between new brunswick and savannah. the on and off tornados will be with us all afternoon and especially late this afternoon early this evening, in the carolina areas, you have numerous hazards, tornados, and the current wind gusts in valdosta hit 67 miles per hour. trees are definitely coming down. i m sure people are seeing the arcing of the power lines there and losing power. that should head up towards way cross georgia in an hour from now. finally back down below hurricane strength, and by the way, we did have rapid intensification yesterday of this storm, it went from 70 up to 120 miles per hour winds. it was a pretty rare feat over extremely warm water, and because it got so strong, and now instead of dealing with just a tropical storm, we could see hurricane gust, areas like brunswick, georgia, savannah, possibly charleston too. that s what we re going to be watching this afternoon. these are the predicted highest
