Tropical Storm Fay

[Smiling JOe]

I don't know why they would waste such money advertising to a base of Florida users since they won't even insure here.

Of the models that attempt to consolidate a consensus result, Florida State Superensemble is the best.

I just wish they'd release the FSU Superensemble results to the public. (The people who run that model only share results with the NHC and paid subscribers) It's like the Elvis Lives! of hurricane modeling- everyone's heard of it, and it's reported to still be a heckava rock star, but very few people actually get to see it.

I was trying to quote you but thanked you but that is ok. Yes, isn't it funny how we come to SoWal for information when we could just Google it.

Looks like Nohall, GTTBM, BR and others will be getting some rain! Even better news is it looks like it will remain a tropical storm and not reach hurricane strength.

Nothing like a few adult beverages in the hot tub in the rain. Pepper and I will be at the beach from Friday until Labor Day.

Ironically we have functional hurricane shutters at our home in Georgia (the architect wanted to make the house an authentic Louisiana plantation home), but not at the beach. Go figure.

Actually we needed those hurricane shutters during Hurricane Opal in 1995. Those shutters really saved us. It was also my first year in Junior League, and we conducted our annual attic sale fundraiser with no power. We didn't have power at home for a week. Had to rent a motel room by I-85 to take a hot shower since our water heater is electric.

Some of the more reliable models are now showing Fay retrograding from the Atlantic back across Florida and into the Gulf south of Fla/Alabama line this weekend as a strengthening storm. The weather guy on Chanel 7 seemed to think it was rather plausible and that the hurricane center was likely to make significant changes to the forecast track tomorrow. Something to watch during the week.

This is a great story about Sea Turtles and Hurricane Fay. I admire these people, as I admire our turtle watchers here!

Looks like we are going to have a wet weekend. I guess we need the rain.

Fishing will be good. Those fish know when the storms are coming and they like to fee heavily before their environment gets all stirred up and thrown about. Expect good fishing from now through a few days after the storm passes.
