Actually its the only known Cat 4 in history to hit NC......this setup worries us a bit the OBX have taken a beating over the last week and even if it went exactly where the NHC has it going it would be really bad out there, if it did something more like the HWRF and put the OBX on the eastern side of the center the OBX will be trashed maybe worse than they have in many dozens of years.....

Good to know. I hope you guys are spared anything too serious.

Once the first batch of precip moves northeastward out of the region, the stalled frontal boundary comes back northwestward into the region as a warm front with a ton of rainfall.  Over 1.5" of rain after Thursday.  Thursday looks like the best day of the week.  Dry for about 18 hours.  Also GFS appears to bring Joaquin down to 972mb just northeast of the Bahamas at hour 60.

Tip do you think Joaquin is losing his convection strength due to the DMIN?

 

First of all ... I thought Joaqiun was a girls name - ahaha. 

 

Maybe he's one of those born with both sets?

 

Looks like normal diurnal pulsations but they don't typically dictate the total story, so I'm less inclined to think this particular permutation in convection means much come tomorrow at this time.

Hey gang, first post back since hail storms in August...

 

Interesting... In trying to anticipate the steering on this vs. 18z GFS runs: 

 

I expected the deeper tropical system on this run to have a more delayed extratropical transition hence delayed capture and hook left, with a more northeast landfall further up the coast.

 

No doubt overly simplistic, but curious what others think. Not the dominant steering factor?

The 0z GFS is just a perfect capture of the system into the trough which bangs it right into VA...watching it on animation is pretty freaking sweet actually.  

 

What is also interesting is how timing really gets held off...especially for our region.  This really gets more complicated with each run as to what we are looking at scenario wise.

I don't think it goes extra tropical. It's a discrete warm core entity that remains intact and follows H5-H3 pipeline into VA.

 

I must be using the term "extratropical transition" too loosely or incorrectly.

It remains warm core even just after it makes landfall in VA, but the transition into some sort of asymmetric hybrid system captured at H5 looks like it happens before landfall, and the timing of this capture seems to be a key factor in where it makes a left hook.

 

In any case, this is definitely more academic this far out.
