Hello!
Either you have not registered on this site yet, or you are registered but have not logged in. In either case, you will not be able to use the full functionality of this site until you have registered, and then logged in after your registration has been approved.
Registration is FREE, so please register so you can participate instead of remaining a lurker....
Please note that the information requested during registration will be used to determine your legitimacy as a participant of this site. As such, any information you provide that is determined to be false, inaccurate, misleading, or highly suspicious will result in your registration being rejected. This is designed to try to discourage as much as possible those spammers and scammers that tend to plague sites of this nature, to the detriment of all the legitimate members trying to enjoy the features this site provides for them.
Of particular importance is the REQUIREMENT that you provide your REAL full name upon registering. Sorry, but this is not like other sites where anonymity is more the rule.
Also your TRUE location is important. If the location you enter in your profile field does not match the location of your registration IP address, then your registration will be rejected. As such, I strongly urge registrants to avoid using a VPN service to register, as they are often used by spammers and scammers, and as such will be blocked when discovered when auditing new registrations.
Sorry about all these hoops to jump through, but I am quite serious about blocking spammers and scammers at the gate on this site and am doing the very best that I can to that effect. Trust me, I would rather be doing more interesting things with my time, and wouldn't be making this effort if I didn't think it was worthwhile.

Just saw it this morning, definitely looks like it's coming your way. What I saw was category 1, hope it stays that way.

The forecast tracks I see on VentuSky are showing it moving further to the west between Texas and Louisiana.
Unfortunately, when a hurricane moves into the Gulf of Mexico, it makes landfall somewhere either in the USA or Mexico. I don't think I have ever seen one just dissipate over water, or turn around and head south and then out into the Atlantic.
Hopefully for everyone impacted the most it will strengthen to will be a category 1 storm.

Was planning a field herping trip with my daughter and her friend's but all we are going to do now is watch the weather.

Yes, given the last few weeks I wouldn't take even a category 1 lightly. I'd imagine most of the issues would be storm surge on the coast, but you just never know.

Be careful what you wish for.... Cyclone Winston in Feb 2016 went past us (as a Cat 3) in Fiji, hit Samoa, picked up speed , turned completely around and came back at us from totally the wrong direction, and as a Cat 5. No one had ever seen anything like it.
(Note that Cyclones are just southern hemisphere Hurricanes, but as such they rotate in the opposite direction, so their normal path of travel is from the north west to the south east - no one expected a cyclone to come FROM the east)

Well, the latest forecast track is being consistent with the last few I looked at in that the forecast track is gradually moving further and further west of the Tallahassee area. Not that this is what the people in coastal Alabama, Mississippi, Louisiana and Texas want to see, though.
