I’ve missed this weather so much
-
I’ve been on the fence with this issue. I think both cases can be true. FEMA is helping but there’s also plenty of reason to say it hasn’t been enough.
-
Over two weeks later and it’s still surreal to me that this event happened the way it did. I love weather as much as anyone on here but it’s been hard to even look at forecasts the past few weeks. My appetite for appreciable weather has been subdued by this event tremendously.
-
Per Tampa radar - the eye is about 85% closed now
-
Honestly didn’t have the stomach to track this one after what I’ve seen since the 27th. Probably a first for me.
-
Been on the ground in western Watauga County. What many are seeing is just the tip of the iceberg. This damage isn’t catastrophic, it’s biblical. Apocalyptic. God help our region.
-
This is the most devastating impact imaginable for western NC. Literally our worst fears came to fruition. I’m praying for your family.
-
Well. the gulf coast dreads the “I” names and I suppose the Carolina’s will forever dread the “H” names.

79mph gust

Tree #2 is down

Tree #1 is down

These mesovorticies are insane. The eye is almost shaped like a triangle.
-
140mph
-
Just zero meter the thing. We’re all weenies at heart that probably wanted to chase a cane at some point and this is coming to our doorstep (trying to find the smallest glimmer of light on this dimly lit evening).
-
Ridge tops will experience 80 mph winds tomorrow but I will say conditions are deteriorating fast so be careful if you make that move now.
-
Wondering the same about Boone and my Mountaineers. closing in on 5” for the day as well…YIKES!
-
Mesovorticies starting to show up on the edge of Helene’s eye.
-
Explosive and I mean EXPLOSIVE hot towers going up right now
-
Them 2 days ago: don’t buy the unrealistically low pressure readings and winds on the models! today: ooooo this Texas sized cat 3 set to send the southeast into the Stone Age just isn’t cutting it
-
I’d probably get torched for saying this elsewhere but it reminds me of Michael
-
Too much banter in the tropical thread acting like this thing is underperforming. An almost Cat 3 of this size is going to have appreciably worse impacts than your recent compact 4s.
-
You’re making the correct call
-
According to Duke, Lake James, Rhodhiss, Hickory and Lookout Shoals are all expected to reach record levels and they’ve begun aggressively pushing water through the spillways.
-
Update: NWS GSP DID share it but it has since been taken down.
-
Sorry yall. Didn’t mean to spread misinformation if that’s indeed faked. I’m not the only one though. Dozens of well trained Mets are sharing it as we speak.
