Claudette: Still classified a TS at this point, made landfall near Ft. Walton Beach at 12:10AM ET. Moving NW at 12 mph, max sustained winds 40 mph, continues to weaken over land.
Ana: Downgraded to TD status, is racing WNW at 28 mph. All of FL, much of AL, and the MS coast are in the forecast cone of uncertainty.
Bill has reached hurricane status with winds 75 mph, moving WNW at 22 mph. Hurricane winds extend 30 miles and TS winds 145 miles from the center. The five day forecast for Hurricane Bill does not predict landfall, while the storm is expected to reach major hurricane status.

Morning, NN. Oil futures are down this AM, so it looks like Big Oil isn’t too worried about Ana.

What’s all the convection and motion to the SW of Claudette?

Good morning, NN - thanks for the ping...
I’m assuming, from the chirping crickets in the ‘news’, that Claudette came onshore like a lamb.....

About 30 minutes after my wife got home, Tropical Wet Blanket Claudette declared it Happy Hour, opened up another monsoon burst, and took down a 10 foot tall trellis of Texas muscadines in my front yard.
Damn her!!!!! LOL
I'll need the truck to pull that sucker upright again. And probably about 20 linear feet of rebar to hold it there.
