Larry Mowry Move Quotations

We are stuck in a blocking pattern. We have been dominated by a ridge of high pressure that blocks the movement of storms into the area.

The projected path of movement swings it away from Central Florida and then curves it toward the Panhandle by the time we get to Monday with a projected landfall roughly between Apalachicola and New Orleans. That is the uncertainty we still have with the next landfall. But the path of Katrina takes it toward the Panhandle and well away from Central Florida.

As we head into the afternoon, we will see northern rain bands move into our area. That will produce brief heavy downpours and gusty winds. It is going to be similar to what happened Thursday in terms of seeing some sunshine during points of the day and then other times seeing a real heavy downpour with winds kicking up.
