I think the big question is how strong will she be? The NHC seems to think some shear will keep her in check, if not weaken the hurricane. What is your take on that at this time?

Wow....SouthernWx :lightning:
.....thanks for the Savannah Hurricane history....mine certainly doesn't go back that far.....my reasoning goes with the local Savannah lore...."Haven't seen a bad hurricane in 100 years." But I ALWAYS watch. Just in case...thanks for the updated info!!

Here's some interesting reading....the HURDAT hurricane re-analysis project.
Check out #4....toward the bottom of the page...regarding landfalling Georgia hurricanes between 1850 and 1900.
http://www.aoml.noaa.gov/hrd/hurdat/

The October 1898 cat-4 was as intense as Hugo (120 kt)...and caused a 19' foot storm surge near Brunswick (downtown Brunswick was innundated...offshore barrier islands were obliterated).

...ahhh but this childish bunk again. Weatherwoman you better learn what trends are in forecasting weather, they don't play favorites to fit someones little image.
model trends, weather patterns, & storms don't play favorites so why don't you sit down with a good book on weather or better yet do some searching and read up, a lot available on the net - then come back and talk about something interesting such as models or theories why you predict what the weather will do?

Weatherwomen, with all due respect be very carefull what you wish for!. At this time Jeanne is not a Florida , GA, SC, or NC hurricaneproblem. It is currently a Southeast US problem to be. Lets all hope not. I for one do not want another hurricane or tropical storm to hit Florida, 4 for the year is enough!. As for NC, you all have been hit/affected by 6 storms already!. Just pay attention to it. The models will change several more times before it is all said and done with.

Shear isn't expected to be a factor. They're hoping dry air and SSTs will keep her in check. If it doesn't, she could definitely become a major pain in our butts.
