Hurricane Debby

Orange lines are my attempt to curve a line. In short, the curve drops down towards the southeast.

How much do we think this will impact Valdosta? My mama is already getting stressed out. They had a hell of a time last year.
 
Once again, the GFS goes offshore and then comes back to the coast (5th run in a row), this time just S of me (furthest S yet I think) giving me TS wind gusts combined with the very heavy rain probably causing many uprooted trees. I need a generator.

0Z UKMET: LF slightly E of prior runs in W Big Bend; then to SC GA to SE of Augusta, then E/NE to NE SC, E NC, NC coast, Newfoundland; once again, UKMET moves much more quickly than GFS/Euro and gets to NC by 108…so again not the huge flood threat of GFS/Euro on this much more common path:

0Z Euro: for 1st run since the one from 48 hours ago, the model not surprisingly based on history/climo totally abandoned the come back to lower SC or GA NW move and instead is a more normal from that position NNE move from the ocean to the SC/NC border and then up the E coast to MD followed by a move offshore. It never moves even just W of due N the entire time once out of the Gulfexcept for hours 96-102, when it went barely W of due N.

That leaves only the GFS and the 0Z CMC with the funky trek NW to WNW back into the SE. I’ll be looking for it to also abandon this craziness. Let’s see what the next runs of these models do.

Corrected for CMC
