Mandatory Credit: Jack Gruber-USA TODAY via Imagn ImagesUnited States President Donald Trump announced last week that he would attend this weekend’s SEC showdown between the No. 2 Georgia Bulldogs and the No. 6 Alabama Crimson Tide. And even as a hurricane builds in the Gulf of Mexico and threatens Alabama with what one meteorologist described as a “nightmare” situation for the game and Trump’s appearance, it sounds like he’s still planning to attend the game.On Wednesday, Trump learned of the building hurricane for the first time, but the White House issued a statement confirming that the president was still planning to attend the high-profile game.‘It’s gonna be a nightmare’Current models indicate that Tropical Storm Isaias, which is strengthening in the Gulf, is expected to develop into a hurricane before making landfall along the Gulf Coast south of Mobile, Alabama, sometime Saturday.There are still plenty of unanswered questions surrounding the storm as it continues to develop, but prominent Alabama meteorologist James Spann has warned that the combination of events scheduled for the weekend, including a visit from Trump, could make the situation a “nightmare.”“We’ve got potential for a hurricane making landfall in Mobile Bay,” Spann told AL.com on Tuesday. “The Alabama-Georgia game, a presidential visit, College GameDay.
