Exactly. Had to divert from ATL one night. (Actually, the same night FTB was talking about above.) Holding east of Atlanta. Storms rolling through. AGS was our dispatch alternate. Sitting in the holding pattern, heard a bunch of guys heading to AGS and SAV. Called the dispatcher with our plan to go to JAX. He agreed, it being south of the line and no one heading that way. We lead the pack into there and got a gate. Others had to park at the remote stand.

Lesson learned: Pay attention to what is going on, Make an INFORMED decision, and don't hesitate.
