For those questioning the NHC. I know the track has shifted some since this initial map, but let’s give these folks some credit.

It's a shame they didn't stay with that thought instead of their fantasy path west. It's actually going to end up further east if you are looking at the line drawn down the middle.
 
Could be local bias but just having a hard time believing we won’t see 60+ mph winds in metro Atlanta. Storm is too strong and moving too fast. anywhere close to the center and east is going to feel it. Such a massive wind field.

Yeah I think if the NHC track holds, then the metro will get significant winds. If it ends up well east of the NHC track, not as much wind.

Been following along since the beginning of this storm. Kind of crazy that TWC just mentioned a left jog too

I'm just watching the satellite IR loop now, and maybe the last frame moves more NNNE instead of NNE or NE. But up until this point, it has been pretty steady NNE. In the end, it's really not going to matter all that much.

Personally I don’t think the exact path matters at this point. Close enough for some good general
Wind with some gusty stuffs. Time will tell!

Definitely not a lot of people are going to be impacted by this. I live in Jones County north of Macon and the eastern track takes the brunt off of us. Farms in south GA are going to be hit hard by this right at harvest season
 
Woth all the mesos in the eye and the irregularly shaped eye it's hard to know exact heading. Need recon fixes to know for sure
 
I haven’t said much in this thread, but the real story besides the areas in the landfall area is the escarpment from Brasstown Bald all the way up into the northern mountains of NC, truly historic rainfall is happening right now. I dare say it was almost a blessing that it has been as dry as it has and the lakes along the Savannah River basin on north into the Carolina’s are a few feet down.
