Hurricane Dorian Intermediate Advisory- Sept 2-8am
At 8am Hurricane Dorian is still a Cat 5 Hurricane with winds ar 165 mph.
The biggest difference between last night and this morning is the forward speed of Dorian.
Dorian is now barely moving, almost stationary Moving West at 1mph
This massive storm continues to pound the NW Bahamas. It’s currently just sitting over Freetown in Grand Bahama. My thoughts and prayers are with those on the Bahamas.
The peak winds (Some TS Force gusts in squals) and rain for Dade and Broward should be later today through midday tomorrow afternoon. I anticipate things getting much better tomorrow evening for Dade and Broward.
Thise from Palm Beach North and all the way up the coast of Dlorida, Ga, SC, and NC need to continue to monitor Dorian very closley.
Dorian will be VERY close to the Florida East coast over the next few days as it hugs the coast.
A TS Watch is in effect for Broward, TS warning in Palm Beach, Hurricane warnings and watches all the way up to Jacksonville.
There are also Storm Surge warnings for North of Deerfield Beach of 2-7ft.
To put this in perspective compared to our friends in the Bahamas. Grand Bahama is currently experiencing Storm Surge of up to 23 Ft!! Again, this is going to be catastrophic for the NW Bahamas.
In closing please keep watching and stay prepared especially for Palm Beach North. In Dade and Broward we will see some TS squals especially later today and tonight but we are mostly going to miss most of Dorians fury.
After Dorian leaves the Bahamas we ALL need to do whatever it takes to help our neighbors in the Bahamas. They will be needing our assistance for many months.
I have already been in discussions with a few people who are organizing relief efforts for the Bahamas and I will post here and on my Blog at THEOGDAILYBUZZ.COM.
Thank you.
