But the rain has increased from 24" to 30" for the whole Alabama coast. The panhandle and Alabama coast is going to be bad af far as rain fall. [/quote] Another day (20-some hours) of rain yet before landfall, plus a second day of rain after landfall - trees will fall, lights will go out, dunes will wash out to sea. Gulf Shores AL looks nasty right now for a Cat 1. Amazing to watch a tropical system with little steering, hence the crawl. [/quote] Now that hurricanes sit still on the coast for days. Expect tornadoes to do the same soon. [b]HAAP says it all.[/b] [/quote] debatable. TWC showed days ago that the only steering was up around Kentucky, so as Sally comes ashore and that steering system moves further south, Sally will pick up speed (central-Alabama it looks like) and quickly move back into the Atlantic in the lower mid-Atlantic area. With no steering influence tropical systems move very slowly and wobble about a bit aimlessly, generally forward in the direction they were previously steered into- check out Sally's track the last 2 days. https://www.wunderground.com/hurricane/atlantic/2020/tropical-storm-sally She made 9 changes of direction over 2 days in the space (latitude range comparable to) from about Tampa Bay to Cedar Key FL. That's about 100 miles over land. [/quote] Did you notice 3 of the spaghetti models showed it heading back down to the gulf after 2 days of landfall? [/quote]
Original Message
Sally is forecast to slow down significantly as it approaches the coast, and this could lead to a prolonged period of rough weather for Alabama.
Look how it just sits on the gulf coast.
