Good Morning Freepers....

The loop has included the 12:15 utc image. It is turning west.

I've been in Richmond less than a year, so your guess is as good as mine. I know the Tidewater universities are shut down and many schools in the Richmond area are closing at noon today.

Oddly, there is a B-2 Stealth Bomber flyover scheduled for the Thurs night game between VT and Texas A&M.

In Virginia or Texas? BTW, nice tag.

Do you think he would notice that the lifejacket I gave him to put on was metalic and shaped like and weighed the same as an anchor?

[AppyPappy]

Virginia.

[Howlin]

New coordinates and the eye has closed.

She will strengthen now. She may well be a 3 at 11 a.m.

[Molly Pitcher]

Ooooooooooooooo...probably not, he's so stupid!

[Howlin]

Check the links on this site:

It is in Lexingon, Virginia, and it has links to Virginia sites where you can find that information.

[Howlin]

Yes, she is. WNW. And before she gets to the Gulf Stream.

I have no idea what that means.

One thing to remember is that the beaches where the strike is expected (that is, below Cape Lookout) run east to west.

[NotJustAnotherPrettyFace]

He's counting on you to give him the latest updates! (Yeah, that's the ticket! :-)

Yeah, ole' Jetmaxx seems to be right on the money.

[Howlin]

I feel like Robert Redford as Butch Cassiday: "Who ARE those guys?"

[glock rocks]

here's a huge list of east coast surfcams from FL to ME... some are streaming with sound... not for the weak of bandwidth :o)

Aw, jeez. The missus and I are going to be in Harrisburg, PA for a X-stitch fest (we'll, she's going to the festival, I'm going to Gettysburg), and wouldn't you know it, this happens. Sheesh. Good luck to all of you on the coast, and God bless. See you on the other side of the storm!

[Howlin]

Very cool.

BTW, Virginia Beach is "encouraging" evacuation as of 11 a.m. this morning.

[djf]

I think Charleston, SC. better start thinking about it. Two days ago I predicted within 100 miles.

[Molly Pitcher]

keeper, TWC just said the airlines probably will make travel adjustments as to reroutes, changed reservations and fees attached to those changes. Check with your airline, and also follow TWC for coverage of those conditions around airports.

Roanoke is a difficult airport to begin with. I know a pilot up here in PA who had to make an emergency landing there in a 747. Not good memories! And my brother took off once from there with an overloaded small plane. He struggled to get over the mountains. I wouldn't want to be there with Isabel dropping in anywhere close!

Morning Howlin--I understand you are in the path of this monster,and wonder where you are located?
