Let’s compare size. #Idalia (2023) took a similar route to what #Helene is taking. But notice the smaller extent of Tropical Storm force winds from Idalia (image 2). Helene is already larger, with the wind field favoring the east side of circulation. Further reaching stronger winds (and rain) expected compared to Idalia, which was overall, a smaller major hurricane. #wx

Rep #RalphNorman (R), whose state was also inundated by #flooding from #Idalia, told reporters yesterday that it would be “unacceptable” to pass a #stopgap #funding bill that doesn’t offer these #concessions….
“It’s time to fight,” Norman said. “If it shuts the government down, shut it down.”
#FloridaRepublicans walk fine line on #DisasterAid, as #shutdown looms
#HouseRepublicans from #Florida, which was hit by a major #hurricane last month, are attempting a delicate balancing act on #DisasterRelief funding.
FL Rs say they support additional disaster aid to help their state recover from Hurricane #Idalia….
(but) they won’t vote for disaster aid linked to #Ukraine funding.

#Idalia T+7. I still have yet to see a Mediacom truck anywhere in the city, so who knows when we are getting modern internet back at the house. Most people I know have power back, and most of the shortages of goods have passed. Bowie is very happy that she now has control of the box (for now)

AL95 is better formed, right now, than #Idalia was, even right before going over W. Cuba.
I no likee.
It has a 90% chance of turning Cyclone within a week.
