    Looks like it's going from FL to offshore and then coming back westbound back onto FL and then dump a lot of rain east of Louisiana.

    Looks like a double or even a triple whammy.

    This Fay won't be forgotten for a while.

    And just how do you effectively manage a tropical storm?

    While it is difficult, or rather impossible to manage a tropical storm, I did mean that if the effects of said storm were managed effictively (chiefly the rain run-off), those effects could replenish the water supplies of lakes in the area (most notable Lake Lanier). Right now, seeing that GA has not recived sufficent supplies of water in the form of rainfall, I am sure that when they do become inundated by water - instead of allowing it to run to the tributaries and back to the Gulf, that they can capture and harness it. Preparation for that management is simple, but would need to be widescale and would come-down to a race against time to say the least - cleaning out waterways (to prevent blockage), releasing water into secondary waterways to allow primary ones to fill, and so forth needs to happen if they are going to make this downpour count. More importantly - crops that are susceptible to water damage need to be protected and/or harvested, and the local farmers need to prepare to alllow the rain to either stay in their soils or choose to release them to the local tributaries. Get it?

    Chemtrails or cloud seeding, like in China.

    Good news for GA! If effectively managed - it could be a God-send to put a dent in their long-running drought!

    started a topic Tropical storm Fay will dump heavy rain

    Tropical storm Fay will dump heavy rain

    For people near the south-east.

    Computer simulations predicting Tropical storm Fay will dump heavy rain accumulations around the 20th of Aug for western Florida; especially Georgia with 13 inches.
