Tropical Hurricane Francine

Just as long as Atlanta and the interior SE gets a lot of rain, way too dry for way too long.

I'm glad the areas west are definitely getting it because they are very dry as well. I'm not overly convinced on this for us yet, we have been missed to much this summer I just can't bring myself to believe anything. The forecasted totals here have been cut over the past couple of days as we really won't know anything until we are in the short term with the high resolutions models. It feels like we will be lucky to get an inch at this point, I hope its more. Most places have had barely an inch or two since July, and I honestly don't know how we were only D0 last week.

Interesting. FFC sees it fizzling out in central MO and drifting SE through the weekend:

Francine`s northward advance will become blocked by the ridge on
Saturday, and it will struggle to make it further north than central
Missouri. At this point, the storm will dissipate, with its
extratropical remnants forecast to gradually drift southeastward
through the weekend. With our area remaining in the moist airmass on
the east side of the remnants and dewpoints lingering in the upper
60s to low 70s, scattered to numerous diurnally enhanced
thunderstorms are expected through the weekend. Temperatures will
also gradually climb through the weekend, with highs increasing by a
couple of degrees each day.

sounds about right, once its on land she's gonna fade fast.
 
From Mike Maze at WRAL:

The latest run of the HRRR model(high resolution rapid refresh) now shows the center of Francine moving over Lake Ponchartrain and thus impacting New Orleans with higher winds. We will watch to see if this trend continues.
 
4pm NHC - leaving themselves some room to make a change if this east shift continues.....

"While there is little change to
the track forecast scenario since the last advisory, the track
guidance has again shifted to the east, most notably between
12-48 h. Based on this change, the forecast track during that
period is again nudged a little to the east. The new track lies
just to the left of the various consensus models."
 
Oh Lord.....
