Quick pre-bedtime post....

First of all, Ike has exploded in intensity, and is a beautiful hurricane to look at. Textbook really. Ike will likely be a problem for someone in the US down the road.

Hanna is getting its act together, and I think the organization will continue. Landfall still looks to be on the South Carolina or North Carolina coast. All folks with interests from Charleston up through the Outer Banks need to pay very close attention to Hanna.

I will be back in the weather office dark and early tomorrow morning....will have some fresh information for you as the morning rolls along....

Thanks for reading!
