Re: Inland Intensification of Tropical Cyclones

Good Morning!

Last nite I posted that Fay was gone.
Meaning it had gone extra tropical. And I was sleep deprived-;}

The NHC has Fay just now moving into Alabama this AM.

It's like the General has sent her Army away while she continues the march to New Orleans.
And saying that she will be their for 72 hours before marching into Mississippi.

I've said this many times-Fay's the weirdest storm I've ever seen.
She could come back and dump 26 inches of rain on top of the Superdome and I wouldn't be surprised.

I'd love to be in NO right now, to feel the conditions:
