My Isabel observations at 2:40pmCDT

#1 Postby Stormcenter » Thu Sep 18, 2003 2:43 pm

Isabel at this time is a bunch of strong but not severe winds with not much associated widespread "heavy" rainfall. The fact that she's moving quickly makes flooding less likely. Also, so far no tornadoes have been reported which makes sense based on the lack of deep convection in this storm. Hopefully no lives will be lost but I did see someone posted that a storm related death had been reported. Hopefully that will be the only one. Yeah maybe Isabel was not the same cat.5 storm she once was several days ago but she still will have left her mark after everything is said and done. By the way, the NHC did a GREAT job predicting her final landfall and strength. Kudos to all of them!!!!!!!!!!!
