Hey type! Good to see you Man oh man....Wilmington NC here...i mean...i have never seen anything like this. Never. Its just impossible to be outside for a long time....have been to beach 3 times in past 10 days but even there...by 11 am...insane Will keep you updated.
Well, hellllloooo @jaywayne12! I hope all is well with you! I don't have any Central Air in my matchbox of a house, and it was sweltering today! I only have an AC in the bedroom and my Studio (which keeps me in there), but as active as I am, sometimes I just flat out can't handle the blazing heat. I detest the Summer and the sun, ugggghhh. I usually hike regardless, but today I said frig it and ran up and down both flights of stairs (basement to top floor) for a half hour until my legs screamed instead of going outside. I was sweating so much it was running in my eyes and making my eyes burn. I've been taking care of my next door neighbor's cat and his pool because he's been away the last few days and I cannon-balled in as soon as I was done, running clothes and all, haha.
Lol...hey jeto! Great to see you kiddo The heck with the cat but congrats on the pool! They say up north you guys get a break starting tomorrow...front comes through then stalls here...so we get on and off thunderstorms with heat still Great to see you jeto
Hi! I think we're supposed to be getting some T-Storms, too; which of course means the second I take one step in the woods the sky is going to split open, lol. Saw a big rattlesnake (6 footer) about a week ago so a lot of good my snake kit is doing me sitting in my glove compartment. Speaking of which, @FJF I picked up a pair of these last month: Crackshot Snake Gaiters. I like 'em pretty good so far. I had a great pair of LaCrosse Snake Boots with a great hard heel, but they sprung a leak after a year and I was so disappointed. I don't know, I find that their quality has gone down, so I tried Cabela's brand, and was disappointed in those for a different reason: the heel is soft like a work boot boot heel. :/
It’s crazy man. The actual temp isn’t even that high. But the feel like is terrible. First year I moved here we had 4 consecutive days with actual temp over 100, and it didn’t bother me as much.
Nice job wb...huge change from yestetdays models right? It is looking very likely for an east coast hit...although im not really leaning at florida. High pressure off the coast looks to retreat a bit...which might allow it to swing more north. The magnet setup which just seems like a fit here of sc to the outer banks of nc looks like the favorite...but its early. A few models want to bring this into the gulf....again...8 days out possibly 9. S Keep an eye out guys Now...here is a bonus...was checking winter long term setups.... A La Nina setup....below average precip to the south from southern ca to south carolina. Above average from northern pacific states to delaware. Great lakes area way above average... Below average temps off the eastern seaboard...again...great lakes areas What does this mean...not that much...but if you go by this...chicago area 200 miles east or west....heavy snow. Nyc metro? Could be snowy...but this set up is usually more rain and ice....snow changing to rain....but these setups usually do give the northeast several bombs...just not overall snowy winter. Great skiing vermont and new Hampshire But overall...central us gets clobbered.
Hey SB! It could...the current track by the nws is a true middle ground. No model ..no true model shows their track...either east or west of Florida in fact..the current track modeled by the nws could never really become a force...it hits ever island mountain region...wouldn't survive. Two things I have seen that vary from where we were yesterday is one...it's taking it's time developing. It's really getting beaten up...and that will improve later today. It will get it's act together for further strengthening tonight Which leads to number 2. The most important....because of that all models are digesting crap...and a north Carolina...a Georgia...a Florida...hell a new Orleans...are all in play. No real clarity whether it goes gulf or east coast for 48 hours Where SB has a great point is the trends...it's been a HUGE swing from out to sea heading towards Greenland to hitting Tampa Bay in just 24 hours My gut from the high off the southeast coast that is currently retreating still thinks no gulf...but I can easily be way off Something to track and follow and where this country is right now...this is NOT a needed event. Will check the 5 pm updates and will post.
I think it's moving too fast and not strong enough to get pulled poleward.... odds are playing pinball on the caribbean isles (hispaniola and cuba) will tear it apart..... I just hope theres enough NE wind fetch pointing at us for a day or two
I spent my entire youth climbing every nook i could find in the Catskills and never saw a rattle snake.
Could be...today is Wednesday? Gut feeling by this weekend it becomes a big story....now whether its justified or not...we will see. Really hope not here in Wilmington
Way east...again...this has "the magnet" or out to sea written all over it. Skirting Florida (how many times has that happened with magnet set ups) The magnet is myrtle beach to the outer banks...the curvature of this landscape is a bullseye for tropical systems IF...IF...the make the turn north. Only a Sandy setup can allow a storm once it passes the outer banks to hit virginia to nyc. Long islands location remains a shot. But again...the damn magnet....SC/NC border to the outer banks....or out to sea with plenty of beach erosion from florida to cape cod is the best case scenario....qnd here in wilmington nc? Give me a break....but yeah...bad feeling even this far out. The damn magnet. And the strength? Cat 2 or 3....but THIS means not much this far out.
Hey J...good tomsee gou Here is my advise for future meds...be ready...invest 93l is on the heels on this...and that too will...will develop And...august after that stays busy Something will hit...too much in favor od future development fo next 3 weeks Good news with this one is that it will now fight to stay alive...now may get beaten by wind shere...early
Similar track.... but I dont think I'll be rebuilding my house this time... hopefully too much shear once it moves north. HOT gulf stream will juice up to cane status, but atmospheric conditions will prob limit it. was looking forward to a weekend of good surf.... but now it looks like hard onshores and rain.... I just want some cat 4 "FISH" storms like we used to get Terrapin IPA & Bulleit were on sale at Publix at least
