2013 Southeast Tropical Storm Thread

Euro pops a low right off Florida in the 8-9 day range on the tail of a washed out front, that is climo wise a way we see early season storms in the SE....

 

Andrea giving us some decent gust into the mid to upper 30's, if the center keeps sliding up the way it is some of the harder hit spots rain wise are looking to get another round of heavier returns.

 

It definitely wobbled north earlier but seems to be moving more ne now....

4.2 inches thus far and now the sun is out (muggy!!)....it's current path looks to bring that solid shield of heavy rain back in here in a few hours if it holds together.  Not too mention with the sun out and instability on the rise some of those cells that are starting to pop could become severe briefly.

Center seems to be moving way more east in the last few frames of the radar be interesting to see what it does when it gets further east, the airmass here is pretty nasty, can hardly breathe outside its so humid, one would think at the very least it will keep the current band of heavy rain going on the western side of the rotation.

From WxSouth on Facebook:

 

Strong instability (CAPE) of 3000 now in southeast Virginia, and eastern NC where the tornado watch is in effect. Another area to watch is the strong disturbance churning through Alabama and soon to be in Georgia and the western Carolinas this evening and overnight. Enough breaks in the clouds could occur there and there's enough reason to believe that line could get strong as it approaches the southern Apps.
