happening understand
I don't understand what's happening out there, but things are popping.
across barrier bit came category fact land
We thought it may have been weakening a little bit before it came over land. In fact ... it probably was not a Category 4 (hurricane) when it came across the barrier islands. It may have already been down to a (Category) 3 (hurricane).
concerned far georgia northern primarily west
We're very much concerned about the coast, primarily Georgia and the Carolinas, but it could still be even as far west as northern Florida. It's erratic. It could do something weird.
eventually inches next rio rivers three
We've had (rain) accumulations of as much as 25 inches in some locations. We're going to see that show up in the rivers for the next two or three days, eventually into the Rio Grande.
category origin system
The origin of the system is being better organized, and more like your classical-looking hurricane. It could go back to a category 3 storm.
border bring carolina miles models shore winds
One or more of the (forecast) models bring it on shore (along) the Georgia-South Carolina border with winds of, perhaps, 50 miles an hour.
concerned days four heavy looking pleasant rain three
We're concerned about the very heavy rainfall over most of Florida. We're looking at three or four days of heavy rain down here, accumulations of up to 20 inches. It's not going to be a pleasant time.
concerned strengthen stretch
We're concerned about a big stretch of the coast. And, possibly, (Bonnie) could strengthen a little more before it makes landfall.
buildings concern hit miles per puerto regions wind
There is concern with the mountainous regions here, we think wind gusts could hit up to 150 miles per hour. There's concern too for high-rise buildings in Puerto Rico.
carolina causing heavy moving north outer strong winds
It is now moving away from the North Carolina Outer Banks. It is still causing strong winds and heavy rain.
strong surf winds
That suggests that they're going to get strong winds (in Florida) and they're really going to get some strong surf out of this.
chance reasonable
I think there's a reasonable chance it will get stronger.
almost close coast days east luck miss three turn worry
We think Dennis will turn up the East Coast and with any luck will miss everything, but it will come close enough where we'll worry about it. In three days it can be on almost any of us.
central florida hit north watch
We may hit everything from central Florida through North Carolina, at some point, with a (hurricane) watch or (hurricane) warning.
