They must expect the Tampa Area and Gulf Coast to get the worst of the Storm if it's going to follow the usual Meteor Route.

Hope yall stay Safe!

The Weather service hurricane site is suggesting that the storm is going to hook west as it goes north, affecting Tennesee. Kentucky, downstate Illinois, and Missouri. Won't be a hurricane up there, but I would expect some nasty floods. To all in the path of this storm, take care.

It will likely be a TS even by Atlanta. It is a very fast mover which will make landfall clise to Cat 4, so won’t have time to wind down.

Well, that explains why the Crescent was cancelled.
