Tropical Major Hurricane Helene

[Drizzle Snizzle]

Winds gusting to tropical storm force (39 MPH) as far east as Myrtle Beach for a storm landfalling in the Gulf is crazy. Haven’t seen a wind field this large in a long time.

Dang thats about 400 miles east of the center.

Hey Jimmy. I just commented last night on how I haven't seen you in a while and hoped you were ok.

Radar estimates to my southwest show spotty areas also getting 4" of rain. It's possible, I guess. I'll see how it shakes out in the end.

Experiment Station has 2.18

Thanks for checking in brother. I’ve just been busy. Preoccupied. I’m looking to get back in the swing of things here when winter gets going. I’ve missed you guys on here just a little bit. Hope I haven’t missed too much

I know this is the **CURRENT*** steering map but IMHO its hard to ignore the global models easterly track...either way.. yall need to be prepared for this strengthening hurricane at landfall.

I am thinking they and the hurricane models are relying on this soon to be cut off ULL to deepen in a neutral state beyond what the globals are seeing.

I do not buy it.

I also do not have a pHD in tropical meteorology

Does anyone know what year (I know just few years ago) That a TS hit the upstate of SC? I remember we had very strong winds and lots of Rain.

I do wonder if nhc is expecting more of a satellite type interaction between the ull and tc where the ull dives more S than SE and hooks the TC more N and NW than modeled in the globals

I'm going to trust you over the people at the NHC because you seem pretty smart.

Don't do that.

Euro has the ULL drift a smidge west, but the end result is the same:
