Taking zero credit for this analysis but what I’m hearing is that our low is developing too late and rapidly occluding - meaning we aren’t pulling in enough moisture in time. Solution could be a little more dig. 

Yea how Many storms that formed so close to us destroyed us. We need more dig and more time

Moisture has been a problem for years with this -PDO and/or Niña. Heck, the 1"+ rain that was supposed to fall today ended up at only .38" at York Airport.

          I think that this is very much on the right track.   If you look at the 10m wind field, the expected intense circulation on the east side of the storm just isn't there.    The 850 wind field looks like garbage too.

If that's the case, I suppose it makes sense. Looking at the GFS at 12z vs the UKMET at 00z, the GFS takes the low much further south and it really gets strong down in the deep south. The UKMET ends up with a good h5 passage, but it primarily strengthens further north. Not really making as much noise in the south. Never accesses the GoM as much.

Radar estimates show like .75” there. I hit .8” here so not sure about that. Never showed 1”+ here either was like .5-.75” expected.

Wonder if it’s almost a case of too much of a good thing at h5 with the bombing out. Maybe with such an intense depression in the atmosphere it encourages surface cyclogensis to progress through its stages too rapidly. Subsequently it’s too late to actually develop a good moisture fetch as the moist air transport is cut by the occlusion. Though honestly I have no clue. Only other thing that I think lends credence to my theory is that the upper levels are so dominant it forces cyclogenesis over the middle of NC instead of the normal coastal temp gradient. Dunno how we actually improve this situation though (as in what to watch for)

Also it was supposed to be 60-62 today the high here was 37 can’t get this right 5 hours out, but honestly it gives me hope because once again it stayed way colder.
