Hopefully not everybody is leaving with me in the middle of the night. Trying to get my route together back to NOLA.
26 up to Cola then via Augusta/Atlanta
vs
95 to Jacksonville then 10 (my usual preferred)
vs
backroads to somewhere

95L is getting that look and it might be sooner rather than later.

I'm not going to read through nearly 200 pages... would someone please let me know what Peej predicted?
He didn't, making the forecast a lot more challenging.

I honestly hope he's learned his lesson and stays away from these threads.

This may make some people feel better...,
“Class I” buildings at the Brunswick Power Plant “are designed to withstand 300-mph tornado winds,” according to a 2004 report from the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (pdf). “The nominal plant grade results in 2 feet of water depth surrounding the plant during maximum surge conditions, and all of the safety-related structures are waterproofed to an elevation of 22 feet,” the report said.

I'd go from ATL to Montgomery to Mobile on in
Should only take 7 or so hours (from Atlanta to New Orleans)

Any idea where Issac is predicted to go long range?

The Euro with a coastal stall now.
Not that I'd want to see that happen, but highlights how the steering just disappears near landfall.
And the fricking kicker:

We drove from Durham to Jackson today. Empty roads. Nobody I know from the triangle is leaving. Better safe than sorry!

Many people took Peej's prediction about the Baton Rouge flood event as just an afternoon rain spritzer. I'm really surprised he still made weather predictions after that event.

Euro is...well, here is Euro at 120 hrs

I am genuinely curious what they are going to do to keep the rods cool in event of power failure.
Back up generators and pumps run on diesel.
Fukishima had these as well, but they were located at ground level and were flooded.
Hopefully this plant is smarter and the back-ups are located at an elevated position.

12z Euro going with the stall right on the coast. This might be a case that a stronger 95L is actually a good thing. The upper level outflow from 95L might aid the ridge over the SE just enough to keep Florence from driving inland?

Assuming it doesn't find a path inland eventually.

Good move. The will beer will be cold. The a/c will be cool. The College football will be on TV.
