Tropical Hurricane Nate

Nate doesn't look that bad. Still some organization issues but not the steaming turd it was 24 hours ago

coming together, also i was reading that Nate is slowing down some. Not good if so
 
Sustained. Glad Alabama already declared state of emergency because that would mean some nasty winds for the state. Georgia is going to get it too, as the center clips the corner of the state per latest track.
Like I said earlier, I think this will be worse than Irma for AL and parts of GA. But it seems like the media is not really giving this as much attention as Irma. Stores are not jam packed like they were for Irma, despite the fact this may be worse for our area.

Me being in SW Bama it should get ugly here also

Definitely could be, expecially if thus can ramp up to a cat 2-3. Then AL will be dealing with an inner core still intact like Opal.

...TROPICAL STORM WATCH IN EFFECT...

A Tropical Storm Watch means Tropical storm wind conditions are
possible somewhere within this area and within the next 48 hours

* LOCATIONS AFFECTED
- Ashland

* WIND
- LATEST LOCAL FORECAST: Equivalent Tropical Storm force wind
- Peak Wind Forecast: 30-40 mph with gusts to 55 mph
- Window for Tropical Storm force winds: Sunday morning until
Sunday afternoon

- CURRENT THREAT TO LIFE AND PROPERTY: Moderate
- Emergency planning should include a reasonable threat for
strong tropical storm force wind of 58 to 73 mph.
- To be safe, earnestly prepare for the potential of
significant wind impacts. Efforts should now be underway to
secure all properties.
- Dangerous wind is possible. Failure to adequately shelter
may result in injury.

- POTENTIAL IMPACTS: Significant

* FLOODING RAIN
- LATEST LOCAL FORECAST:
- Peak Rainfall Amounts: 4-8 inches, with locally higher
amounts

- CURRENT THREAT TO LIFE AND PROPERTY: Elevated
- Emergency planning should include a reasonable threat for
minor flooding where peak rainfall totals are near amounts
conducive for localized flash flooding and rapid inundation.
- To be safe, prepare for the potential of limited flooding
rain impacts.
- Localized flooding is possible. If flood related watches
and warnings are issued, heed recommended actions.

- POTENTIAL IMPACTS: Limited

* TORNADO
- LATEST LOCAL FORECAST:
- Situation is unfavorable for tornadoes

- CURRENT THREAT TO LIFE AND PROPERTY: None

That is a question that I have been wondering as well. Maybe some of those with better expertise can chime in on this.
Without looking into the soundings a wild guess is they are expecting a large rain shield and the better tornado threat to be displaced east into Ga where the precip becomes more banded and you can generate some instability. Just a thought

I love how the models transition nate from a lopsided to the east system to a left of track heavy rain event when it interacts with the trough. Flipping the proverbial bird to me

BMX may need to adjust the greatest wind impacts further W jmho I think NHC may shift back little W with track also based off the last couple runs movement is more NNE vs hard NE turn...will just have to see what happens when they do the new graphics update little later this evening

Ok gotcha well maybe another 20-30mi W if these models continue to show more of a westward component want to ride along the 20/59 corridor or just west of that it seems and not hooking hard right
