Jacksonville generally spared of IANโs impact
There is always a plot twist on how major hurricanes impact when making landfall. A quick preliminary look at how Ian impacted Florida it was the extreme storm surge and not so much the winds. Despite the high winds recorded by Hurricane Hunters (over 150 mph), the reality on the ground was winds that were not even close to those levels. Yet, the storm surge has seriously impacted SW parts of the state. Storm surge and a more easterly track across the state as Global Forecast models didnโt handle Ianโs track shift to the east very well. I suspect those models underestimated the cool-dry air draining down the east coast of the United States. This set up our local norโeaster conditions. The cool-dry air acted as a barrier, forcing Ian to track more easterly and then northerly.
