Hurricane Tracker

This is projected path up East Coast as of Wednesday.

Looks like swerving away toward the Atlantic via Maryland Eastern Shore. But others paths suggest Michael will come closer to middle of Maryland. This is CNN's

Consolation: Looks like it will miss Charleston,and other Eastern parts of South Carolina. Heavy storms are forecasted for tomorrow in Maryland.

Unlike Frances, this storm will move quickly once past the panhandle of Florida. Should zip up the East Coast.

Thanks @songbird We are out today due to the weather. I'm near Columbus GA- they said the mayor of Columbus just asked for people not to be on the road after 3 if they can help it. Just minor rain so far.

Another good site for tracking, public information and bulletins. National hurricane center from NOAA.

The focus "now" is what it is doing to the Panama City area, parts of AL! That's what we should be concerned with now!!!

We are on Marylands eastern shore. Beach forecasts are tropical storm winds and high surf. Inland, windy and rainy. If the rain and wind isn’t too bad, we may take a quick ride down to the beach to watch the surf. It usually churns like a washing machine. But it looks like its curving further south toward virginias beaches, so we will see.

@SouthernBeeStay safe! The weatherman says the worst will be here between 7 and midnight. The wind is picking up a bit here. I hope the power does not go out. I did go get some ice and charging up the phone and Ipad in case it does.

@Roni18: Stay safe. We have plenty staples, charging iPad. Just notified our newspaper will delivered by 9 pm. Thankfully we had all of our pine trees cut down. Neighbors on backside of house has pine trees but if they come down will only damage our fence and not the house. Southern Bee

Thanks for the website links to track the storm. I will be praying for all those affected by the storm.

Our schools have been cancelled for tomorrow in my part of South Carolina. So far we've just had light rain off and on all day.

@SouthernBee Thanks, they just announced that we would be out of school tomorrow over across the Alabama line. At least I won't have to stress about it if I have to stay up late for the storm. I know it was still a Cat. 3 about 50 miles inland.

@Roni18: Glad for you. I hate to be out and about when it rains. Blessed that we are retired and no appointments were scheduled for today or tomorrow. Southern Bee

@Roni18: You ok? Everyone else ok. Parts of Columbus loss power at 7:50 pm and just restored 10:10 pm. We had several battery operated lanterns. DH and I played board games. We also discussed purchasing a generator because of our age and health issues. I also forgot that we needed to purchase a weather radio.Southern Bee

Seems like this storm is moving pretty fast. We'll have rain all day tomorrow in SE PA; I think it's Michael related. Bu Sunday evening, Michael will be back across the Atlantic, closing in on Ireland.

looks like it may be moving southward of us. Am close to Chesapeake Bay Area. We are under flood watch right now. Will see what happens.

Been such a wet summer here.
