  1. Great rain finally. 1.95” looks to be our storm total. 2.23” MTD. Currently 69.7 out!
  2. That’s a massive hurricane and a beautiful satellite shot!
  3. @Avdave I think our rain is coming today. Radar looks great (now jinxed) Edit: flash flood warning now in effect for wake county. Raining as hard as it can right now. Over 1” already with much more to come per radar
  4. Saw some videos from fishing boats coming through Oregon and Hatteras inlets today in NC. The swell is here in a big way! Had coast guard directing boats through sets. Big time rollers, looked 7-8 ft already
  5. Yea that storm that went from downtown to rolesville meant business. A ton of lightning and thunder. We caught the VERY edge for about 10 minutes
  6. Same here. Only picked up 0.06” today, places literally a mile East of here had almost 2”
  7. The small low-level vorticity maximum that developed is what got this going. Given another day or two, yadda yadda, would have probably been a hurricane. Doubt it given the southerly shear but it certainly could’ve been a 50 kt tropical storm in the next 6-10 hours. Very impressive structure on radar for a weak ts, even trying to wrap some bands upshear
  8. Mindy is (relatively speaking) impressive. Core wrapping up and good banging north of the center
  9. Just looked and you’re right. Also- that’s an amazingly wide eyewall! Holy crap. Glad we’re getting recon in this storm
  10. For all those talking about lack of good looking eyes every season: Are you not entertained???
  11. Proud to say that I’m not a snob for sexy Hurricanes, like Ida, and love a big ole fat truck tire like Larry. Last ERC gave us the biggest eye in the Atlantic in recent memory! Storm is a beast, also ACE is going to be through the roof with this one
  12. This is one I’d love to see a radar image of. Wilma south Florida-like
  13. About to have a truck tire eye structure.
  14. Larry’s taking off this evening. Nice blowup of convection in the inner core and a warming eye. Outflow is incredible in all sectors. It looks to me like some mid level dry sir has been hampering the eyewall from closing off and this convection will likely do the trick in mixing that out. This storm will be a beast over the next couple of days, will be fun to watch evolve
  15. 79.2 at the moment! Loving this early taste of fall. Low of 56.4 this morning. Hope everyone enjoyed what rain we could muster the other day, looks extremely dry the next two weeks, after being extremely dry the last 2 weeks
  16. Total costs of this storm are going to be absurd. It’s kind of that hurricane that had it all: catastrophic wind and surge at landfall, damaging winds in a major metropolitan area, and now widespread historic flooding in the most densely populated part of the country. Also, a fairly significant tornado outbreak from Virginia to the northeast
  17. 12/5/2 (about to be 3). Puts us at about the exact average for the entire season and it’s only first week in September
  18. Finished with 0.28” of rainfall yesterday
  19. Fits the term “catastrophic” for me. What’s crazy is surge looked to be very high and caused a large portion of the damage, but wind damage looks just as severe with many homes having their entire second stories shredded away and even apparent well-built homes having major damage as well. This was one of the most high-end wind impacts in history for the US. Just a historic storm all around
  20. 0.09” for the day, currently 82.2. High earlier was 86.7
  21. 4.16” MYD Highest Temp 99.4 Lowest Temp 60.3
