LovingGulfLows Posted September 11, 2017 Share Posted September 11, 2017 Power went out for me a couple of hours ago, but easily getting the strongest gusts of the day...even the sustained winds are crazy. Gotta think these gusts right now are over 60 easily...weather channel model said Atlanta would be 60-75 MPH wind gusts around 8. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jrips27 Posted September 11, 2017 Share Posted September 11, 2017 We have had some strong gusts over the past few hours here in Macon. Probably about 65mph tops but it wasn't still fun to stand outside and be blasted Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LithiaWx Posted September 11, 2017 Author Share Posted September 11, 2017 Yep, big tree down on my way home. Hopefully it doesn't get much worse. Me and the family are home now and hunkered down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sctvman Posted September 11, 2017 Share Posted September 11, 2017 Oh yes. Much of Charleston is flooded right now. California Dreaming (a waterfront restaurant) had 2-3' of water in the parking lot. Hit right at high tide. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NEGa Posted September 11, 2017 Share Posted September 11, 2017 Ok wow lol. Winds are just howling here. Neighbor part of a tree - it is roaring. Just has a 41 mph gust. Leaves are flying through the air Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

audioguy3107 Posted September 11, 2017 Share Posted September 11, 2017 Man, lost in all the wind reports here is just how lucky we are here with the high pressure to our north with cooler air in place since under a normal early September pattern, we would be in prime territory for a tropical system Tornado outbreak. Under a similar track, if it was close to 80 degrees or so with any kind of breaks in the clouds, we would have most likely seen numerous tornado touchdowns today.

Lookout Posted September 11, 2017 Share Posted September 11, 2017 Well just lost another tree..(about 15 minutes ago) ..it fell when the wind was only gusting to 40. Winds seemed to let up for about 5 minutes and then bam..had a gust to 60 a few moments ago. the highest yet...tree top level had to be higher. Made the house shake. Insane the power is still on...for now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Me and the family are home now and hunkered down. I wish it wouldn't get any worse but it seems the present conditions will last at least several more hours here. Am really Worried about the other trees. the back edge of the rain isn't too far off but it seems to be more convective which makes me worry a little Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DixieBlizzard Posted September 11, 2017 Share Posted September 11, 2017 Chris, you will like this. Glenn Burns just said, "there are a lot of dead and dying trees in north Georgia. You may not know it because they have leaves but trees die from the inside out. Next time, you may want to have an arborist to check out all of your trees". LOL! Must be nice to have Glenn Burns money. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ThePhotoGuy Posted September 11, 2017 Share Posted September 11, 2017 It has been a really windy day here in Nags Head (Outer Banks). Drove down to the beach, surf was very rough, ocean was covering most of the beach, and a ton of sea foam flying around! High Surf Advisory and a Rip Current alert was issued.

Power is out and limbs are flying everywhere. Pretty wild I have to admit (I am near Cornelia).

Ser Pounce Posted September 11, 2017 Share Posted September 11, 2017 53 minutes ago, No snow for you said: Charleston always floods. Just to what level. I think I read about the same level as Matthew last year. Yup, downtown is built largely on 18th and 19th century landfill so its elevation is low on top of however much settling the land itself has done. More or less across the river from Mt Pleasant St I'd say the peak surge came out maybe a couple of feet higher than Matthew. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
