We planned a long vacation weekend to Orange beach this weekend with kids out of school next Monday and Tuesday. I emailed the Management company asking them to reschedule to another date since we were in the crosshairs and they basically told me to get fricked. If I didn't show up I loose my $1500.
Destin said if we or they were in a warning then rescheduling was no problem
Basically have to wait for warning to be issued & call back
Sorry, that’s got to suck

Or your vacation into an evacuation..... however you wanna look at it

Love all these people polluting this thread with their vacation topics like this is Facebook
When did people become so narcissistic that they think people GAF about their vacation?

I’m trying to decide on Houston or Tallahassee. I’m to the east of the current center line.
Typically I would try and stay west of a storm. But it really looks like this storm is really set on a LA landfall. I’m thinking Tallahassee would be far enough east.

Recon just passed through the eye again (it's a NOAA plane so they don't necessarily always follow the standard pattern), and they found category 4 flight-level winds. An SFMR approached 115 knots, but it may be contaminated by rain, despite not being flagged for it. Extrapolated
It is clear now that Delta is making a run at a 5. The landfall/land interaction with the Yucatan is a double-edged sword. It will disrupt it some, but it will also force the eye to restructure and we will be looking at a larger storm with a bigger eye and a larger wind field in the Gulf. We need to pay attention to the "M" for a different reason other that shifts. Keep an eye on how long it stays a major hurricane and how close it gets to coast before the whatever weakening there will be starts happening. That matters a whole lot at this point.

Ok, well compared the 5 weeks I was without power, Jackson was unscathed.
True. I had 11 feet of water, some oil, and no power ever since they tore down our house. So I hear you =)

You'd think this site hadn't had hurricane threads for 15+ years.

wrong.....the sustained wind speeds at the airport were a solid Cat 1 hurricane. Gustav kicked BR's arse.
Wrong.
Gustav was bad for BR, but sustained winds never got over 55 kts. Just goes to show you how bad sustained hurricane winds actually are.

2 quality choices. I'd lean Houston because of the outer bands setting up over Fla depending how big this thing comes in
Also, easier to get back in after from the West

I truly believe it will become a 5 at some point. It however will not make landfall as a 5 nor a 4...
