You think I could present on my research investigating kinematic processes related to rapidly weakening tropical cyclones? :) #AtmosphericScience

Yes!

Remember that the cone is not ever to be used to see where impacts will be experienced. The cone only shows where the center of the storm could track with a historical 2/3 probability.

Oof yeah... this is why I really like the experimental cone that shades watches/warnings over land. I'm hoping wider use of that format will improve public understanding of spatial risk

I agree! I always glance right over it so I bet the general public isn't reading it either

Excellent and very important reminder for those not familiar with the NHC forecast graphic! I have seen way too many people mess up their explanation and interpretation of the cone...

Hurricanes that are far away can still create deadly rip currents and waves. Never assume that the ocean is safe, even if the weather is nice. Check the forecast before you go. weather.gov/beach
