The FV3, HRDPS and RGEM are showing a “firehose” setup like we saw with Matthew but for a much longer duration. The FV3 is showing 24-30 hours of it. Should be interesting to see if it verifies.

Yeah.... that "firehose" effect hammered houston with Harvey last year... multiple times I think. Just incredible rainfall rates with long duration.
 
After Looking at the GOES east satellite loop, she looks to be creeping west slightly sw
 
Holding steady at 105mph...

...700 PM POSITION UPDATE... ...SUSTAINED HURRICANE-FORCE WINDS APPROACHING CAPE LOOKOUT NORTH CAROLINA...
7:00 PM EDT Thu Sep 13
Location: 33.9°N 76.4°W
Moving: WNW at 5 mph
Min pressure: 955 mb
Max sustained: 105 mph
 
I swear the last few frames of radar ( time sensitive) it looks like it dropped SW!
 
It looks on satellite, eye is getting better organized! Radar not bad either
 
Would it be impossible for this to jump 20+ mph in strength before landfall? She’s got about 12-24 hours or so before landfall atleast?

Nothing is impossible, I could see it making LF at 110

Flo is looking healthy. Convection blew up fast and in a hurry around the eye. Not sure how much lower she can go with shallow water and coastline ahead but I will say this isn’t the worst she’s looked in the past 24 hours
 
This hurricane just doesn't play by the rules. Doesn't she know she's supposed to weaken as she approaches land ?
 
I heard someone on the radio say this thing would get back to cat4. It's possible but imo I don't see that happening

That's funny brick but really should be in banter.... while I'm at it Brick's not the only one that should utilize our Tropical Storm banter thread. Please respect our and those who read for updates request to keep banter in banter, including myself, admins and all mods. We all are guilty at times but this is about to get serious in some areas so thanks for understanding.

pressure down but the NHC lowers the winds

Doesn't make sense

Why even go up to 105 in the first place just to go back to 100?

Especially when buoy reports seem to support at least the 105 mph.... weird

ABC11 reporting almost 90k without power now, going to be a while for some of them to get power back hope they were prepared.
