Dry air getting choked out.....maybe its finally go time....

 

[deltadog03]

it looks like to me it’s finally trying to get its act together now. I would favor the global model ideas vs the spaghetti plots.

A tick east, but man these corrected hurricane tracks just won't cave even within 24 hours. Wild.

That's more than a tick.....it's a big jump. See comparison to 18z

Glad I don’t live in Tallahassee anymore. I remember when I moved there in 2016, they hadn’t had a direct hit from a hurricane in over three decades. Then literally months later they had Hermine, then Michael (not a direct hit but still) while I was still there, and now this.

Yeah, they have been correcting east since 18Z. I was referring to the 06Z plots. I suspect the eastward shifts aren't done yet.

Not as low as HWRF and HMON have in forecasts.....964 compared to 955/957.

Pretty solid

For NC peeps (especially central/eastern), HRRR still showing a solid severe threat tomorrow with a good number of spin-ups.

That track has produced many tornadoes in the past. I was in one while working on the ramp at RDU. It looked like a white sheet coming up the runway.

I'm not writing any possibility off until tonight for anywhere in GA. This is the most critical time to see what Helene does. A 2 now can mean anything from a 2 to a 4 at landfall tonight especially if deep RI is starting soon. I hope it's not bad but I don't think we should jump to conclusions just yet.

 

[Wild Weather Monger]

A tick NW of the 06Z run, but yet again, east of the NHC cone. Yes, it's the NAM, yada, yada, yada. This is a 15-hour forecast.

What are you talking about? Or is this in general a “in my backyard”?

It'll be interesting to see what the schools do here.

Unlike the others the NAM is picking up on a stronger trough out west. Has been for several hours now.
