No thanks bradford, one year camping at Wassaw I had the pleasure returning after a storm snuck up on us with 8-12ft seas. In Ossabaw sound it was 6-9. My brother and brother in-law haven't been back since.

bc, there have been several but scattered out in about 30 year spans.
The most recent was David in 79, 90mph winds, basically a piss ant. About 1/4 of Savannah was without power for 10 days.
The worst one was 1893, modern classification was a cat4.
One that is always brought up was 1898 when a small storm passed over Tybee, most of the island was underwater. This one had almost no warning.
The most curious was the one in 1947, the government tried cloud seeding with dry ice in order to dissipate it. Well it changed direction immediately and came ashore, they haven't tried that again.

Now they are predicting 104mph Friday morning and to come ashore about at Charleston SC late Friday night. bc, yall need to be watching too! Hope the eastern seaboard had a good Labor Day caues this weekend is out as far as boating weather.
Oh and not to run out of stuff, there is another one pokeing it's head out. Basically so far following the same tract.

The 2AM Sunday prediction is 104mph.
