Latest recon says that they found winds 122Knots in the NE quadrant....what does that equate to, maybe about 130 mph? Would that make it a CAT 4?
Kimmie
multiply by 1.15 = 140mph but I believe that recon is at altitude, not the surface (which are lower), and thus they will extrapolate what the surface winds would be.

If were to move NW all the way to landfall, he would hit NO. Check out their forecast maps. The movement from here to the coast has always been NNW. is still right on track. They have done an amazing job with this storm.

I agree jth, Biloxi is by no means out of the picture, but the more this thing goes NNW, and the numbers don't lie, the better we'll do... I expect right now for us to get Cat 1 hurricane force winds if every thing goes to plan...

Camille hit in August of 1969. I was 13. It was a CAT 5 and the winds that hit near the eye, in Hancock Co MS, were around 200mph.

August 17, 1969 my car's clock stopped at 11:36 pm on a Sunday night as that's the time it went under water.. it was a 63 Rambler, I was 16... needless to say the car never worked again.... as I recall it didn't work too good to start with...

That sounds reasonable. I believe the storm will make landfall just east of Pcola....maybe as far east as Destin.

one weather channel guy said that the blow up on the east quad will swing back around and it could be enough to jog west a bit overnight.

Really appreciate the concern Daniel...we're in Tallahassee in brick house with three sides glass exposure to the South. As long as the storm stays on it's track to Al/FL border and we don't get winds too strong here..we'll keep the roof! Thanks again.

I have been off the site here since 4pm...needed a break. The last radar loops I looked at showed at N/NW motion. Am I correct in that thinking?

You know you're a hurricane freak when you wake up in the morning and hit "REFRESH" on CFHC instead of the Snooze Button.

Jim Cantore just brought up a really good point.
As many found out during the 2004 season.
They stayed behind, and when it got really bad they called 911.
Most, if not all, Emergency Service Agencies-Fire, Police, Ambulance, Sherriff; Will Not come out after the winds reach 45 mph.
It is far too dangerous for them to come out and try and rescue you.
If someone has asked you to leave. Be it family, friends or authorities.
Please get out now while there is still time.
