Where is all this wind coming from?

Idalia - counter-clockwise flow around the cyclone has kicked-in. Not good fire conditions.

Anytime a TC is to our east, it’s gonna create fire conditions around here cuz of the backside dry northerly winds.

Won't happen but I like Joe Bastardi's model for Idelia. Only way to get rain here.

Mehh, shift that 100 miles SW then maybe. Most of us would get nothing with that track.
That's initial landfall around Mobile! Bastardi's out of his gourd again.

101°F...but the DP is in the 50s, so the heat index is also 101°F.

What are the odds of the 20-30% chance of rain this weekend completely evaporating like every other opportunity?
