  1. This is a few miles down the road from me. Probably why my power went out initially.
  2. Had an intense band come thru and knocked out our power but once the rain and winds let up, it came back on. I thought we were done with power for a long time.
  3. I am seriously doubting those numbers. It is calling for 24" for us and as of right now I have only had .16" and I live just southeast of NB.
  4. Eastern eyewall is pretty much gone. Is it doing an eyewall replacement?
  5. Eye looks to be wobbling a lot but seems to be generally moving wnw. Anyone else see this?
  6. Power outages already being reported in Havelock, Morehead, and Beaufort.
  7. Just had a short but heavy band move thru. It was quick and gusty. Only .12" feel out of it but it is pretty windy here. Probably in the 25 to 35 mph range.
  8. Even if she weakens to a cat 1, storm surge will still be huge all along the coast.
  9. A lot of people expected her to be a strong cat 4 or even a cat 5 by now. Let's hope the weakening continues. At her size it would take while to wind down unless more dry air gets entrained in her.
  10. Good, keep weakening. I would love to wake up tomorrow and see a sub 100 mph storm.
  11. Also, our local news had there future radar model show us having very little effect from Florence. Just some wind and rain. Much worse at the southern coast south of J-actionville.
  12. Glad it has weakened today and hope it doesn't strengthen anymore. Wife and I went out to eat this evening and most restaurants and fast food joints are closed. Found a Waffle house open so reluctantly ate there. Gas stations are closing and most grocery stores are open until about 9 or 10 tonight and then closing until storm passes.
  13. Outer bands are now showing up on long range radar.
  14. Well crap, just got word my Generator will not arrive today as expected. They say tomorrow or Friday but I seriously doubt it.
  15. Welcome and most likely you will probably see lots of rain and some windy conditions but that should be about it. Just keep watching as things can change in the next day or so.
  16. I did a google search and it said at 4 pm it was about 250 miles across.
  17. Sandy and Isabel are 2 that come to mind that made significant left hand moves but you are right that none that we know of have made SW moves this far north.
  18. Stalling off the coast and slowly moving down it is much better than slamming onshore. Worst of the winds stay off shore and between land interaction and upwelling, the storm will weaken quickly. This is the best scenario for much of us, especially my area.
  19. Much slower now. Calling for a 2 pm landfall on Friday instead of a Thursday night/early Friday morning landfall. Also looks to be a tick southwest than at 2 pm.
  20. Not you, I see it too. Much closer to MHC now. Not good for us at all.
  21. That is ridiculous. That's 2 whole days of sales they will lose not to mention those who still want to go out and supplement what they have.
  22. I bought one off of Amazon and expect it Wednesday.
  23. According to WCTI it is for the entire county. For some reason I cannot attach the link.
  24. Carteret County NC is under mandatory evacuation beginning Tuesday. Pamlico County mandatory evacuations also starts tomorrow at 3pm. Both are for the entire county, all cities and towns.
