I have never been in a Tropical Storm warning. This is weird.

Dola: 20 foot storm surge in the big bend area. "Unsurvivable" storm surge.

And I'm over here just to the east of GrantDawg, where I'm told I don't have to worry about flooding so much as pop-up tornados
Whee. edit: I'm also in the 8-10 inches of rain zone but fuck water when my ass could get blown away

It is amazing how much these things change from report to report. Woke up this morning looking at tracks moving the center of the storm right through Atlanta. The worst of the wind fields where a couple of counties over, but we were still in a pretty heavy area. Now, they are showing the track either going right over us, or maybe even going to the east of us. Fun.

Hope Flora-Bama doesn't get washed away. I believe they rebuilt once before, have to revisit one of these days.

Cat 4s are no joke. And the fast movement is better for the coast, but it's gonna cause more shit inland than we are used to. Right now they are predicting flash floods in the NC mountains, which I have never seen for a Gulf storm.
Thoughts and prayers to all effected. Stay safe, everyone. |

My parents and brother in Asheville are in some serious trouble as well. My brother said they will have already gotten several inches of rain over 2 days before the storm effects hit. They're looking at possibly well over a foot of rain in 3 days. Heck, even in KY we're expecting possible tropical storm force winds.

The last cone I saw has it just sitting over Tennessee for a few days which will pile up the rain on the east side of the storm.

Yeah some areas of the country who usually don't see much of the way in hurricane rain/wind/ etc looks like they will be seeing a lot. Myrtle Beach unless it moves East again will get some tropical storm winds/tornado risk and rain from feeder bands but otherwise looks OK for now.
Everyone stay safe and listen to authorities in all areas, but especially where you don't see this kind of stuff.

Ran to the grocery store. It's 1/2 mile each way, took different paths to and fro. From the storms Wednesday and continued rain, I counted 7 large trees that had fallen over. These were all established, non-dead trees. And we haven't even gotten the hurricane weather really.

My wife and I both got the phone call from the county. The wording was exactly as below, and my call came a good 5-10 minutes before she received. I had to ask her to put it on speaker when her call came in, because I thought I heard the football part wrong.

Eh, that's kinda all over the place even in Georgia, so I'm sure there's a wide spread in NC as well. We had games played as early as last night, we've got games scheduled as far out as next Mon (or Tues?), but there's also several still on the board for both tonight AND tomorrow night. (including in Elberton and Gainesville)

Hurricane warning is now in the counties directly south of us. It is creeping toward us.

It is a Cat 4 now. It's going to be a long, sleepless night.

Most disturbing indication of severity I've seen is that all the Waffle House locations in Tallahassee are closed/closing TFN.
That is NEVER good.

I wonder if the Village Idiot (Village Inn) still exists? It was like a local/regional chain cross between Denny's, IHOP and Waffle House.
Speaking of Tallahassee Waffle Houses, one of my law school buddies hooked up with a Waffle House waitress and we warned him it was a bad idea. Two days later, she called to ask if she could move in with him because she had no place to live. He's now married with 2 kids and a successful law firm (spoiler alert - not married to her). Nothing like an impending hurricane and live shots from the city to take you down nostalgia lane.

Good luck everyone in the path of the storm. With the storm basically 100 miles due west of us, we are basically dealing with wind gusts(storm surge) with the occasional shower. Despite that, there has been some significant flooding through the Tampa Bay area.

I dated a Waffle House waitress once. She was working her way through college, and I am pretty sure she is a nurse now. Actually, it's a boring story, unlike the waitress my buddy dated, who ended up stabbing hum.

And I thought my buddy chose unwisely. At least she didn't end up pregnant, or he didn't get stabbed!

OK, so that's weird. There are still 2 Tallahassee locations, but neither are marked on that map. They are M and N on the list, but M shows up in NY and I can't locate an N on the map. Sounds like the same old Village Idiot!
