From N at 26 mph

Starting to see some outer bain rain in areas around here... I hope it doesnt take a westerly wobble for some reason... holding up well though overall.

Here's some measured data from my home on Topsail Island. This updates every 5 minutes as long as power holds out....

Bluewater Bay, FL 95F and very dry. Dew point is only about 65F right now, which is a nice change from August when it never seems to get below 76F.

Local news is trying to spread the word that weather conditions are favorable for wildfires, and to delay burning when possible.

We could use some rain here in Houma, just not the tropical kind.

Moderate to heavy rain, guesstimate winds at aprox 25-30, with stronger gusts. have already lost power once, but back on again.

Rain in the Triangle, 81 and muggy.. From the regional doppler radar, looks like the band that drenched Greenville may have made its way west to the Triangle.

And looking outside -- it's raining again. Good thing, I went to my umbrella out of the car during break. . .

just got back from the pier--the ocean is really getting rough and we are going to have a hight tide--talked to the beach patrol and they are saying 4-6 feet above normal
there is a mandatory evacuation of all non residents that must start at 6 p.m.--the clouds are really getting darker and rain is on the horizon--getting ready to put the storm shutters up

Based on 4PM radar echo observations, the center of "O" now appears to be close to 32.7N, -78.3W. If this is an accurate read, "O's" motion remains NNW since last reported position at 11AM. This translates to about a 28 mile move.

In Wilmington (near Wrightsville Beach) , we are at the doorstep of the main feeder bands surrounding "O's" center. Think we'll see the heavy rain squalls / increasing wind here by 5PM.

[Okibeach]

Starting to get cranked up here. Rain has been non-stop and heavy for a while now and winds are probably sustaining 35-40mph, with some much higher gusts. Imagine power will be gone shortly.


edit-news anchor at wrightsville reported 65mph gust.

[ncbird]

Just kind of breezy here, with gusts to the 20's, but getting some pretty good rain with this band. Looks as if it going to be a long day and night tonight as they have moved the time tables again. Local met is now saying this is not going to be off our coast until late Thursday.

Okibeach you stay safe out there....

[Skyline]

Squally and gusty. 20-30 mph with higher gusts maybe. Power is still on. I got-up early to make COFFEE YES YES YES!!!!! Okay sorry about that. . . but if you are a coffee drinker and well you know what I'm talking about. . .

The local officials are saying it will be bad between 10am est and tonight. I hope it does not get much worst. Streets are flooding along with yards. We are with-in 1/2 mile of the ocean.

Girlfriend could sleep thru artillery assault.

Thanks, definetely starting to get a bit intense now. Amazed the power is on, guess all the recent undergrounding of power lines on the island is paying some dividends.

we just had the storngest gust--almost to 50 -- the rain is hard and we are concerned about the next high tide which will be around 5 p.m. and this will be close to when the storm approaches us--also this is one of the higher tides of the year..
