looks west
 
Looking at the projected hydrographs out of RAH for NC, it looks like pretty much every major river ends up in at least minor flood stage again. That end of September lull couldn't have been more perfectly timed following Florence.

**STEERING MAP UPDATE**
We are going to compare the 00z and 03z Steering maps. I will post the old (0z) vs new(3z).....hint hint....the trof is having a hard time cutting into that western edge of the ridge so far** I know that will change soon though.

HWRF gets this down to 925mb by landfall and HMON has it at 928mb.

Both strongest landfalls yet. HMON is an insane 165knts at 850mb which probably be higher than that 135knts it has at the surface. First Cat 5 hit ive seen.

Sheash HWRF is 163knts at 850mb right before landfall. Possibly both models showing a Cat 5 hit.

So would that support NNW/N little longer?
 
Tops look to be cooling around the southeastern to northern side now too. Crunch time.

It’s a reach, but at this rate I don’t know that we can rule out anything sub 930mb before landfall. I just don’t see anything that could hinder Michael at this point besides the panhandle of Florida after it rips it to shreds
 
EURO looks a bit W...or NW from previous run so far. Waiting on the better maps first.
