Latest #ncwx: Looks like TS #Michael will bring 3-5” rain this week across SE NC & southern Blue Ridge & 2-3” rain across rest of NC. Heaviest rain likely Wed pm - Fri morn. Gusty winds also likely - esp. across SE NC, where trees vulnerable from #Florence. Stay Tuned.

This is a much bigger concern for you Florida and Georgia guys but the concern this far north is the wet ground from Florence (even though theres been a lot of drying) could mean any weakened root systems could be in jeopardy if winds get too high. So while we are not expecting nearly the weather y'all could be in for the concern is anything over 50mph in gusts could down already weakened trees here in SC/NC.

This is BAD,, very Bad for  My area( SENC) As @Shaggy & @Downeast mentioned We have Millions  of "weakened" Trees here, STILL lotsa "leaners", and Live Oaks, that are, (I just don't want to think about this). Our Local NWS Has us 4~6 inch rain on TOP of very very SATURATED grounds... 40-60 MPH winds.. Folks this is .. Thousands of roofs here are tarped, Rivers are "Barley" in their Banks.. I don't even...

NWS says for ATL to expect TS conditions.  We will see I’m skeptical.  I may even take a quick ride down to S. GA and see this sucker move in inland. 

Personally, i'm pulling for the 11am track..as that keeps the strongest winds away from here while still giving us some decent rains. I'm really nervous about getting a gfs like track and getting such strong southerly winds. 

We'll see how big this system is when it makes landfall but right now it's already fairly large. So i would think Even with that track though some gusts to tropical storm force is probable. Sucks the peak will be at night though.

I think landfall is starting to zero in on Panama City to the Big Bend area. The euro has this far enough east that the wind impacts would be negligible for NC. GFS is a different story, however. Euro would need to trend towards the GFS for me to get excited about anything other than rain.

That's a decent west shift....the 06Z in front of the Euro throws me off lol.....the stronger storms stay east though that cluster of ens has shifted west quite a bit as well

Yep! The 06Z Euro EPS Mean is pretty dang close to the 00Z UK OP with regards to the track over the Carolinas.  Will be interesting to see what the 12Z UK and Euro show in the next few hours...

Several models now have the pressure holding steady or actually falling as if crosses NC and transitions.....wonder what that would mean for mixing down those 850's could be a case where we have average sustained winds 20-30 but are able to see bigger gust to 70+.

I think it will matter where that transition occurs. Tropical systems will lose a lot of wind once it passes. But I'm with you in not knowing how the winds would respond to the low (that has passed us) and the newly interacting high.

The latest cv3 - GFS run, would be a different look for you!?
