Sometime between tomorrow morning and mid-day.

None that I know of. I've got a webcam which I could set up and stream, but I'm too lazy and I wouldn't be able to set it up anywhere to get any good shots. Actually, I know know of one site with cam's set up along the beachs of the Panhandle and Big Bend, but they only update every 10 minutes, soo. http://www.beachview.com

The closer it gets to Tallahassee the closer it gets to me. I'm 30 minutes to the Northeast of Tallahassee. w00t. =D

Is that the eye trying to take shape in this shot?

Nah, Didn't join. I'm already on sooo many forums. LoL

Dark clouds rolling into southern Georgia.

Okay, if this thing comes ashore as a min. Cat 1 hurricane what kind of winds can I exect here at my house? Here's a link to about where I live... http://maps.google.com/maps?f=q&hl=en&q=Bo...7,5.361328&om=1

The next update on the storm should be out in 15-20 minutes. Can't wait to see if it's strengthened any! I'm hoping for a minimal hurricane.

Where exactly is the eye. I thougth the center of the storm was to the left of the huge blob of convection?

Georgia doesn't have a shoreline on the Gulf. ;-) They've issued flood watches for the counties to my south in the Florida big bend. Expecting flooding, even with a minimal storm surge in Apalachie Bay area.

Are 19 ft waves normal for a storm this small?

Woooo! Here comes Alberto! With every advisory release, the forecast track brings the eye closer and to my area. If this things continues to get stronger me may see some gusty winds!
