    I suspect equal parts GW, and urban hear Island. Check out this time lapse of development over the past 40 years: https://earthengine.google.com/timelapse#v=36.08865,-79.93213,12.106,latLng&t=3.63&ps=50&bt=19840101&et=20201231&startDwell=0&endDwell=0

    Going back to 1990, 11 years had October freezes in Greensboro. Of those years, one had December snow, more than a trace (9%), (1" in 1993). 10 years out of 31 had snow more than a trace overall (32%) so years without an October freeze had snowfall 41% of the time and with a freeze 9% of the time. A rather small sample size, but an interesting inverse correlation.

    1994, A big year for flooding! Alberto dropped 25"+ of rain on parts of Georgia.

    Thankfully, that still means we probably don't even break 80 degrees. Then the GEFS brings back below normal temps for the end of October.

    Convection Is being blown away from the center again, seems to be dealing with some pretty significant shear. The NHC forecast of 45 mph pre-landfall, may be too strong.

    Recon just took off for our new invest. We'll find out in a couple hours whether this is a TC, or a glorified squall line

    Finally wrapping convection around the center. Should be off to the races

    Looks like the core starting to organize, but may be a while before we see anything like an eyewall

    Convection go boom

    LLC racing off to the NW, now fully exposed

    Only six storms have passed within 50 miles of PTC 13 in the satellite era, of which, 5 became hurricanes and 2 became major hurricanes

    Ah CFS Snow maps. The telltale sign of a truly desperate person person

    It will be interesting to see the battle play out between that HAFS and the HWRF. A good test case

    This system is very Reminiscent of Joan in 1988. Thankfully will likely be hitting a sparsely populated area and flooding as usual, will be the main threat https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hurricane_Joan–Miriam

    Impacts from the storm across central NC will continue through early Saturday. Heavy rainfall will lead to a threat of flash flooding, especially this afternoon into tonight. Tropical storm force wind gusts of 40 to 60 mph, with isolated higher gusts, are expected across portions of the central, southern, and northwest Piedmont, Coastal Plain, and Sandhills, with gusts to 40 mph elsewhere. In addition, an isolated tornado can`t be ruled out across the Coastal Plain today into tonight.

    The overnight models seem to be indicating the highest gusts will be cut off right around the triad area. Depends, it seems, on how much the dry air to the north is able to cut off the convection as it pushes in . If heavier rain rates are still present as the center moves past Charlotte, gusts could exceed 50 mph, otherwise they may stay in the 40s

    Pressure down at least to 988 as well. NHC nailed this one

    Recon is on its way, should be rather fascinating from a scientific perspective

    Took some digging but finally found it. Seems to be an asymmetric warm core for now

    Not exactly your classic hurricane structure...
