at least it is near land so hopefully it won't strengthen too much

Unfortunately, I think she's sitting right on top of the Gulf Stream - so I'm glad she hasn't strengthened any more than she has.

The Savannah meteorologists were saying last night she was just going to go out to see, and they weren't mentioning the looping possibility at all....

Wow, that's really bad. One reason I don't watch my local TV mets at all.

NHC has never once forecast the storm to simply head out to sea and the overwhelming consensus of the model guidance has always been some sort of landfall eventually...may take a while, though.

Amelia,

You in Savannah? I spent every summer of my youth in Pooler and Tybee. They are like my second home.

I just love GA.

I dont want this thing to turn and hit anywhere near there. My 92 year old grandmother lives in Pooler.
