Weather alert for Ole Miss Game

Interesting link, pretty accurate normally but its been all over the place today. Its showing a strong cat 3 hitting in floridas big bend then falling apart pretty quickly. Not great for Mobile but not a direct hit.

The play button shows the full loop. The right or left arrows move you 6 hours at a time. Oxford time is Zulu minus 6 hours.


4-5 days out even the best models have a ton of uncertainty. Sometimes it ends up almost right where the model is showing, sometimes it ends up hundreds of miles away. That can mean the difference between hitting the peninsula or hitting Mississippi.

Oh, I know. I live a bit north of Savannah. I've grown quite used to following these stupid things. Usually with a couple days til landfall they are pretty accurate. This one has been a bit odd in how much its changed in a short time. Yesterday morning, early, they showed it at the Texas, La border, then all the way to the Apalachicola Fl area last night. Timing is the problem they have. What time it gets to a point can change everything.

Looked it up, last time Tampa took a direct hit from a hurricane was 1921.

I am clueless about them. He just said their current model showed somewhere between Tampa and Panama. Just the messenger passing alone some info that might help the ones traveling to OM next week. I hope it gets near Athens, my food plots could use some rain.

This. 4-5 days out, throwing darts on a map is just as accurate. I live in Wilmington NC and have been through 14-15 of them. They SUCK. If I lived anywhere on the Gulf Coast or Florida, I’d be stocking up on gas and water now. Start filling bath tubs with water in a day or 2

I'd use something like a waterbob so the water is potable.
 
Exactly. Try running into a 120 mph wind much less trying to throw in one. It is best the hurricane stay in my yard, we know how to handle them.
I might set a distance record with 100MPH winds, just throw it straight up in the air.

The weather just posted that the western part of Florida was where landfall was going to take place. His model showed Oxford to be out of the path.
 
Hopefully it’s not Fort Myers. Good, decent folks down there. Go hit in California or Georgia Mr. Hurricane.
 
As long as there is no lightning not sure why you can’t play football in a hurricane. Although we wouldn’t want to mess up the grass. Beautiful natural grass it is, makes ours look high school-ish.
Reminds me of some posters bringing up replacing the turf on the practice field that was dangerous when I complained about nothing extra done for football in mitch's first DECADE on the job. And we all saw the results of him using most of the money football earned on his Director's Cup chase.

Just curious, what kind of food plots do you raise in Georgia this time of year? My garden is finished, greens is about all I could grow now.

It gets pretty cold where Grumpy is. Down here close to Savannah you can have a second harvest of most crops in the fall. We might have a light freeze in late November. Over winter, if you use some crop covers you can grow a lot but mainly greens and root crops. We see 22, give or take, most years, at least for a few hours.
