Tropical Storm Andrea

[momrids6]

My pool is just getting ready to go in..lol.. Cleaned the French drains

For some reason- it seems to be "necessary" for us S. Georgians to clean our pools before storm, before half a tree falls in them...

Sub Base is closed...found the scanner and oiled up the chainsaw; being subjected to an Arrested Development marathon... ready up there?

Discussion and 48-hour outlook
------------------------------
at 500 pm edt...2100 utc...the center of tropical storm andrea was
located near latitude 29.5 north...longitude 83.4 west. Andrea is
moving toward the northeast near 17 mph...28 km/h...and this motion
is expected to continue with an increase in forward speed during the
next 24 to 48 hours. On the forecast track...the center of andrea
will make landfall in the florida big bend region shortly. After
landfall...andrea will move northeastward near the east coast of
the united states through saturday.

Reports from an air force reserve hurricane hunter aircraft indicate
that maximum sustained winds are near 65 mph...100 km/h...with
higher gusts. The storm should weaken after landfall...and andrea
should lose its tropical characteristics by saturday as it moves
through the eastern united states.

from the center. The noaa automated station at cedar key florida
recently reported 10-minute winds of 41 mph...67 km/hr...and a gust
of 56 mph...91 km/hr.

The latest minimum central pressure reported by the hurricane hunter
aircraft is 993 mb...29.32 inches.


Hazards affecting land
----------------------
storm surge...the combination of a storm surge and the tide will
cause normally dry areas near the coast to be flooded by rising
waters. The water could reach the following heights above ground
if the peak surge occurs at the time of high tide...

Tampa bay northward to aucilla river...2 to 4 ft
florida west coast south of tampa bay...1 to 2 ft
flagler beach north to cape charles light...1 to 2 ft

the deepest water will occur along the immediate coast near and to
the south of the florida landfall location. Surge-related flooding
depends on the relative timing of the surge and the tidal cycle...
And can vary greatly over short distances. For information specific
to your area...please see products issued by your local national
weather service office.

Rainfall...andrea is expected to produce total rain accumulations of
3 to 6 inches over much of the florida peninsula...eastern parts of
the florida panhandle...southeastern georgia...and eastern south
carolina...with isolated maximum amounts of 8 inches possible.
Total rain accumulations of 2 to 4 inches are also expected along
the eastern seaboard from eastern north carolina through downeast
maine.

Wind...tropical storm conditions are occurring along portions of the
west coast of the florida peninsula. These conditions will
gradually spread northeastward along the united states east coast
during the next 24 to 36 hours.
