    Very off topic, but Prayers for those in it's path as it seems sure to cause massive damage both along the Carolina coast and with inland flooding. It was expected to be a Cat. 3 and it now seems possible it will be a cat. 5 before it lands. It's also expected to dump massive amounts of rain inlandas well. I well remember the worst natural disaster in NC history came from a tropical storm that stalled and dumped rain like this is expected to.

    This may not be so off topic now. It looks like it could head towards UGA now. It could very much change the weather for the game come Saturday night.

    Living in Richmond, original plans to go to the Ohio game at UVA, a mother-in-law in Virginia Beach and our Daughter in Athens, I have been tracking the ten day forecast in all of the regions for several days, I have come to the conclusion they have pretty much stopped updating those local pages.

    It appears we'll have some wind and maybe some rain by Saturday night, the worst might come Sunday.

    schools closed, a lot of highways are changed to one-way, I just picked up 18# of wings and pork ribs, large case of water from costco, I have 7 bags of charcoal, working from home the rest of the week

    all that I am missing is a bottle of bourbon and then I will be good for the weekend, with or without power

    I've got a 2 burner Coleman stove, battery operated lights, dry food and Cave Spring bubbles up a few hundred yards from my house.

    The storm looks less menacing than it did on Tuesday but I'm sure all of you recall the flood caused by a tropical storm that stalled back in the 1990s over mid-Georgia. Flooding could still be a huge problem for millions of people.

    The blizzard tracked a bit north of Greenville, the ice storm came the next winter.
    I did some hiking from Jones Gap to Cesar's Head after the blizzard, the snow wasn't quite as deep as where you were or here in NW Georgia, but there was 20 inches or so to wade thru.
    I lived outside of Asheville from 2001 till Oct 2008, it's my favorite place in the east.

    So let me guess, WC stands for Western Carolina.

    Nope William and an undisclosed middle name.

    Cooter from the Dukes of Hazard
