  1. I'm not sure there are many good comparisons on this one other than Maria/PR and Dorian/Bahamas. Everyone knows how those turned out.
  2. Rainfall wise, the entire island is screwed which is the biggest killer in tropical systems. That portion will be pretty epic. The wind damage (at least the extreme portion of it) will likely be confined to the central and western end of the island.
  3. Kinda looks like the turn has happened or is in the process of happening now. Josh is camped out somewhere near Treasure beach i think, he usually has a good feel for where these things landfall. I like that area but just a bit west (I'm assuming he's trying to get in the eastern eyewall).
  4. Like most of these turns North, it will likely stall, wobble, and then start drifting North before accelerating.
  5. That's a good point, but most canes normally approach Jamaica from the east on a westward heading. At that trajectory it lends itself to the frictional land effects and wobbles away from the island. This one will be heading north as its caught up in the trough and the angle of approach will make that scenario unlikely. It's obviously still possible though. The only beneficial factor wind wise would be some small weakening on approach but rainfall wise they are completely effed.
  6. This is my neck of the woods. We had a little over 5.
  7. Mod to Hvy snow up here in Franklinton. I think we might get up to another 2" out of these bands today. Crazy rates.
  8. Moderate snow again here. We will likely pick up another inch+ out of this
  9. Congrats to the guys out west. We're getting some flurries here again this Morn. Sitting at 23 right now. I think I will be officially ready for spring after the next 2 days of working 2 jobs, working from home and daycare.
  10. 22.1. Flurries still flying. About 11 hours of flakes.
  11. Yeah I measured over 4 in several spots out there. My guess is Wake Forest is similar
  12. The only storm in my life that I remember Charlotte proper capitalizing on was that late Feb 2004 storm. They had like 12+. It's not in a great location climo wise. No elevation like the foothills, too far west for coastals like this one, and normally always mixes to sleet and zr during Miller A's b/c it's too far south.
  13. I envy you guys. My 4 year old is awake and still going crazy.
  14. Winter Wonderland here in Franklinton. Roughly 4"
  15. The only convection i see right now is over the Triangle.... Boom
  16. Death band here in Franklinton. Approaching 2.5 to 3" i would wager.
  17. 26.9* here in Franklinton. Light snow currently. Dusting came fast with the temps.
