The meaning of the name Isaac is ‘He will laugh’.
I meant that each time we follow a storm we see the government (NOAA in this case) feed us their data and tell us what it means (government science)
Yet if you follow any thread you see quickly during a storm that their dogmatic dictum is discarded within hours
.
bttt
omg; according to that, I’m looking at 12” of rain....
Sorry. It’s frustrating. I’ve got kin in harms way down there. They have NOT paid attention to the goings on because ‘the professionals’, ie government, said it’s going to Fl. Now that it’s clearly not going to Florida and it’s too late to real time prep by any large degree we’re all praying it doesn’t intensify overnight and trap my kin and a whole bunch of people who MIGHT have given it more attention had the possibility of a SELA track been acknowledged early on.
Sorry for run on sentence.
I’m praying for everyone in the Coastal areas. Praise God, Isaac isn’t Katrina and all the weather updates are confusing but none good. I’m watching the Weather Channel right now.
Amen. Amen!
Still a little shear in the southwest quadrant which thank God is easing the storm. If the shear dissipates plenty of fuel between now and land. Going to be bad anyways because of the “bowl”. Huge rain maker though which has plenty of benefits
Dang spell checker on this iPad, southeast, lol
Sorry southeast quadrant, need to review my post more, lol one slip of the finger and you are done for on mobile devices

Isaac appears to be finally pushing back some of the drier air. If not, this will be an Obama of a storm as far as wind goes. Lots of “promise,” no action.
Yesterday, he called the Florida governor by his first name and did the same for another elected official as well. No respect at all.
Obama's a perfect name for this storm. Lots of buildup, promises of what's to come, while everyone ignores what he's actually saying. Every update from NHC has included a separate paragraph highlighting these issues, and the widespread area which will be targeted.
This is a major tropical storm which will affect an area from the Florida panhandle to the Texas border. It will take days to fully pass through the area, and while it's doing that, it will have high sustained winds pushing a significant storm surge, followed by days of heavy rain.
If you're anywhere where water will gather during a heavy downpour, leave. If you're somewhere which can become isolated due to high water or downed trees, be prepared to remain in place without power for a week.
