KBMX says winds are underperforming across inland areas and they expect that to continue

Amazing how different WFO's say totally different things about the same storm . I think a lot of NGA winds are a combo of wedge and Irma though not so much that combo over toward Bmx

39 mph sustained for the warning area and for the wind advisory area 20-35 with a gust up to 45 mph. this is per kbmx personnel
 
Was hoping for an impactful weather day, but mother nature can keep her cool, windy, rainy days...we have enough of these in the winter. Irma the dud (for us inland folk).
 
HSV has now dropped their tropical storm warning and replaced with qind advisory...BMX will probably follow as well.
