Tropical Storm Fay...
 
Looks like it's going to curve West after moving up the Florida
peninsula and stay over Central Georgia for a while.

That might help Lanier out a little.

According to the latest projected path, the eye is expected to pass us
just a bit to the southeast. Better than this mornings path, the 8:00
'dot' was just about right over my house.

The *dot* is over our house now. Being 50 miles north or Orlando is
shouldn't be too bad.

I doubt there will be a "center" of this storm. It is on our local
radar now and it just looks like a lot of rain to me. We are right
down the middle too (Estero)
40 minutes after it went over Key West the Weather Channel guy was
standing out in the sunshine.
This is the first thing to come here in 3 years so they are hyping it
up. I think it is a mistake because the next time we get the real deal
people will blow off the warnings.


I fear as you do in your last line. Too much hype, not enough blow.

We need the storm to come straight up the state and then STOP over N
Georgia.
This is an interesting storm. I was just looking at Havana and Key
West radar - there appears to be a northerly wall building, but there
doens't seem to be any convection south and not a lot of feeder bands.
Looking at the individual cell tracks, there doesn't appear to be any
closure to the wall - low pressure, yeah, but no "eye" if you will.

I think, and being an amateur at this which means it's probably
bullfeathers, that the southerly wind shear at 30-40K feet was
stronger than they anticipated which is ripping the storm apart.
Well, forecast that son of bitch to stop over N. GA.


Screw N. Georgia.

I want it back out in the Atlantic then up the East Coast right up
Fisher's Island Sound so I can get from great pictures from Watch
Hill. :)


Screw you and your silly photography.

I doubt you will get much of this in Hotlanta. They do have it hooking
back into Georgia around Brunswick but if what I am seeing here, there
is not much water in this. It is just drizzling in Estero at 0100EDT

http://www.nhc.noaa.gov/refresh/grap...?5day#contents

It could hook out back into the Gulf - unlikely though.

From a historical perspective, it seems to be following the same track
as a storm in 1911.

Yeah, a few inches of rain in the Lake Lanier affective area means
quite a lot to the lake, BUT, as of this morning, they are saying that
about half of the computer models now have it going out to sea
instead, and we may actually get.....nothing!

This storm reminds me of one of the same in 1972 that went to western
NY and dumped and dumped rain, causing major flooding and damage.
Whole towns were just deluged...

About the same here, a couple of minor power hits, no significant wind

Take a trip down to June Lake and do the June Lake Loop. Very nice photo
views. Also a day trip over to Hot Creek and the hatchery and then up the
road a little is the geologic thermal pool area. Interesting. Also some
neat shots to be had of the Tufa formations of Mono Lake. Good view of the
lake in High Plains Drifer. Shot on the shore of the lake. Tiger Bar in
June Lake is good for dining.

This is an interesting storm. I was just looking at Havana and Key
West radar - there appears to be a northerly wall building, but
there
doens't seem to be any convection south and not a lot of feeder
bands.
Looking at the individual cell tracks, there doesn't appear to be
any
closure to the wall - low pressure, yeah, but no "eye" if you will.


I think, and being an amateur at this which means it's probably
bullfeathers, that the southerly wind shear at 30-40K feet was
stronger than they anticipated which is ripping the storm apart.
Well, forecast that son of bitch to stop over N. GA.


Screw N. Georgia.


I want it back out in the Atlantic then up the East Coast right up
Fisher's Island Sound so I can get from great pictures from Watch
Hill. :)


Screw you and your silly photography.


Did I tell you I am taking a trip a 9 day trip to Yosemite and Eastern
Sierra in Oct.?- Hide quoted text -

Very cool!! Yosemite is nice, but crowded. Make SURE you get to Tioga
Pass, then go around to Bodie, a ghost town with a colorful past:

And don't forget to do a lot of B/W photography, ala Ansel Adams!

Take a trip down to June Lake and do the June Lake Loop. Very nice photo
views. Also a day trip over to Hot Creek and the hatchery and then up the
road a little is the geologic thermal pool area. Interesting. Also some
neat shots to be had of the Tufa formations of Mono Lake. Good view of the
lake in High Plains Drifer. Shot on the shore of the lake. Tiger Bar in
June Lake is good for dining.- Hide quoted text -

June Lake looks cool!

Was the lake Power Bait was invented and tested in. They stayed in the same
campground we do, the Pine Cliff. Was up there about 3 weeks ago. Flash
floods south of Mammoth and one night in Tuolumne Meadows. Rain and hail
for about 3 hours. Was terrible for the tent campers. Lots of sleeping
bags, etc drying the next day. We abandoned our screen room to get in the
truck camper. Heated up a can of Bushes Beans for dinner, and played
dominoes. We make it up there once or twice a year. Take the Kayak as is
easier than towing the boat. And the lakes are small. Lots of times I
float tube. Much more laid back than the next town down. Yuppieville
Mammoth. But a great ski mountain.

All you need is a plane ticket and you are there. I understand the
workshop is open to everyone except Olympus users. ;)

I decided it was time to reread
http://www.kenrockwell.com/nikon/d20...sers-guide.pdf

If you haven't read this before it is a user friendly version of the
owners manual.


Nope, hadn't seen it. It is being printed as we speak. Looks like a very
handy, brief reference. Thanks a lot.

Now, how again does one sign up for this workshop?

If I tied that in with the cruise, I could end up spending *lots* of money!

Thanks for the link.


JohnH,
I mean this in the very best way, but you are a FOOL, just tell her it
is a cruise, and then when you get there plead ignorance. "I don't know
how the travel agency screwed this up".

There is no charge for these words of wisdom. "It is always better to
ask for forgiveness, than to ask for permission".

Send me some photos when you come back. ;)

Oh, so when the plane taking us to 'Seattle' ends up in 'Anchorage', it's
the travel agencies fault?

I think I'm starting to understand. My wife knows how to shoot, you know!

She can't bring the guns with her due to airline restrictions, so you
are safe.
