The people who showed it tracking west through middle tn should be drawn and quartered.
You understand that W NC/E TN was screwed regardless where it tracked, right? Helene was a big storm. If you would look at the very first track issued by the NHC, back when Helene was still a PTC, they nailed the track. It wasn't just the NHC that had a very good forecast, the WPC and the local NWS office had great forecasts. When wording like, historic, generational, life-threatening, catastrophic, etc. are used in forecast discussions it means they know it will be bad.
Ignoring a forecast does not mean you weren't warned.

They forecasted possible catastrophic flooding and destruction for western NC/eastern TN more than 24 hours before the storm hit. That is a fact. What else were they supposed to do?

Ashley Schendel @schendel_ashley I’m honestly speechless. A massive thank you to @smcroasters for stepping up and checking on my dear friend Kakki and her family after Hurricane Helene. It’s moments like these that restore your faith in humanity. Yesterday, I posted hoping someone could help, and within hours, a kind soul went out to check on her—even leaving supplies when she wasn’t there. This morning, another incredible person showed up, brought gas, and confirmed she’s doing okay. It’s amazing how complete strangers can come together to help, simply because we asked. We really do live in a beautiful world

I think I told you a few years ago, boat, that you'd never be right and you'd always be blamed.

I like to rag on other forecasters as much as anyone but I’m not gonna let smoothbrains do it when it’s not warranted.

The NWS is right there with them but for some reason people will defend them to the grave. very cultish.
the people "defending" them understand that weather prediction is still guesswork and no where near dead-on balls accurate.

Stop throwing out phrases that you don’t understand. It’s not helping your argument.
