To give you a sense of how incredibly rare and unique Hurricane #MELISSA is, here are the most-intense landfalling Atlantic hurricanes that we have on record.

MELISSA is now tied with LABOR DAY 1935 at the top – something I'd never imagine to see in my lifetime.

I will say it again #Melissa's current satellite presentation is to the T with Super Typhoon Haiyan was in 2013. In my 20 years of observing hurricanes in the Atlantic I can't seem to recall anything close to what we're seeing tonight. No comparisons come to mind.

From a crewmember on yesterday's Teal 74 mission into now-Category 5 Hurricane #Melissa. As clear of an eye as you will see in the Atlantic basin.

Tracking The #Tropics: A tropical wave in the Atlantic is producing widespread showers and storms. Dry air will limit development over the next couple of days, but gradual strengthening is expected later this week.

A big SEC matchup in Knoxville today! Perfect weather as the Vols take on the Bulldogs with kickoff temps in the mid 80s.

We’ve reached the climatological peak of the #Atlantic hurricane season. It’s interesting how quiet things are, since this is usually the busiest time in the tropics

7 DAY FORECAST (9/7) | A pleasant stretch of weather ahead. Expect dry conditions all week with a warming trend into the 80s by midweek.

TRACKING THE #TROPICS | A tropical wave over the central tropical Atlantic is producing a small area of disorganized showers and thunderstorms. Conditions are not very favorable, and the chances of this system becoming a tropical depression are going down.

Plenty of #SEC games look wet today with scattered showers and storms expected across the region. Keep rain gear close if you are heading to a game!

Live from the Jersey Shore: Hurricane #Erin is tracking farther out to sea, and surf conditions are starting to improve. Coastal flooding and dangerous rip currents remain a concern.

This Erin is hoping for a nice beach weekend ☀️

[National Hurricane Center @NHC_Atlantic]

There is a high risk of rip currents from today and on Thursday for most U.S. east coast beaches from South Florida to Massachusetts due to Hurricane #Erin.

Beachgoers are urged to follow information from lifeguards, local authorities, and beach warning flags. The best advice? Stay out of the water!
