Saw this on American earlier this morning showing the path of landfall. It was from a Twitter post and I just did a screen shot of the pic.
Napoleonic tactics. (off topic, but since you brought it up). Close range engagement on the battlefield was a holdover from the days of hand to hand combat with swords and bayonets. Introduce firearms into the conflict, and it becomes a much bloodier affair. That was one of the reasons why the Civil War was as bad as it was. Battlefield tactic had to change with technology, but it took a while.At any rate, your point is taken.Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
The crazy thing about that pic (assuming it hasn't been doctored, and I don't assume it has), you can actually make out the path a little out from the shore- presumably debris and stirred up muddy water from the rotation around the eye interacting land and sea.
Interesting. It's just odd that guns were used in the Revolutionary War and noone had figured this out by the Civil War. Clearly, between the Civil War and WWI, someone figured out the ingenious idea of digging trenches.
I will not name who I directly spoke to, other than this person actually had to do some of the research for it, but Michael will officially be upgraded to 140kts at landfall. This is based upon recon data and also Eglin AFB's radar velocities.
We are in the midst of planning our summer trip, we’ve gone to Mexico Beach for what feels like a decade. Planning this one has been really hard.
