The NHC is great. The cone philosophy is political correctness. The cone is simply a visual representation of the average forecasting error as the lead time grows. Nothing more, nothing less.

Can you just email them to your email acct at home then download them and then attach them? you may have to use Taptalk i think it is called to do that from your phone, im not 100% on that though.

To expand on this reply: Method #1 using phone + PC: 1) Transfer the photos from your phone to your pc. 2) Upload to a site like postimage dot org 3) Find the section that says "direct link" when you have uploaded and copy it into your post. It should auto-load your image inside. Method #2 using just the phone: ... There should be an "attach files" link somewhere in the message window you are trying to reply with (mine was at the bottom). If not, that sucks. I just logged in to see on my Android phone to verify. The file size has to be 1.95mb or less though. Also, if you upload images directly to this site it will require people to be logged in to see them (if it hasnt changed). This is due to bandwidth conservation and whatever else set by the website owners/administrators. If you provide links from other websites like postimage dot org I noted above, they should show always to anyone since they won't be using this website's resources to lots of "guests". .. If your pictures are larger than 1.95mb (which is very common on today's phones), you will have to go all the way back around to Method #1. .. Maybe the tapatalk app makes it easier, idk.

MN Transplant Posted October 4, 2016 Share Posted October 4, 2016 I think I know the answer to this, but I'll put it here for the locals. My aunt is flying down to Charleston on Thursday and has a rental on Isle of Palms. Obviously for a direct hit or a near scrape she doesn't want to be anywhere near there. For a slighty more offshore track, how likely are mandatory evacs for Isle of Palms? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm nowhere near as educated when it comes to the tropics as I am with winter storms. You also have to account for the geography working against it as it races North. Keep in mind that no Category 4 has ever made landfall north of Little River, South Carolina. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hey MN Transplant, i would think she would part of the mandatory evacaution as Isle of Palms is on a barrier island to begin with and no elevation. Im pretty sure it will be completely flooded there. Just the surge and rainfall and then with the winds it will be brutal on the island itself Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FallsLake Posted October 4, 2016 Share Posted October 4, 2016 I know most folks on this board wish for Matthew to hit and move inland. We're weather hobbyist and that makes since. But if the storm continues along the coast and out to sea, it helps draw in very cool fall air. After this summer I'm really tired of tropical weather.

I'd take 90-95 and very humid if it would bring rain. It is awfully dry west of I-77 in NC and SC and Matthew isn't going to help any. The GFS says no rain right through Oct 20 anywhere in the southeast except within 100-150 miles of the coast and in FLA over areas that don't need rain.

FlatLander48 Posted October 4, 2016 Share Posted October 4, 2016 For tropical storms we want a northwest movement. For winter storms we want a southeast movement. In both cases, we get the opposite of what we want. And that's the southeast weather in a nutshell. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

YetAnotherRDUGuy Posted October 5, 2016 Share Posted October 5, 2016 I got really confused last night about this time because no one was commenting on the 00z GFS in the Matthew thread. Then I remembered I'm used to checking on these boards during winter after daylight savings time. Whoops. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
