If...How long would it take to get there?

#1 Postby MONTEGUT_LA » Thu Sep 13, 2007 8:14 am

My family and I are scheduled to be in South Carolina on sept 19-21. If TD #8 decides to go toward the east coast, about what day will it reach the area?

I have already book our rental car but I haven't book the hotel yet. I really don't want to be stuck in the middle of a hurricane in a city I know nothing about in regards to flood prone area and such.

I'd say it's about 2,000 miles away and going slow. Could be 6-10 days away. But it's just a guess.

At the rate td 8 is moving it should get to the US around Holloween, if it survives.

LOL, but really it's moving so slow I almost can't watch it! After the Humberto fiasco I'm gonna relax for a few days and see what's going on then.

But who knows, maybe a new storm will develop at breakneck speed like Humberto did?
