[oldframe]

Escambia county schools are closed tomorrow ( Pensacola area) Baldwin county ( fla/ala line) letting out half day...mobile county says school as normal, as of now.

My sister in Chalmette just told me their schools cancelled tomorrow as well.

[PTPatrick]

Gut feeling, which means nothing, is that this ends up a little less impressive than nate at landfall. nate had a long way to build a surge, also more time to build and generally hit MS with a solid core. None of the models are terribly impressed with this things potential strength anymore. Hopefully Nate did a decent job of pruning last November and it ends up being a rain and PITA event with less power outage.

Incedentally, tis weird to be looking at a second MS landfall in a year. Growing up there we never had a back to back landfall...although it seems that happened in clusters with years of back to back threats and years where its quiet.

Much different time of the year than when Nate hit. This is peak season. Nate virtually dried up when it hit land...was pitiful.

Agreed...there is certainly some potential. If it can continue to strengthen to landfall it could give nate a run for his money with respect to wind. little to no Hurr force were measured in Mississippi with Nate. But Nate definately made his presence known... Ocean Springs to Pascagoula had a pretty impressive surge for a storm that weak. not to mention some decent power outage...my peeps were out for a couple of days. But the surge set up will be different due to angle of approach length of time needed to generate a surge.

Those towers are quickly transfering angular momentum into the system.
One of the fastest spin ups I have seen.

Those towers are quickly transfering angular momentum into the system.
One of the fastest spin ups I have seen.

Is it actually strengthing or is it anothe false alarm like earlier lol

Recon shows its strengthening.

I suspect next pass thru the CoC should show an even lower pressure.

Is that SFMR of 64mph rain contaminated?
