The heavens declare the glory of God;
the skies proclaim the work of his hands.
-Psalm 19:1

Do you know that God controls the clouds and makes his lightning flash?
-Job 37:15

Decisions... decisions...

I just woke up, and there is a nice couplet just outside of Dothan, AL, that is severely rain wrapped. I could get set up in position, up in Cordele for an intercept, but I probably wouldn't see anything unless it's right on top of me, so I'd have to be in the exact spot at the time of intercept to avoid major problems.In contrast, I could just wait around here, see what happens with the line and let it come my way.I probably should mull this over for a few, not too long though cause if I am going to move, the time is now.

7:49AM I really think the big event is yet to come, if the sun gets a chance at all. I think this cell will not survive all the way across GA in all this mess of rain, so going after this one rain wrapped cell would be a waste of time. I am leaning on holding tight until this afternoon, and going after whatever then. From Tally:

THE STRONGEST ACTIVITY WILL AFFECT THE PANHANDLE AND SOUTHEAST ALABAMA THIS MORNING BEFORE SHIFTING WEST EAST INTO THE BIG BEND AND GEORGIA DURING THE AFTERNOON AND EVENING.
8:30AM Looks like I made a good decision. That one cell seems to have mostly been absorbed into the big wall of rain headed this way. If we get any substantial sun to break through, we've got ourselves a ball game!!

  1. I'd stick close to where you are for later. Latest RUC Runs show a new area this afternoon right over you or just to your East.

  2. Check it out. Let this big mess of rain move out to the NE, then setup for round 2.

    I like your chances for Hail today.

  3. I agree, Mikey. Still in my PJs. We will be available after 3:30 or so, and we'll go after it. I totally agree with you!
