How on earth do they think they will have that football game in Tuscaloosa at 6:30 on Saturday evening. Looks like the storm only moves 150-200 miles in 12 hours- straight over Tuscaloosa



Well, it has got to be done!

Honestly…can you imagine the chaos with people trying to evacuate and that kind of shite?

Yea I'm going to Biloxi for something different this weekend and that's still on as well. Looks like they're all telling this hurricane to go frick itself.

I know the Windfinder app is probably not a great forecaster but the graphics on it's map are cool.

To me anyway.

I drove through the “storm” in June from Atlanta to Louisiana and it was NOT a fun drive. I could barely see from roughly Birmingham to Hattiesburg.

Center of cone at landfall shift on this advisory was 6 miles east from previous advisory at 4 AM but is now about 9 miles west of the advisory at 10 PM last night.

The current track is across Perdido Key but with a ~15 mile wide eye, the whole area from about Gulf Shores to Gulf Breeze would potentially be in the eyewall.

Eye diameter can and probably will change over time and will determine where the worst surge will be and which areas will get a 'break' with the eye and which will miss the eye and always be in the eyewall (worst case).

No way that game gets played in T-Town Saturday unless this storm goes poof.

They really want to play it on time I think, if there’s any type of feasible window to kickoff at 630 or even delay it that evening I think they play.

Like a drunk trying to make it home from the FloraBama to their condo at 2am this thing is going to wander a bit it sounds like.

It goes in waves when the storm is still a little ways out. Usually, when the updates come out, the conversation gets serious. During the lull in between runs, people go off the rails.


Always gets like this once the track gets basically solved. Details too far away to really figure out.

Plus, Ill note, Ive seen calls and calls for a storm update from people. I gave one in the middle, a small one granted, but no attention.

Call people idiots about climate change and got 20 upvotes/downvotes. Revealed preferences and what not.

They have expected this since the beginning. Then, shear will start to rip it apart. They're just acting like this is new news.

The weather itself will likely be improved by game time. Might be some lingering showers and wind, but probably nothing significant.

The question is whether there are wind spread power outages and trees down.

Yeah figuring out logistics for Bama-UGA from 30A with this storm tracking up I65 Saturday AM is not looking fun.

New cone. Tropical storm watch expanded well inland on this advisory.

Dude on the local news here said it was still on, but they would be keeping constant tabs on the weather and would hold events until they have to stop (which looks like it will be tomorrow night. No mention of whether they will pick back up after the storm passes tomorrow night.

Opel took basically the same route back in the 1990s. As far as Montgomery (which is not that far from Tuscaloosa), they got 90 mph winds, massive power outages, and tornadoes.

It's supposed to go up that way Saturday morning. They're not playing this game Saturday night.

Does anyone know if they contra flow I-10 during hurricane evacuations? My daughter and mother are at a wedding in Orange Beach this evening and plan to get on the road back to Baton Rouge early in the morning. I know they will contra flow Baldwin Expressway, but wasn't sure if they would I-10 back toward Mobile.

Thanks
