  1. Flurries flying here, first 32 degree reading of the season. Good band in NE NC likely putting down at least a dusting. Now back to bed
  2. Flurries reported in statesville
  3. Returns starting to blossom north of Greensboro
  4. Accumulating snow south of Charlotte on November 10 is beyond rare
  5. That’s nuts for November 10
  6. Friend in Charlotte says it’s snowing hard but not sticking
  7. RAH talks about the chance of a brief period of snow tomorrow night in latest discussion
  8. We have not made it below 39 yet at my house this fall
  9. Half an inch so far. Very solid rain event, my house seems to be in the best spot for once
  10. Looks like the storm might come close to major again. Really getting its act together this morning on both satellite and recon
  11. Melissa has now surpassed Erin in total ACE, becoming the highest ACE producing storm of the season, second storm of the season with >32 and third storm >26. I know people forecasted a backloaded season but to only have 5 hurricanes and get a basin seasonal ACE of likely ~140 is impressive.
  12. As expected the wind damage where the eyewall came ashore is extreme. There are areas where well built structures appear to have been flattened by wind, not surge. With elevation in play I am confident assessment will find ground verification of 200+ mph gusts. Honestly some of the damage looks akin to a very high end tornado. I cannot wait to hear Josh’s take on it as he went through the worst of both this and Dorian
  13. 1.26” here with a steady drizzle continuing this morning
  14. https://www.metoc.navy.mil/fwcn/animate.html?icao=mugm&type=CMaxZH240 Guantanamo radar confirms satellite: small eye with violent eyewall reforming. This is bombing out
  15. How this managed to keep a tight inner core after spending 5+ hours over the mountains with seemingly zero time to reorganize is beyond me. I’m at a loss. If it had been moving quickly over Jamaica, sure. But this thing crawled. And exploded the second it hit water. Looks high end-ish on satellite again. Doubt it goes back to a 5 but at this point I can’t deny the possibility
  16. Without engaging in hyperbole this is looking like it might make a run at high end cat 4 even in the few hours until landfall based on satellite trends
  17. Eye rapidly clearing out. How strong can it get before the next landfall? It’s going to push the boundary for rapid recovery post-landfall.
  18. Looking rather violent: https://www.metoc.navy.mil/fwcn/animate.html?icao=mugm&type=CMaxZH240
  19. Just casually going beastmode again. This is a historic storm yall. We might not see one like this again in our lives
