Just got the super loud Emergency Alert Warning on our phones… warning us we are about 36 hours from possible life threatening storm surge. 🙁

The Katrina flooding occurred because the levees protecting the homes below sea level broke. If you know your elevation, that is a good start for planning.

Here in central Florida, 50 miles east of Tampa it has been steady, but light rain. Not much wind at all.

Along the west coast I am sure the winds are higher. It is not extending inland too much. The Big Bend area of Florida will get smacked as the storm intensifies.

New tradition! I have learned to get the house freezing cold in case the power goes out. The wife has to throw on her supermarket sweater. This Mexican Hot Chocolate takes the edge off it.

PS it keeps getting worse here. It's been better'n a half gale all day with constant but light rain. Now it's gusting to a full gale with heavy rain and the first rumbles of thunder I've heard all day. Oh, and naders.
To: numberonepal
Chocolate. It's for hurricanes. Glad your electricity is holding on.
Whole Tampa Bay area is under flash flood warning. No surprise there with all the rain and some storm surge expected. A few more hours of rain expected, though not as persistently torrential.

Regarding that Atlanta/Outer Banks idea from earlier... the ICON Model (the one that was correct for Texas back in June) is
now forecasting a 960 mb landfalling hurricane up near Wilmington, NC for the middle of the night Wednesday/Thursday... that would be around a Cat 3 storm.
It's not a certainty, of course, but enough for y'all in that area to take heed.

Do you have a feel for whether you are getting the max impact expected for your area from Debby?
Local news showing video of Howard Frankland Bridge in Tampa being washed over. Bridge is still open, cars getting swamped with bay water.
Flash floods--reports of fresh water rescues occurring in Manatee Co.

Those people are tough.Lots of Yankees (and folks from Atlanta - is there any difference now) have moved out on those coastal islands. It could get messy for them.

I lived in southeast Georgia for 25+ years (retired from working for the City of Savannah). In all the time I worked and lived there (and during the ten years I have lived in Texas) they never seem to have dealt adequately with street flooding no matter how much $$ they spend on drainage projects. Besides that, just a run of the mill high tide will flood Hwy 80 and make it impassable (the one road leading to Tybee Island)
To: M Kehoe
Expecting Debby to be a hurricane by 11:00 update. Current sustained winds 70 mph.
Is your flooding a combination of rain and storm surge?

Savannah is pretty low-lying and the streets do not have any drainage. So yeah, if they get a few inches of rain in a short amount of time, access to Tybee will be impossible. I assume the residents are making plans to stay where they are are for a few days.
Hubby has relatives in Brunswick, Some who live right on the marshes a couple of miles from the access road to Jekyll. I believe they are battening down the hatches as best they can and heading northwest to ride it out.
