When will the NHC start with the 3 hour intermediate advisories. I know they have rules and procedures they follow with this stuff, issuing watches, etc, but should they early issue something to kind of make sure people are paying attention?


3 hour public advisories will begin when a tropical conditions watch has been issued. Probably won't see any watches issued until Tuesday morning according to the NHC, so the 3 hour updates should start then.

Winston-Salem should be fine, right?


Just spoke with my aunt in Winston-Salem and she said they expect some rain as it will linger for a few days but hopefully not too much wind.

NW eyewall drop. If Florence just maintains her integrity over the next few hours we'll likely see some of those 133 kt (154 mph) winds work their way to the surface.

It seems like the bad weather lately wants to hit areas that are already hit hard.

another plane just took off from Florida headed to Florence... but it looks like this is high level recon and it probably won't enter the storm

12z Euro cutting way back on rain totals, looks like widespread 15-18" but not seeing any 30-40"+ totals through Day 7 like on the 00z run.

I just hit "Request Admin" --> Sticky Thread on the OP. I would guess that the more people who do that, the more likely they'll sticky it. Maybe not though

Seriously though, I talked to a friend at Fort Bragg Saturday and he had no idea there was a storm on the way before talking with me, and he's an officer.


Tell him he needs to talk more to his E-7s and -8s.

Euro wind gusts at 7PM Thursday evening:



That's a 159 mph wind gust in Wilmington, the max on the map.

Still expected to pack quite the punch as it moves inland. This is the wind gusts 9 hours later:

There is another one en route that just took off out of Savannah. I'd imagine it is low level reconnaissance.

Has anyone seen local rainfall estimates based on new runs? I am in Columbia, SC and know we will get some rain. I am not concerned as much with rising rivers as I am with local totals flooding my neighborhood.

Based on that latest model above I'd guess 3 to 5 inches.

Why do you think that is? Faster motion? Or does moisture get cut off once inland?
