One positive thing! We are learning that the FV3 is actually going to be useful for us! It's been a while since I've been able to look at an American model and think it could really be on to something alongside the Euro. Yeah, the Euro is still better, but it's nice to see this upgrade possibly performing better with something as wonky as this system vs the current GFS.
Let me restate. I wasn't comparing to prior UKMET runs. I meant the 12 UKMET didn't have nearly the drop in latitude that the recent GFS and Euro runs have had down to latitude of lower SC or northern coast of GA. Of course, the UKMET has been horrible but that's beside the point.
The 12Z UKMET moves only a little SW (down only 0.4 degrees latitude from 34.0 to 33.6N

Thoughts and prayers in advance to those that live in Eastern NC, especially SE. This is going to be a pretty dangerous storm and I hope it isn't as damaging as it could be.
I guess I’m looking at the wrong run cause whatever run this was was well south of the gfs

Charlie,
Something doesn't jibe with your image. Here is the 12Z UKMET:

Yes, this is the track. It doesn't go nearly as far south as the GFS/Euro runs..

See what the Euro shows shortly but as of now it appears all modeling is zeroing in on Wilmington and actually making landfall

Both the HMonster and the HWTF models are north with landfall and their eventual track through SE NC and NE SC. They still eventually seem to sink south into mid-SC, but it looks a bit delayed and maybe not as sharp.
HWRF has Florence heading south in South Carolina at 63 hours.
HMON has Florence in Georgia very weak at 90 hours.
HMON has Florence in Georgia very weak at 90 hours.
The Canadian is still sticking to it's guns with stalling in southern NC. Would be really bad for the Triangle. Fortunately, it's probably garbage, although, like I always say...the Canadians know ridging in SE Canada eh!
HWRF has Florence as a strong tropical storm entering eastern Georgia at 81 hours.

That's horrible. The storm surge is going to be massive with this due to the size and duration of the wind and those houses will probably be gone by the time this is over... wow.
HWRF has Florence moving over North Georgia at 93 hours.
So, it is largely now the GFS/Euro (especially Euro/EPS) against the others as far as the chance for CHS south to be very heavily impacted, especially CHS. Personally, I don't recall the last Euro that is this important other than the one from 0Z today.
