Not a favorable path for development and the models are pretty consistant.

However if it pulls to the North it could be very intresting. North Carolina has had a bad history with storms begining with the letter "F" I've been forecasting on the east coast for 10 years now (7 in Florida). I have learned you never turn your back on a storm.

Even here near (KCOF) people are flocking to stores to buy batteries water etc......at our local Publix they absolutley had no water available,as quick as they could stock it people were buying it....anyways its good to know that people are aware and taking the right precautions even here on the space coast.Our National guard is standing by ready for anything this storm may bring...anyways I am sure Patrick AFB will be busy tommorow getting prepped (just in case)..we will see......?

We had a school quiz on news and i knew the answer to where is Hurrican Fay heading because of this thread.

mr.bean · Post by **mr.bean** » 19 Aug 2008, 17:36

National Hurricane Center says there will be a high pressure building in the Atlantic soon, and the storm is gonna move west close to Jacksonville. From the sea. They say it should reach Eglin, Hurlburt, and Tyndall on Sun, but becuase of the distance the storm has to come here, I think it might dissapate before it comes here.
