· 2026-10-09T12:38:48+00:00Imagine if we didn’t have shear with this. #Isaías looks impressive this morning even fighting some shear. Warmer than normal SSTs + Loop Current charging this thing up.

The storm seems to be a touch east of the NHC cone centerline, so expect landfall around Navarre or Fort Walton Beach, #FLwx.
