As for the Bushwhacker Festival, that would bite. That's my favorite frozen beach (chick) drink in the world. It's one of the greatest drinks ever. They make it a couple of different ways depending on where you are on the Panhandle. But I loves me some Bushwackers.

Lol...best drink ever!...it just all depends where this low decides to spin up..

I think she was making reference to the fact that you can never really tell what a Tropical system may do.

Well, I've read a little and about to go read some more pages, but I have a question. I think I've seen it either implied or posted that it could move in just about all four directions. lol
If I understand it correctly, it's most likely to move primarily northward and do it fairly quickly, or no? But... if it sits for a while with weak steering currents, that high pressure might build in from the east. Not enough to send it west though, right?


I've read more since I posted that, but I still don't know the answer. Perhaps nobody knows. 8-)


does the name Alicia come to mind :idea:

:eek: :crying: :Chit: :mad: :Door:

They are NOT endorsed by any professional institution or storm2k.org. For official information, please refer to the NHC and NWS products.

With a strong ridge expected to build in, anything that forms
would likely move towards the mississippi coastline or
just west of there also possibly panhandle of FL.
So anywhere from louisiana to the fl panhandle
is possible for getting the heavies from this...
including alabama

Now I know that location is still uncertain for this low
