Anonymous Coward (OP) User ID: 78689367 United States 07/31/2020 05:17 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Coastal track to Boston has been out for some time. It's trying to move left and why the Euro-model is landfall in southern FL. Basically they are saying if it strengthens it makes its way up the coast with perhaps landfall in NC - weaker storm southern FL and somewhere in between puts landfall in the mid-Atlantic below NC somewhere. It's going to be up in the air for a while yet...maybe into tomorrow morning, which is a bummer because it's eye will be at southern FL latitude late tomorrow night/early Sunday morning. Once the storm clears FL, GA and SC all the cities along the coast and slightly inland up to New England will get considerable rainfall and some amount of coastal storm surge. |

It's barely a hurricane now. 75 mph winds. Depending on the source it's moving along at 13 to 16 mph. It has slowed from 20 mph yesterday. Warm waters ahead ... we'll all have to wait and see. |

Thanks for this. I know it's no guarantee, but I really hope it doesn't intensify. |

I can power everything I need EXCEPT THE A/C! Luckily I live on a hill so no flooding here but if u are in the flood prone area get a 30 gallon trash bag fill it 1/4 way with water and tie top to the doorknob it works just like a sandbag! |
Anonymous Coward User ID: 79194761 United States 07/31/2020 06:22 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Actually, the storm is lopsided and has shearing dry air from the north side. Isaias could drop dead by the time it supposed to reach south FL. I'm calling it, in fact. Deader than a door nail. You read it here first. Well maybe not completely dead, but almost no rain and winds of 20 mph on land tops. Higher up at 1,500 meters the wind might be 50 mph but who cares unless you're a bird. This prediction was made when the storm was strengthening, so I'm doublin' down! |

Florida may be spared the hurricane force wind field but will likely get the tropical winds near coastal regions. Strange as it seems it could still make land in FL but for now the expectation is South Carolina. He's slowed forward motion to 10 mph which may not be a good sign. Isaias will need to start turning around 11am or noon EST. Next update coming then. |

This prediction was made when the storm was strengthening, so I'm doublin' down! What was predicted is coming true like a bawss! Isaias is being surrounded by lots of dry air which is the death of any hurricane! Who's your Daddy!! As Rush Limbaugh might say (way too often) don't doubt me. Listen to your uncle.
