I think its odd how they have that storm arching in at an angle going left and somehow hitting Mobile still. Its going to need a right turn to hit mobile.

I grew up in Miami.

When I visited Pensacola, I was pretty sure I was in Alabama.

I remember hearing that New Orleans was moving with the Mississippi River, toward the Gulf of Mexico.
