Stupid trees. Hey Isaias, can you take care of those while your in the area?
KLTX overshooting tops, intentional or not, does appear we will have a strengthening storm up to landfall in the next couple hours. Picking up 110mph pixels on the super res vel scans on the NE side.
Yeah I'm in Mount Pleasant and I would say the highest wind gust was probably 35 or 40mph. And same here the sun came out at the very end..

Currently at our place on OKI. If landfall projections are correct, I’ll be on that NE side shortly. We’ll find out!

Wow that eastern eyewall means business. Widespread 100-120mph winds only 5-6k feet up. Yikes.

real question is what does that translate to on the ground when the center is over central NC.....how does this deepening into landfall impact the potential winds...just how crazy are the wind clown maps....I am guessing folks from I-95 to Hwy 17 see a period of 4-5 hrs of gust 50-75 mph....I guess a few places could see higher in the event the mystical and rare "sting" jet comes into play though I dont think that is likely this far south....still PGV will gust higher than it did in Flo or Dorian ( low 50's).....maybe even Irene ( 73)........

James Island as well. The high wind gust was like 40 mph or so. Maybe 1” or so of rain. Needed a good soaking rain like this, but pretty much was limited to daylight only. 8-9 hours.
There have been thunderstorms with more rain than that in a hour here this year.

Looking at the webcam at the campground I stay at in North Myrtle and it looks like it is flooding.

Any GIS folks out there? Looking for a map service that only shows tropical watches and warnings. The current NWS service has all weather types. Using services from weather.gov/gis

Oh my word guys, recon just flew through this. Almost 120kts at flight level and 75kts at the surface.

That supports an 85-90mph hurricane based off SFMR and flight level winds.
I use Python and list the types I want to map.

That sounds boring, too.
Pouring, at least according to my new Weatherflow Tempest! ?
My power just flickered on, and off.
Not trying to bust anyone’s balls but flood watch now dropped here in the west as the main event was much earlier like I said. Attention is shifting East, hope Raleigh gets on the board I’ve had enough rain.
Wake, particularly the eastern half is in a very good spot, I think the county as whole does solid for 3-4”, eastern parts closer to 6”.

So is myrtle beach technically in the eye? Since they appear to be in that clear ring?

Inner core continuing to wrap up, landfall within the next hour or two, Little River to Oak Island. Oak Island will be the epicenter for right front of a 80-85 mph cat 1.

I think the smaller circle SE is the eye.

What kinda man doesn’t get lead in the pencil from guns? You should stop by on your way to OBX and I’ll show you the error of your ways.
I actually just created a filter in ArcGIS Online that worked (filtered on Hurricane and Tropical). I need this to stay live. I'm assuming your using Python to export it to a file geodatabase. Correct?
