Wind field of hurricane force winds
Expanded quite a bit in all directions.

The inner eye wall looking stronger and stronger.

I’ve been wrong on predicting intensification all through this storm but there appears to be thunderstorms blowing up around the eye again and maybe a slight northward jog?

IDK, it looks wnw to me, but I'm tired also lol.

Trust me, I’m not a Brick alias. He posts on a sports board I’m on and his posts brought me here for updates since I’m in Charleston and wanted to see what was going on. I just hate when people get excited about rain when it means people on the coast get nailed.

So I'm not the only one that found his way over here via his posts over there?

Makes it solidly ashore at 33. 18z did not. At 34, it is still going due west. 18z turned south hard in the next frame or two.

Stairstepping but averaged out has been NW on a heading for Wilmington area.

Let's keep the banter, weird comments, and conspiracy theories out of the main thread please.

You are now in the FEMA red zone. It was a good run.

985 is not beast mode. That’s a good thing.

So we are looking at a cat 1 or possibly cat 2 at ILM?

Really expands the wind field after landfall, heck even some significant gust up this way

Big core of 70-85kt 925s pushing inland. Probably getting areas of 60-70 mph gusts well inland per the nam

Shane mentioned this earlier and I'm with him not sure how accurate these sim IR images are, but the hi res NAM also looks like garbage now but ends up like this..... I'm sure it will not happen but never let your guard down completely.
