Tropical Major Hurricane Michael

Also Michael is starting to pivot looks like to me, for a while there I thought it was going to rocket up into Va
 
still have power at the office, and the house seems good too since I was able to check in on the dog and give her some treats with the pet-cam. Has quieted down a bit again over here, skies have brightened too.

Wow look at those cooling cloud tops on the backside due to interaction with the front, starting to think some of those HRRR gust might be realized later...

HRRR is not showing the insane wind gust it was earlier, still some 50-60 mph gust but that's nothing like it was showing...

The HRRR did have a huge overmixing bias w/ one of the CAD events around here last winter but I'm not sure which one it was though, may have been this little guy in February.

Still need to be prepared, just look at the numerous 60 mph reports out in the Triad and the problems it's causing. And those cooling cloud tops, who knows the HRRR maybe underdoing it now

Would the lack of any spinning up so far imply, or support, anything having changed in a meteorological context?

Or is it just one of those things NC lucks out on so far?
