updated that to a "minimal Cat1."
I laughed again.
Now they're are concerned it could be a Cat2 or even Cat3 by the time it hits #Texas.
I assure you. it will be at least a minimal Cat2 by the time it hits just SouthWest of #Houston.
