| OT Hurricane rolling in for UGA game weekend?

[Brandon Van de Graaff]

Models for the last few days have been pointing to a hurricane forming and hitting somewhere along the Gulf Coast at the end of the week... thus far, the models have only gained confidence (in terms of there being a hurricane), though it's still early on the when/where/strength. But there is at least a reasonable chance that a tropical system might impact the Bama v. UGA game as of now. Just a heads up for those that haven't seen or heard about it yet, and those traveling to the game from out of town. In the next few days, it's likely to start making some headlines.






The good news is, while it's still a crapshoot, the latest models are trending further east (and sooner in some cases)...

The local forecast?

Regional. They are just showing under 20% for game. Pretty low.

Based on that and their accuracy. Take rain gear.

Just have to be patient and see how this thing develops as the week goes on.

This will likely make the South Alabama/LSU game a bit more interesting.

Models keep showing it going more east and hitting sooner... if that keeps up, all should be fine in Tuscaloosa...

The best thing about those models is it will give you an idea how to lay out pasta on a meal.

The name will be Helene (pronounced heh-LEEN).

Why?

Is it not a practice to teach this any longer? The 'e', following the 'n,' make the preceding 'e' be pronounced ... freakin' common grammar rules here.

Literally, are there people who are going to say "Helen?"

Sure has changed
But
Is still early.

It is tracking further east and being on the west side of it is a good sign the weather won't affect TTown. UGA may have some travel issues though, unless they leave early.

They are expecting this to hit tomorrow so by game time it should be cleared up.

As far as schools in the path. This is a bye week for the gators. FSU has a game in Texas tomorrow. How those two campuses will fare is anyone’s guess .
