For most of the day the trend was to keep this thing just as a wave and have it stay down around the Bay of Campechee (sp?), but now it seems that it may develop into something and move northward into the Gulf. Three of the models take it along the Northern Gulf Coast, ranging from a New Orleans to a Panama City landfall--just as I am preparing to come down for two weeks on the 15th!

Let me say that no one is stating that it will be a hurricane, SSts are in the upper 80s from what I have heard on The Weather Channel, so it may just be a storm or even just a depression. We could sure use the rain from it around the South though.

Looks like we will have Tropical Storm "Alberto" in the Gulf by early to mid-week.

Thanks for those links SJ. Dr. Steve Lyons on TWC says that is will most likely move towards Tampa, bringing beneficial rains to the penisular areas of FL. We could sure use some of that rain here in GA.

I guess it's better now than later when storms are likely to be stronger. We do need the rain. I guess our plans to evacuate to Gainesville (also in path) or SoWal (house rented) might need some tweaking. :blink: I bought extra supplies this morning! ;-)

Jeff Masters is the best. He provides factual info from someone who knows the topic intimately. And more importantly, he can speculate intelligently without being sensational. He called the need to evacuate New Orleans on Tues or Wed, if I recall correctly. I've been enjoying his series excerpting his recent interview in the Ft. Walton paper.

That interview is published on the web site I noticed.

Wish we could get some rain from it. But it looks as if it is not going to be coming up our direction. Pooh!

Now reached tropical storm status. We could use a little rain, but our beaches cannot take a pounding!

At least it looks like it will stay to the east which means Alberto won't take out all our walkovers like Arlene did. What a mess.
