Local weather here in Pcola says that if Katrina follows its projected track, we will have 70 plus mph winds here in Pensacola..thats incredible being 175 miles away...I hope S Mississippi and Bama are awake
This could be nothing, but Katrina is just a hair east of the last NHC forecast point. It could mean nothing, as she is a very large storm, but then again, as Katrina is currently curving, it could translate to 20 or 30 miles at landfall. It'll be real intersesting to see if there are any shifts east to the track at the 10am. This would mostly affect MS Gulf Coast. Such a track shift would spare NO the worst but would be similar to a Camille situation for MS.
Take this with a grain of salt. It's a valid observation and a conculsion, but I know this is a situation that is highly charged and am not trying to juice it up any further.
If you are on the MS Gulf Coast then check the 10am for this possibility.
