Outer bands are now showing up on long range radar.
-
.07" yesterday, nothing today. Currently 89/76.
-
Well crap, just got word my Generator will not arrive today as expected. They say tomorrow or Friday but I seriously doubt it.
-
Welcome and most likely you will probably see lots of rain and some windy conditions but that should be about it. Just keep watching as things can change in the next day or so.
-
I did a google search and it said at 4 pm it was about 250 miles across.
-
Sandy and Isabel are 2 that come to mind that made significant left hand moves but you are right that none that we know of have made SW moves this far north.
-
Stalling off the coast and slowly moving down it is much better than slamming onshore. Worst of the winds stay off shore and between land interaction and upwelling, the storm will weaken quickly. This is the best scenario for much of us, especially my area.
-
The GFS has been insane for the last few days. Stalling off of Hatteras as a cat 5 and looping around while maintaining the same strength to now hitting the coast near Wilmington and then moving south to the Ga/SC border.
-
Much slower now. Calling for a 2 pm landfall on Friday instead of a Thursday night/early Friday morning landfall. Also looks to be a tick southwest than at 2 pm.
-
Not you, I see it too. Much closer to MHC now. Not good for us at all.
-
Ok, that explains it.
-
That is ridiculous. That's 2 whole days of sales they will lose not to mention those who still want to go out and supplement what they have.
-
I bought one off of Amazon and expect it Wednesday.
-
According to WCTI it is for the entire county. For some reason I cannot attach the link.

yotaman replied to stormtracker's topic in Tropical Headquarters
Carteret County NC is under mandatory evacuation beginning Tuesday. Pamlico County mandatory evacuations also starts tomorrow at 3pm. Both are for the entire county, all cities and towns. -
Since the Aug 24, I have had .12". That's 18 days without appreciable rain.
-
Just saw that Carteret County NC is under Mandatory evacuation for all cities and towns in the county. This starts tomorrow morning Pamlico county is under Mandatory evacuation beginning tomorrow at 3pm.

That is horrible for me. I am in the eastern eyewall. See where 35N and 77W meet. That is approximately where I live.

Found this on another forum. Super closeup of the eye. http://rammb.cira.colostate.edu/ramsdis/online/loop.asp?data_folder=loop_of_the_day/goes-16/20180910000000&number_of_images_to_display=400&loop_speed_ms=25

Finally broke down and bought a Inverter Generator for $385 from Amazon with delivery Wednesday. The wind from this has me worried especially since models seem to be moving this slowly northward along the coast. But we will see.
-
Did you pull the trigger on your generator yet? I am still debating.
-
Welcome. I don't buy the GFS. Not because it stalls it out but because it stalls it out and actually strengthens it to a cat 5 while sitting there. No way can those waters maintain that strong of a storm with all the upwelling and land interaction that would happen with a big and strong storm.
-
Still no rain, currently 85/78.
-
I went to Lowes to see what generators they had and all they had was 1 type at $750 so I left. I don't need nor want a 200lb generator. The store was packed and I have heard that our local Walmarts were selling water like there was no tomorrow. People are actually scared of this one and several people on my street are already planning on leaving. I am staying put, hard to find a hotel that will allow 3 dogs with 2 of them being large.
-
That is just unreal. 35.3" for me and almost 50" for Hatteras!! That model also has it hanging around as a cat 4 for 3 to 4 days. Very unlikely.
