It looks like it'll be in and out before kickoff Saturday. However, I hope it doesn't cause any practices to be cancelled, but that would have to take a serious turn for the east in order for Auburn to tell football players not to walk to the indoor facility.
The South Carolina @ Vanderbilt game may be affected.

Meh. It's a one or a two. No need to panic. just a little wind and rain.

Last storm track I saw...

Substitute the Van Gorder stache and we could have an ass ripper of a hurricane.

That blows. I have a week long class in Gulfport next week that will likely get canceled.

In 1997 I was living in Pcola when Cat 1 Hurricane Danny made a direct landfall. It was my birthday. We went to the movies and out to dinner. Had to turn the windshield wipers on and that was about it. Car didn't even shake in the wind as we were driving across the Bay Bridge.
So Cat 1/2 or Tropical Storm?

The problem we'll face down here will be flooding. And, wasn't Danny the TS that stayed in Mobile Bay for like three days and flooded the Eastern Shore? Furthermore, it drained like 2 o r 3 feet from the bay water level.

We're already way above the average here for rainfall.

Danny wasn't much of anything, really. He was barely a hurricane and sat in Mobile Bay for like 2 days. I've lived about 10 minutes from the Gulf all of my life, and Ivan scared the shit out of me. First hurricane that I was ever scared of. I was leading the crew manning our town's fire station, and we hauled ass to the old PD when our garage doors blew in. And that was hours before it even made landfall. When we were in the eye, we couldn't even get a block down the road in any direction to get a peek at damage. It was insane.
They're projecting this one as around 80-90 mph when it hits. Relatively speaking, fairly tame.

I just want my flight to Miami Monday morning to be canceled, so I can work from home all week.

Hurricane Ivan was my favorite one of all. Hit Mobile, started to fizzle out in Virginia, got into the Atlantic and regained it's strength and combined with another Hurricane (iirc), circled back around and hit Florida, then finished up in Georgia. I was rooting for it to get back into the Atlantic and swing around again, lol.

Danny was just shy of emptying the bay (just kidding) and flooded the eastern shore. Fredrick scared the shit out of me. Ivan was rough on the eastern shore and Gulf Shores, but had only 50+ mph winds in Mobile causing some damage to power lines and trees (tornadoes spawning from minimal hurricanes are a threat). but for the most part, didn't do too much damage. A Cat 1 hitting GS, or farther east, will cause minimal damage here while creating a bit of short term work for the area.

As long as you stay on your side of the Bay (over there with Sheridan) we'll be okay.

Well this is neat! My first evacuation!
Work's gonna be closed tomorrow & Wednesday. Maybe longer, but they're thinking not likely since the storm appears to be weakening.
So I've got to drive 5 hours to Montgomery tomorrow, 5 hours back on Wednesday, then 7 hours to ATL Friday, 7 hours back Monday.
-
Too young to remember Frederick, but the folks said that was the worst in our neck of the woods (Thomasville, 90 miles north of Mobile). At the time we lived in about an 800 sq ft clapboard sided house. After Frederick there were pine needles sticking out of the side of it. They said one side of the house looked like a porcupine.
Worst I remember was Opel, kept spinning off tornadoes. Took my Dad and I about 2 hours to get the mile down the road to the highway from all the trees down.

It's been a while since I lived there, but do you really have to leave?
I remember being a kid and trying to play basketball when Hurrican Andrew came through. Good memory. Much better than driving to Montgomery.

Still tryin to figure that out now.
I know work's gonna be closed for at least two days.
It's looking like the evacuation may not be mandatory now.
Still have no clue what the fuck I'm doing.

I thought the opposite was true...
Anyway, the main shitty thing will be that in the very least, we'll have no power for several days. It'll be hot as shit and with no lights, and boring as hell.

I would go. I was fully prepared to ride Katrina out, but a phone call from a friend convinced me to go home and party for the weekend. Good thing, or else I would have been stuck for two weeks with nothing.
Well, nothing except looters.
I Know NOLA is much more prepared this time...but if I were you....

I'm thinking its headed towards the Wiregrass area to put out the fire of my loins.

We're getting some wind from the Hurricane. I think we should wear helmet decals to remember this day.

I dodged a swirl of leaves whipped into a frenzy by a 15 mph gust of wind.
I am going to file for medical leave. I was traumatized.

Luckily, we were riding it out in our FEMA approved safe room. The chair did sustain a slight scratch, though. It was traumatic.

Not that bad here in Gulf Shores. Sustained winds around 30, gusting to 40. We have had 1.5" of rain here since 00:41 this morning. Flooding at the beach is the main problem right now.
-
Here in Saint Clair County, we have been holed up in the basement all evening. I'm almost afraid to see what it looks like out there.

FEMA set up camp in NOLA four days before the hurricane hit. Hmmm. Anywho, they have 18 truckloads of diapers and tennis shoes for the hurricane victims. Washington has promised water and ice, but those trucks went to Tampa instead. God Bless NOLA.

unrecognizable. Good news though, there has been quick response by the community and clean
up efforts are already underway.

Half a million are without power in SE Louisiana.
I got out, but mainly just because I needed to take care of some things with the rental house in B'ham before new tenants took over this weekend.
Abandoned the wife back in NOLA.
I was planning on driving back today, but that's looking like a not-so-good idea. Pretty sure work will be closed tomorrow too. I'm gonna stick around here until the weekend, and then I'm headed to ATL.
The contingency plan was supposed to be the old lady meeting up with her friend in Mobile and riding with them to ATL, but it's sounding like that friend's not wanting to wait on her.

WOW. So not only did you leave your wife there but you were also heartless and did not offer rides to any of the individuals who did not possess their own transportation to get out of the city? That sounds like something GWB would do.
