First feeder moving into DC 

That’s not a feeder..that’s from the trough not the storm imo.

[ldub23]

thats from the storm. it went through here a few  hours ago heading rapidly  north

Looking really healthy at the moment. Winds starting to pick up west of Charleston but still light. Going to be a rough night up around Georgetown.

Anxiously awaiting in Myrtle Beach. Gonna go down to the ocean before high tide to see how bad it actually is. If there’s any daylight left I’ll post a pic 

[Chucktown81]

Could just be a wobble but that "eye wall" is looking very close to CHS...

[WinterWolf]

No upgrade at 5 pm advisory...everything the same lol.

That band he’s talking about in DC is not associated with the tropical storm.  Look at the radar.

[SENC]

Torrential rains & starting to get "alil" gusty in this current band..

After struggling for days try to make an eye and having it ripped away, Iz deserves to have a big ragged tractor tire for an eye at the end.

Nope. Been following it for 6 hours as it moved northward from NC/VA border

Two people have now told you that you are incorrect

Ok if you say so.

So what?  I’m looking at the radar...it’s a few  hundred miles away from the circulation of the storm. But if you guys say so, so be it. 

[rmcwahoo]

Steady rain settling in on Bald Head Island, NC. Very faint breezes so no wind to speak of yet

The storms in Ohio are from the trough

72mph gust at a bouy off the SC coast.

I'm not sure it is "outer bands" or simply just moisture interacting with the stalled frontal boundary:

[WxWatcher007]

Recon has departed and is on its way to the storm. Should be there in a few hours. 

[NorthHillsWx]

Might need another convective burst to get over the hump and reach hurricane status again, but the radar progression continues to indicate the storm is gradually becoming better organized. Much more pronounced banding features in the northern quadrant and, obviously, a ragged formative eyewall. I still believe this makes it to Cat 1, but it's going to be close unless some new storms blow up. Some high velocities noted from local radars as well. NHC discussed these might be related to the beam height and distance from radar site. Convection is waning despite the improvement of the overall organization.

Just had one hell of a shelf cloud roll over Raleigh

[goldman75]

Here in myrtle beach it’s just been some light rain.  Very little breeze.  Suppose to start going downhill around 8pm

[thunderman]

Buoy 41004 reported 41 kts gusting to 51 kts

Had a 62 kts gust 10 minutes before that.  Not to shabby 

[NorthHillsWx]

Heavy rain in Raleigh. About 0.50" so far and adding up quick. Definitely some feisty gusts with the current rain band as it pushed through but mostly calm now

I'm in Surfside and we've gotten some really good squalls. Had one early this morning and another in the afternoon, and then one about an hour or so ago. The most recent one, the ocean was just a blur from our oceanfront spot like 100 yards from the ocean.

I think only graphics will answer this. The following are taken from MSFC's GOES animations. You can clearly see the band moving north off the Hurricane. The first was about 3 hours before it moved through DC area. The second is when it was moving through:

 

Band still clearly connected to Isaias and not part of the trough:

Yep trough showing up nicely on radar in western  Virginia that will move east after Isaias moves north that band coming through DC outer edges of Isaias and now transitioning to overrunning up here in Pennsylvania we’ve had dew points in the lower to mid 60s all day with cobalt blue skies dew point was 62 at 8 am now it’s 67 and climbing totally cloudy here now with a light south wind which was NW.

Definitely interested in tornado potential tomorrow in the RFQ. Low level lapse rates approach 7.0(steep for a TC) and yield 0-3km CAPE in excess of 150. Ample vort, obviously, and extremely large hodographs. As typical, however, lapse rates above 500mb or so are worse than terrible, and should keep a relative cap on updraft intensity. Raw values below 3km suggest some sig tor potential, but the nature of the setup and climatology have me on hold.

Buoy 41004 down to 993.6 near the circulation.
