JB on fox says Savanah to OBX 11p

[BensonTCwatcher]

He said that after the SW trough leaves it gehind, it will then be pulled in by the high the will be over the NE as forecast.

He did not say much about the loop specifically, just the overall motion.

I agree with him this time. He also said it's moving east too.

Where is that???

[Tempest]

Been quite a while since one pointed this way...don't like that forcast at all!

[BayouVenteux]

Where is that???

The Outer Banks of North Carolina.

BTW, did Terry and Howie agree with JB?

Joe is desperate for a hit on the Outer Banks. That was one of the hot spots in his hurricane landfall forecast this year. So it's not surprising that he's trying to pull "O" up that way. As always, who knows he could be right.

I would totally shocked if one came our way. Savannah hasn't been hit since David long ago. We haven't been hit in over a 100 years.

It doesn't matter if that was one of his forecast hot spots. He can't wiggle his nose and make it happen. I think he's forecasting it where he thinks it will go, not his general prediction area from a few months ago. Whether he's right or not remains to be seen. I don't think anyone is confident they know where this one is going.

[BensonTCwatcher]

Yeah, he does radio here locally, ( sounds like he lives here) so I usually catch him every morning. Rode my bike to work today so I did not hear what he said. Sometimes he let's 'er hang out there bit. Sort of what he doesn't say.

But last night he made a good argument for the track, and it looks like it it's happening. Lot of time left as slow she is moving though.

Well... people said New Orleans wouldn't be hit either.

Accuweather also said it would move across Florida into the Gulf towards the effected area of Katrina.

A lot of us had that concern as the GFDL and Euro consistenly showed that solution. Not sure about AccuWx as a whole, but JB pretty much conceded that idea yesterday and is now saying East Coast.

What station, BensonTCWatcher?

[Frantastic]

JB does local weather on 680AM (triangle/eastern NC) Usually 10 minutes before each hour on the morning show.

Ok, thanks. I may be a little too far east to pick it up.

I appreciate it though.
