Gives you an idea of how rare snowfall of any amount is outside the mountains in the first half of November (this data set is 1970-2024)

Neat to see the cold air pushing clouds away from Florida.https://weather.cod.edu/satrad/?parms=subregional-Florida-truecolor-24-0-100-1&checked=map&colorbar=undefined

Looking at traffic cams, up to half an inch or so accumulated in Eastern NC!

I can't justify staying up late for this so hoping for a lil dusting to wake up to. I fear it is so dry it will disappear by the morning even if it does stick

High of 75 yesterday and a low of 33 this morning at the airport, really impressive drop. In fact it is tied for the biggest 16 hour drop in temp since 1960 in the month of November

Just past peak in the triad, about a week early I think. The really weird thing is that my maple tree and oak trees are dropping about on the same schedule, usually the maple tree is a couple weeks earlier.

Someone's excited! Glad we're back in the hunt though we are likely chasing token first flakes at best

That's massive. As a point of reference, Katrina was about 10% of GDP at the time. Unfortunately the resort industry will be severely affected, which will take time to recover. -

Likely will be the first season since 2015 without a land falling US hurricane. Puts an exclamation point on the "all it takes is one" rule -

It's trying but the new eyewall is huge an unsymmetrical, so I think it's unlikely to strengthen any unless the eye gets smaller. Don't think that will happen before it starts to become more post-tropical -

There's no doubt in my mind. I also feel he was a pioneer in terms of bringing hurricane chasing into the mainstream among the weather community and even to some extent to the general public. He showed that it adds value both from a scientific data standpoint and in terms of bringing visibility to the experiences of survivors. Finally he shows that he can have compassion for those affected while still being passionate/enthusiastic about experiencing the raw power of hurricanes. -
