still haven't been able to ask my weather scientist friend so let me put this out to the fediverse:
i don't ever remember seeing a #hurricane take the path #Helene took. i consider it an incredibly abnormal path. to me, it moved more like a tornado.
has anybody come across any commentary, articles or even pre-review papers addressing that?
#Milton #Kirk #Irene are the common hurricane paths i’ve seen of my decades of paying attention to hurricanes. #Helene’s path was just whack.

@blogdiva What was unusual about Helene is that it was so poorly organized plus surrounded by tons of hot air, which allowed a huge amount of moisture to latch on. This is a climate change thing. The remnants of hurricanes follow this path all the time, but they’re usually tiny rainstorms by then, barely even depressions. I’ve been through many. Helene was supercharged & didn’t peter out before it got to us!

@blogdiva Milton is actually a really unusual path as well, starting in the western gulf then hitting Tampa. I just read a (horribly paywalled, sorry) story about it: https://apple.news/AkzJMEIWYTFeB0-N75tNl2g
