    Per Twitter, he settled on a concrete masonry building up on a hill. Def safe from surge i'm sure, but will be battling the wind. There's a chance he might catch the 2nd strongest Hurricane landfall ever. Think about that for a second. Unreal.

    Mind boggling. There are certain systems that defy the norms. This is def one of them. Not sure people are prepared for the scenes that will be coming out of Jaimaca. They've dogged the bullet so many times. Not this one.

    Twitter BS

    Not sure how much lower pressure the atmosphere can support down there. Assuming it can go close to 900mb. Just a sick setup. The depth of the warm water in that area is always off the chart.

    The eye appears to have gotten a bit smaller on Sat. Not sure if the vdm will confirm or not.

    12z EC/AI/Google Deep mind are pretty deadset on SW Jamaica (Would put the mid-point near White House, Jamaica). I don't see much variance among them today. Seems to be the spot.

    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.

    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.

    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).

    Like most of these turns North, it will likely stall, wobble, and then start drifting North before accelerating.

    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.

    This has the feel of Maria before it hit Puerto Rico.

    This is my neck of the woods. We had a little over 5.
  15. HKY_WX
    Total here was about 5.25

    Mod to Hvy snow up here in Franklinton. I think we might get up to another 2" out of these bands today. Crazy rates.

    Moderate snow again here. We will likely pick up another inch+ out of this

    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.
  20. HKY_WX
    It's basically a fropa with snow showers.
  21. HKY_WX
    22.1. Flurries still flying. About 11 hours of flakes.
  22. HKY_WX
    Lol nice
  23. HKY_WX
    Yeah I measured over 4 in several spots out there. My guess is Wake Forest is similar

    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.
  25. HKY_WX
    I envy you guys. My 4 year old is awake and still going crazy.
