Winds are up to 114 knots.
 
Already a cat 4 and still about 4 days from even being close to land. Unreal.
 
HWRF is absolutely clutch inside 12-24 hours. Even though it's a short-range forecast, you have to be extremely impressed w/ how well this model forecast virtually to a T this period of very rapid intensification that's still ongoing w/ Dorian.


So how well does it do with the track? And where does it show Dorian going in the latest run?

It’s important to take note models like HWRF have been the most accurate on strength so far. The global shaven team been anywhere close as far as strength goes.

Mods feel free to remove this question but assuming it takes the track going up the coast, would there be any major impacts in Western NC/SC?

Not really. Some rain and a breeze

Yes at least briefly I mean what’s stopping it from making it to cat 5?

Florida, upwelling during a stall, unexpected shear, EWRC and plenty more. Tomorrow doesn’t look as ideal tomorrow for RI. But looks better Sunday/Monday.
