LI Phil, knowing Lixion (Avila) myself...I'm not having a hard time picturing him saying that! A bit slower than normal and you've got it, haha.

So now, this might be the long-awaited system we here in Tallahassee have been waiting on for almost 5 years. 'Bout time! I can't see anything east of Cedar Key, with somewhere on the big end of the Fl. Panhandle (Destin-Apalachicola) most likely. But, I do think it'll get very close to some of the points further west as well, so it's not going to be a small region affected by this storm.

You all can bet that there will be some chase teams from here at FSU heading out if Bonnie is close enough. Watching TD #3 too - I'm impressed by the outflow pattern, but not impressed by the overall feel of the storm. I've been bitten on these types of systems too many times to get my hopes up too much about anything happening. It needs to slow down - but if it does, it's got a reasonably favorable environment ahead of it. Not even going to peg a guess as to where it may go.
