Tropical Major Hurricane Florence

What is your storm total ?
Not 100% certain since I was a dummy and got the wrong batteries for my weather station to back up I lost data for a good part of yesterday. I think a safe guess is 4-4.5. There is a corcorahs report just a couple of miles away of 3.8 and that was through 7am

How likely is it that the upper winds will work down to the surface as the Euro is showing? I didn't find any other models that were showing 50-70 mph winds at the surface in the western half of NC.

Euro has been high on gusts I think the 0z run friday said 80mph gusts here. But there is still some potential for high gusts especially as you increase your precip rates and/or elevation.

Euro shows tightening of gradient between Florence and mountains creating alignment for transfer to surface of strong winds upstate SC in NC, Wind gust 50-70 mph this afternoon and tonight well inland( all the way to Charolotte/Greenville, Spartanburg. Tornado threat increasing

No way! TWC says my highest gust will be 30mph!? JB hype meter, pegged at 10!
 
This wind has been a warm wind. The low temp today was 82. So weird that considering a north wind, it's been a warm wind.
 
The arw2 might be the closest model I've seen to reality on this band

Yeah. The 3k NAM has it well south at hour 1. Does it have the right coordinates in its code?

Slight shift northward with the mega firehouse...
