Last night when I went to bed, Tropical Storm Hanna's aim had once again shifted towards Savannah. The 5 day forecast track put it making landfall very close to Savannah before moving northward. This morning as I check the forecast, the track has shifted back to the central South Carolina Coast. This erratic nature of the forecast track is why we must be vigilant regarding Tropical Storm Hanna. As the
CEMA News Releases mention, minor changes in each advisory can result in major changes to the forecast track.
I don't know whether it is related to TS Hanna, but NOAA 49, a National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration Gulfstream G-IV arrived at Savannah International Airport last night.
We can't ignore the threat of Hanna, but we must also pay attention to
TS Ike and
TS Josephine, which are brewing and gaining strength in the Atlantic.
