Well, they have moved the tract more to the east overnight. When I went to bed, they had moved it more west toward the Cape. Means a lot of good rain up through central Florida and Georgia. These areas can use the rain too.

as long as it stays a strong tropical storm or light hurricane im not worried(have family in naples).. after my family was forced to relocate after katrina i have a different attitude about hurricanes.. when i was a younger they were fun like camping because the lack of electricity.. my mom went through the most powerful hurricane to ever make landfall hurricane camille in 1969 in biloxi,ms.. 190mph sustained winds and i never really understood why she was so afraid of hurricanes untill I experienced katrina.. while the storm surge was worse in katrina the wind damage was no where near camille(according to my mom).. our house was officially 24 feet above sea level on the back bay of biloxi and we had about 4ft of water intrusion.. most houses in my neighborhood were reduced to a brick chimney..I wouldnt wish it on anyone..

Well, now they are showing it coming up to St. Augustine, then curling back over the Valdosta area and then hanging around into Saturday. I will be happy for the rain, but there are going to be some boy scouts who are not happy with the rain if it ruins their scalloping trip to St. Marks this Saturday

I think that Red line is a bit to far to the North

but then I've been off on predicting this one from the getgo

Here she comes guys...gonna cut right across the entire big bend area. Man, I need the rain, but I sure have some disappointed Boy Scouts. I am watching the weather and if it clears quick enough, might take them to the Hatch on Sunday.

Hopefully, Fay will push some fish back into JT51's fishing holes so he will be able to catch a few. That is if he can get there before everyone else. See you on the water JT.
