Yeah I've recall other aliens in past years been ridiculously low potatoes on 3k!
Edit: pressure, not potatoes, I'm tired long day at work in sun today.
Double edit: I think I meant storms (??) not aliens...
Not for nothing but, of all the models I've seen, the 18z 12k nam starting pressure at 18z today is nearly spot on to current pressure....
Edit! My God, if the 3k were to be right is saying 945mb at landfall, a bit over done. Lol
I wish I could do the loop for this but it's impossible to download the gif on phone. It's nearly a closed center atleast on this.

OK this is only a small piece but, tell me that doesn't look ridiculous..I see some of them doing multiple loop de loops like there on a "roller coaster"
I could see it being a glancing blow or close but barely miss for most north of Virginia...
Edit: big rain though, not so much wind, as if this point.. could change
Gfs then brings another "make believe" tropical system from about Cuba up the exact path as derby a few days later lmao...
I think the Gfs,( 12z again...), has lost its marbles or has a few to many drinks at the bar last night..
She's got full counter clockwise rotation now on satellite loop.
Fyi:Cmc 12z pressure started at 1000mb, which is higher then what's seen. So it's weaker this run.
Icon was east overall and again clobbered the entire east coast with rain with the craziest amounts down south.
