  1. Picked up 0.29” yesterday which brings the mtd total to 1.92”
  2. 32.4 here this morning. Coldest morning of the fall imby
  3. 1.11” storm total from Nicole. High of 83
  4. Really a pretty impressive look on satellite atm. Don’t see any real change to environment between now and landfall, still will be limited by dry air. Don’t think anything inhibits gradual strengthening though. 70-80kts would be my guess with an 85 max and 65 minimum. Significant event for time of year and surge will be maximized by fetch, wind direction piling water up for days, and moon.
  5. Nicole Is getting its act together today. Bahamas radar shows an extremely pretty radar presentation. Gonna see if it can maintain convection through the minimum today unlike yesterday but hi res models are showing just that and have been by the time it reaches the Bahamas. It would not shock me to see cat 2 based on recon and radar trends if the storm can maintain deep convection
  6. Dry air and a stable environment are main inhibitors, per NHC. Dry air is extremely easy to see on water vapor

  8. Crazy too being one is forecast to reach cat 2 outside of the deep tropics in November
  9. It was a mad dash to 1” of rain for the month but dang if we didn’t make it by the skin of our teeth. Picked up 0.79” yesterday which brought our MTD total to 1.45”. Finished with 1.30” storm total
  10. Per Josh’s twitter, sounds like Roslyn delivered the goods
  11. Just 0.66” for the month. Don’t see us breaking 1”
  12. 34.3 for the low here this morning. Didn’t get to freezing either day. Light frost out, had to scrape the windshield for first time
  13. 35.6 was the low this morning. Frost- mainly on the roof
  14. Pretty good rains this morning. Should break 0.50” EDIT: Finished with 0.52” which brings the MTD total to 0.61”. Obviously a much-needed rain. Currently a humid 66.0 out
  15. Honestly, not bad structure
  16. I’ve been fooled before without recon confirmation, but on visible, this looks like a TC.
  17. 12 more hours and this thing would’ve been a major or dang close to it. Agreed with your discussion
  18. Last week I was in Yellowstone National park during hurricane Ian. I had very limited access to cell service, and obviously models and radar. I’d like to thank this board for an epic thread that needs to be saved. Since I got back, I’ve had time to go back and read discussion from Monday-Friday and it is absolutely a benchmark system both from strength, impact, and degree of forecasting difficulty. As always, excellent discussion on this board of another great American hurricane
  19. This season is very likely to finish BN for total named storms and ACE but it most certainly was backloaded. Where were we on August 31 and where are we now? That’s backloaded to me. We’ll see if October produces like it looks like it will. If October fails to produce, then there may be a debate as to how late September systems don’t really qualify as “backloaded” in a long season
  20. I was about to post that this looks better than the 20/30% odds NHC had for it, then noticed it got bumped back up to an orange at 8. If current convection persists into the afternoon this could be a cherry by tonight. I don’t expect additional development until it gets into the Caribbean but this one could, I suppose, spin up faster than models are showing given current appearance
  21. Sadly I don’t blame anyone but the people who choose to live in these hurricane prone areas and especially those who don’t evacuate. My family had property on the NC coast and we know the risks. TWC interviewed a couple who lost their house in a California Wildfire a few years ago. Their solution? Put everything into a house boat the left docked in fort myers… I mean I’m sorry they lost their boat (house) but at some point you just have to shake your head at the decisions some people make for their lives.
  22. Power came back sometime overnight. Still a lot of generators humming in the background so think we got a bit lucky.
