Hello!

We are scheduled to be in Seagrove Aug 6-13th. I've been watching the weather and am starting to get freaked out because three days look like cloudy with T-storms possible and one day a 'few showers'. At this point it is shaping up to be exactly one day of sunshine. What does a 'cloudy' day on 30A really look like? Am I reading this wrong? In Baltimore, a cloudy day is considered overcast and gray. If I get one day of sunshine in my 'paradise' I may cry.
Sunday Monday 8/8/16 until Friday NHC saying >20% chance of Low forming
But heavy rains. Per weather channel and local stations
Hurricane forecasters are watching the northern Gulf #alwx trib.al/JD7Uc68

There have been a number of days when rain was predicted and it rained north of us and south of us out in the Gulf, but was bright and sunny right along the beach. Just come on down and enjoy! If it is overcast, it doesn't feel so hot. If it rains, go enjoy our local shops and restaurants. If we have a lightning storm, you can enjoy the spectacle of nature. Welcome to South Walton. There's plenty to do, rain or shine!
