5PM NOAA Advisory up to 110 - looks like a do or die for Dorian ramping up, thankfully not much time to do it though!

RI with a wind field this broad? Seems unlikely. But obviously that would be one of the factors that the model considers

18Z GFS a bit stronger... still very close to the coast

[boulderrr]

GFS slightly faster, slightly stronger, and slightly closer to the coast. Trend from 12Z to 18Z:

Seems like the bulk of the main global models bring it right on or over the OBX, but the NHC doesn't. Is it because the TVCN is offshore?

The official NHC track update at 5PM has the core passing over the OBX, slightly north of the TVCN at the 24-48 hour markers:

The track guidance remains very
tightly clustered, and the new forecast track is little changed from
the previous forecast. It should be noted that the track is close
to and almost parallel to the coast of the southeastern United
State, and any deviation to the left of the track could bring the
center onshore anywhere in the Carolinas.

Well, there's an 89% chance that RI will not occur according to SHIPS, so it is very unlikely. The fact it could happen at all is kind of scary though

That whole naked swirl thing people were joking about last night isn't still on the table is it? No?

Not once it started moving more than 0.1mph out of its upwelled water.

To stay on the theme of the thread, I'll just say that I haven't personally seen any model support for that, lol

I don’t understand. Where’s the huge west shift?

Thanks for posting and impacts to New England this run?

North Carolina. 6z, 12z, and now 18Z each has shifted west.

Not huge in terms of distance, but it's significant in terms of impact potential. That angle of approach would cause much worse wind and surage damage along the coast

No.. It curves back a bit and goes inland near Halifax NS.
