canderson Posted August 5 Share Posted August 5 Lee was wild. I too know so many that lost possessions or even a house because of that flood. Thankfully this seems much less than Lee (which was a double wammy with another storm that dropped a metric ton of rain from Irene less than a week earlier) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bubbler86 Posted August 5 Share Posted August 5 Both the 12Z HRRR and NAM keep Debby over land for quite some time. Emerges into the waters off the SC coast so not a real threat for RI on those runs. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just saw a video of a flooded street in Worse Carolina that has me thinking it's Harvey time down there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jns2183 Posted August 5 Share Posted August 5 Icon keeps wanting to deepen it to a Cat 2 or 3. Not sure about that. But I was talking about performance to the current state of things, not future. I agree on the skepticism but I put more weight then normal on its possibility because of its past performance this weekSent from my SM-G970U using Tapatalk 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Itstrainingtime Posted August 5 Share Posted August 5 It's only August 5th but MU is taking the "L" for the month already: (kudos to him for not trying to back-peddle his Summer 2024 forecast) MU Weather Center @MUweather So much for a hot, dry #August.. that forecast from late May isn't going to work out, especially the "dry" part. Tropics were and will continue to be the wildcard from August through October. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would never say that about the HIA though. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would never say that about the HIA though. Given the forecast for at least the next 7 days, I wouldn't be surprised with that either. He's got us lined up for a 74 on Wednesday and 76 on Thursday. Bring it. (he does extend the Lanco 90 degree streak to 7 days tomorrow, however) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Though as a weather geek, my gut said it was going to hit. BUT, i never thought that bad. We checked in and went to our annual Pizza place after checking in, to drink High quality PBR and eat good pizza. They knew us and where we stayed and the server came over and said they had just called it. Lucky for us we had relatives who lived not far from where we stayed, so we all just went to there houses. We actually rode the storm out in a bar on the gulf coarse. Was a great time. I was only scared for a couple minutes. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only thing they had to clean up, was part of a brick wall from our hotel fell on their pool deck. when we drove back to town, it was like a war zone. Reminded me of the Camp Hill prison riots in the late 80s. My ex wife took the pictures with her or i would post them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Though it screwed up our vacation, we had a great time with an experience we probably will never have. the thing that sticks with me, i was standing on the beach looking at our hotel, and all the curtains like being sucked out the windows and doors because all the glass was gone. It looked a direct hit from a missle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
