If you look at this zoomed slightly up and to the right of center, there is a bat skimming the water and getting a drink in flight. They're ended up being about 4 of them and more were arriving as I left. Never saw it before. Severe drought here.
Sunset at a small Missouri pond.  Teeny tiny capture of a bat above the pond surface.  Kinda blurry

The latest Isaias forecast from NHC continues to nudge the storm east a few miles - following the AI model paths again. This puts central landfall closer to Fort Walton Beach and Destin, from Pensacola. Significantly good news for Mobile and Biloxi in these forecasts. Cat 3. #isaias #FLwx #ALwx

For Chattanooga, rain and wind start overnight tonight, getting gusty by 7am. 1 to 3 inches expected - more possible. Gusts up to 40 in the valley here, and higher in the surrounding mountains. 60+ in the Smokys.

And the 15z HRRR with a streak of due north 90mph gusts straight down the Tombigbee & Alabama Rivers at 8pm CDT. Wow.

Here is the ECMWF's highest wind gust between 8pm and 8am for Alabama. 60kts+ in a strip all the way up central Alabama past Birmingham and Tuscaloosa.

Apparently the ECMWF likes the HRRR inland winds solutions too, so I guess I have to take that more seriously. That's gusts over 60mph around Tuscaloosa, Birmingham, and Montgomery Alabama at 5am. That will be some power outages. #Alwx #isaias

Even more fun - the streaming moisture and remnants of Rachel will also help aid the first snow of the season in Montana that starts Saturday and carries through late Monday. #MTwx

I'm a big fan of the NDFD grid, but this thing needs to have a little self-respect...
NDFD forecast wind gust graphic for Saturday at 2pm.  Broad acrea of wind gusts in high 20s across MS/AL/GA, and then this weird cut out hole in northern AL of low winds with a stripe of a tropical jet to the right of the circulation.  And it looks very stupid and very discontinuous.

For Isaias, expect tropical impacts to start along the Gulf Coast Friday evening into overnight Saturday. Isaias will be moving fast at that point and won't linger. But expect I-10 to close overnight along the Gulf, and possibly I-65 in southern Alabama as well. #isaias #roadwx #alwx #mswx #flwx

He could have screamed many other names when he thought of playing baseball with his kid.

rp with your home river
The Hocking River as it runs through an artificial channel in Athens Ohio.  A little higher than average in this picture.  Picture is taken from the Stimson Avenue River gauge towards the U.S. 33 bridge and the Athens Public Library and soccer fields. the character of the river is pretty flat here except at White's mill (not shown).  Green non-productive fields of grass on either side of the river with a bike path on the left (north) bank.  One time I went boffing here and accidentally knocked a guy in the river.  Haha, oops.

The debate... if you can call it that
I talk about how factory owners will report and deport any illegal who tries to complain about unfair labor practices,  but if they couldn't do it,  it would make the case to hire 'locals' better.  and i provide examples as well as historic context of Dalton Georgia.

"So you encourage illegal immigration from 3rd world countries over homegrown Americans"

jfc what a fucking idiot.
