DISCUSSION AND 48-HOUR OUTLOOK
------------------------------
At 700 AM CDT (1200 UTC), the center of Tropical Storm Cindy was
located near latitude 30.5 North, longitude 93.7 West. Cindy is
moving toward the north near 12 mph (19 km/h), and a turn toward the
north-northeast is expected later today, followed by a turn
toward the northeast on Friday. On the forecast track, Cindy
will move into southeastern Arkansas early Friday, and into
Tennessee later on Friday.

Maximum sustained winds are near 40 mph (65 km/h) with higher gusts.
Continued weakening is forecast during the next 48 hours, and Cindy
should weaken to a tropical depression later this morning, and
become a remnant low tonight.

Tropical-storm-force winds extend outward up to 70 miles (110 km)
to the southeast of the center.

The estimated minimum central pressure is 994 mb (29.36 inches).


HAZARDS AFFECTING LAND
----------------------
RAINFALL: Cindy is expected to produce rain accumulations of 3 to 6
inches with isolated maximum amounts up to 12 inches over eastern
Texas, western and central Louisiana, and southern and eastern
Arkansas through Friday morning. Additional rainfall amounts of 2
to 4 inches with isolated maximum amounts of 8 inches over southern
Mississippi, southern and central Alabama, and extreme western
Florida Panhandle are expected through Friday morning. This
rainfall could cause life-threatening flash flooding in these areas.

Rainfall is expected to begin and expand across parts of the
Tennessee and Ohio valleys. Rainfall amounts of 1 to 2 inches with
isolated maximum amounts of 4 inches are expected through Friday
morning.

WIND: Tropical storm conditions are currently affecting portions of
the Tropical Storm Warning area. These conditions should subside
in a few hours.

STORM SURGE: Inundation of 1 to 3 feet above ground level is
expected along the coast in portions of the Tropical Storm Warning
area. Inundation of 1 to 3 feet above ground level is also possible
elsewhere along the coast from southeastern Louisiana to the western
Florida Panhandle in areas of strong onshore winds.

TORNADOES: A few tornadoes are possible through tonight from the
lower Mississippi and Tennessee Valley regions to the central Gulf
Coast.

DISCUSSION AND 48-HOUR OUTLOOK
------------------------------
At 1000 AM CDT (1500 UTC), the center of Tropical Depression Cindy
was located near latitude 31.0 North, longitude 93.5 West. The
depression is moving toward the north near 13 mph (20 km/h), and a

a turn toward the northeast on Friday. On the forecast track, Cindy
or its remnants will move into southeastern Arkansas early Friday,

Maximum sustained winds are near 35 mph (55 km/h) with higher gusts.
Additional weakening is forecast and the depression is expected to
become a remnant low by Friday if not sooner.

The estimated minimum central pressure is 997 mb (29.44 inches).


HAZARDS AFFECTING LAND
----------------------
RAINFALL: Cindy is expected to produce rain accumulations of 3 to 6
inches with isolated maximum amounts up to 8 inches over extreme
eastern Texas, Louisiana, and southern and eastern Arkansas
through Friday morning. Additional rainfall amounts of 2 to 4
inches with isolated maximum amounts of 8 inches over southern
Mississippi, southern and central Alabama, and extreme western
Florida Panhandle are expected through Friday morning. This may
bring storm total rainfall in excess of 15 inches in some isolated
locations. This rainfall could cause life-threatening flash flooding
in these areas.

Heavy rainfall will expand across the Tennessee and Ohio valleys
today and across the central Appalachians Friday into Saturday.
Rainfall amounts of 2 to 4 inches with isolated maximum amounts of
6 inches are expected through Friday morning.

WIND: Gusts of tropical storm force in a few squalls are still
possible mainly to the east of the depression.

STORM SURGE: Inundation of 1 to 3 feet above ground level is still
possible along the northern Gulf of Mexico coast in areas of strong
onshore winds.

TORNADOES: A few tornadoes are possible through tonight from the
lower Mississippi and Tennessee Valley regions to the central Gulf
Coast.

I know that Huntsville is full of rocket and missile scientists and you would think that such smart people could drive in rain... but you would be sadly mistaken.

I'm down on the coast with mom helping clean condos, and apparently I picked an amazing week to come down as it had nothing to do with Cindy. Yesterday as we were finishing up, the first tornado warning of the cluster that went through Baldwin county popped up, and we went on a quick unexpected storm chase... incredibly, with success! My very first tornado!

Saw one very brief touchdown near Summerdale with the main cell that went east of Foley, along with incredible rotating cloud structure for a tropical spawned tornado event, and followed another non warned but rotating storm halfway to Bay Minette, also seeing rotation and possible funnels. The storms were moving NNW perfectly parallel to and along the main highway running North-south through the county and thus was perfect for seeing, despite the heavy traffic. Mom swears she saw a second tornado from the second storm crossing the road, but we agreed it was probably rapidly rising narrow scud near the rotating part of the storm.

Of the one we did see, the wispy brief vortex that touched the ground barely condensed and can't be seen in the video I got but the cone shaped funnel above is quite visible. It probably touched down more than just then but the view was blocked by trees for most of its trek.

Also, coastal flooding, freshwater flooding, wind gusts, rainfall rates, and waves have been amazing down here this week. Definitely a storm to remember for me even though Cindy never actually came close to landfalling here.
