Ser Pounce Posted September 7, 2017 Share Posted September 7, 2017 On Tropical Tidbits it's unclear whether she's back over water again... I don't think it's there before that turn into South Georgia. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LithiaWx Posted September 7, 2017 Share Posted September 7, 2017 Missed all day and now Irma is headed towards Atlanta? I've felt pretty safe on the west side of the storm but she's inching closer and closer to us here. NHC has us dead in the cone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Expand It's close enough that it would allow it to not weaken nearly as much and storm surge on the ga coast would be quite a bit higher compared to the euro i imagine. another run that shows the potential for serious inland winds too for much of georgia/sc. low ends up near atlanta by hour 105 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

UpstateSCBud Posted September 7, 2017 Share Posted September 7, 2017 This presents quite the headache for government officials in SC I'd imagine. Do you order a mandatory evacuation of the coast still, when you could potentially be sending people into worse conditions? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I heard somewhere that Sat 8AM in SC they will do lane reversals and evacuations! May be hard for you to get to the beach! On a side note, can someone post one of the wind speed maps as the eye is closest to Orlando! Have some people that need to evacuate, but need to show it to them!?

Lookout Posted September 7, 2017 Share Posted September 7, 2017 This gfs run is even worse with winds for ne ga and the upstate. 75 to 80mph gusts from athens to anderson to greenville. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YetAnotherRDUGuy Posted September 7, 2017 Share Posted September 7, 2017 If someone was given an assignment to come up with a scenario in which a storm would have the most destructive impact possible on the state of FL, would it not be this latest GFS run?

Expand Just think about that. It wrecks the entire east coast of Florida, then it drives at least tropical storm force winds through the entire 85 corridor from Atlanta to Charlotte.

Expand From what I read earlier it sounded like they're setting up lane reversals on I-26 here in Charleston and probably extending to Columbia starting 10am Saturday. Depending on how tomorrow goes I could see them cancelling it. Who knows, depending on how this thing tracks it could end up making a mess if people upstate want to get out. We have exactly one house in the neighborhood that's boarded up now and I asked the guy about it. He said his wife was going crazy and it wasn't worth arguing about so he just did it.
