2nd potential US landfall right at the GA/SC border in this run... maybe a bit more south into GA

Does the 12z GFS have it hitting Atlanta as a CAT 1?

I would have to think that Jose will be shipped out to sea?

High tide vs. low tide is one thing. What tends to be forgotten is the water pushed ahead of the storm, that is there and that tide is added to.
I don't think the Katrina problems have ever been addressed. The Wolf river in back of the inner barrier islands in Mississippi had water pushed into it, and then more from Katrina...and that lead to (you guessed it) flooding where it had never flooded before.
Pontchartrain had a massive accumulation of water even through the eye passed over miles to the east. Remember how so many of our friends breathed a sigh of relief the day after the storm, and THEN the levees broke. Not from the storm but from structural weakness (substructural weakness for 17th st canal).
There are some inlets in Florida that have similar patterns for potential problems. That's unavoidable because of the nature of the islands and inland swamps that came before people.

I'll worry if the Marines evacuate Parris Island.

That does not look good, though my neighborhood didn't flood with Matthew or the 100 year floods. If I'm going to lose it all though, I just hope the winds destroy my house before the flooding does. Then insurance will cover me.

All the crazy development in Charleston since 1989. Tons of vulnerable areas.

Yes, and Sunny Point ammo north of Charleston. A lot of military in the Carolinas, more so than I ever knew.

Lots of slow moving traffic everywhere. I'd imagine, with as many people that are evacuating, Atlanta traffic may get even worse. A lot of people evacuating from Savannah will probably head this way.

From that picture what would you project the outcome to be for Johns Island around the area of Maybank and Main?

Nuke school is in Goose Creek, SC. Probably 1500 military personnel there plus other various installations around Charleston.

Jose is a long ways off from impacting the US mainland, if it does at all. Might not be a bad idea to keep the conversation in this thread about Irma to prevent any confusion.
