...HELENE PRODUCING DAMAGING GUSTY WINDS AND LIFE-THREATENING FLOODING OVER PORTIONS OF THE SOUTHEAST AND SOUTHERN APPALACHIANS... ...FLASH FLOOD EMERGENCY IN EFFECT FOR METROPOLITAN ATLANTA...
8:00 AM EDT Fri Sep 27
Location: 34.2°N 83.0°W
Moving: N at 30 mph
Min pressure: 972 mb
Max sustained: 60 mph
 
WRAL in house model showing 40-50 mph gust across central NC, mostly with that squall line later but they stated this is due to center being further east than anticipated. Are we the only one's that looked at the globals and saw this coming? Lol
 
The eyewall is no joke. I made it the entire storm with power and as soon as we were on the last leg the power goes out about 15-20 minutes ago. The wind is blaring right now and. It’s been raining for about 36 hours straight at least but for the last 6 hours we have been getting hit with constant bands even before the eye wall got here

Take this band seriously. Woke me straight up around 530am. One of those cells produced a mesovortex spin in which the winds were easily gusting to hurricane force. Extremely wild watching the intense blinding rain spin around in front of the large parking lights. Hadn't been that nervous since Dorian

So I guess this is literally the calm before the storm here.
