Ser Pounce Posted October 3, 2016 Share Posted October 3, 2016 Might as well pick up a little extra at Sam's club on the way home from work. I needed to fill up the car anyway and get granola bars that I take to work for breakfast. Some more canned and dry food to replace supplies we ate earlier this year are due anyway.

AJF0602 Posted October 3, 2016 Share Posted October 3, 2016 That latest GFS run is alarming for the Jacksonville, and Wilmington area. We have been dealing with flooding recently and there is still a lot of standing water. Anxious to see what the next euro holds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

packbacker Posted October 3, 2016 Share Posted October 3, 2016 Interesting...Euro makes landfall on western tip of Haiti and scoots in between Cuba/Haiti after. 0z it missed Haiti and clipped eastern Cuba.

downeastnc Posted October 3, 2016 Share Posted October 3, 2016 HWRF about worst case for Emerald Isle, Cat 3 right in the teeth Then once inland it would be worse case for the Pamlico River basin...80-100 mph sustained winds blowing right up the river, the surge would be historic....this would give even RDU gust well into TS force....MBY might even get 80-100 mph gust if the pressure was really that low and this was a 120mph Cat 3. This pressure looks more realistic that the sub 950 stuff... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wasn't suggesting others chase.. just stating that this could be the first decent sized storm on the Southeastern Coast for chasers to chase.

Problem is getting on the islands, if you do not have a resident sticker they aint letting you on, once the mandatory evacs go up the bridges are one way only...without that sticker.....if you do chase you will have to stay on the mainland somewhere....best bet would be ILM or Jacksonville, onshore, lots of hotels etc....

Still 5 days out but the fact the models are getting better sampling of the players and now all of a sudden we get this general consensus is bad news for SC/NC for sure......

I was thinking that Wilmington might be a good spot, but of course that could all change by tomorrow. I will have to work on Monday here in Asheville, so having a way out will be important.

If it should happen to come in anywhere along the SC coast south of Myrtle you won't get anywhere near the coast, especially a 4 or 5. I was a system admin for the city of Charleston and the evac procedures will stop anyone from coming into Charleston county. They take it very seriously after the Hugo fiasco. Plus 17 south of Georgetown all the way to Savannah is nearly non accessible during mandatory evacs for cat 3 or higher storm. There are very few roads to get people off of the coast in that stretch and they will take priority. Either get on beach early and grab your balls or stay away if it comes in down there. It will be a mess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
packbacker Posted October 3, 2016 Share Posted October 3, 2016 Problem with the Euro making landfall, unlike the GFS is the ridge to it's north, just rots away off the SC coast. Looks like it will head east after this and miss land. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
