No model had this over a low Cat 1 yesterday and they said there was really nothing that could cause this to intensify. We really need a not-for profit weather channel because this "make it up as you go along to get viewers" is for shit.

AL starting around 1-2AM, not a big deal for them, a really fast mover so rain won't be a concern.
