Re: ATL: ARTHUR - Hurricane - Discussion
Stay safe those of you in the path of this storm. Praying for you all. I pulled out my favorite diagnostic tool, a piece of paper! Def has moved to the North-Northeast in the last few frames. My question is this, is the front strong enough to continue pushing Arthur further away from the coast, or even grab it and pull it away?

I'm at the north end of Topsail Island. Pretty strong squall moved through about an hour ago, ocean is churning. Most people here seem to be staying on the island.

Purely just my worry and is not grounded in any fact whatsoever.
I pray that Arthur does not break the streak of a hurricane making landfall on the U.S. officially as a major!
And just before/on the 4th of July NO LESS!

Yeah I'm sure they'll take care of them. I fed those kids at night for years during the 90's. Too bad that their camp experience is being truncated.

Re: ATL: ARTHUR - Hurricane - Discussion
Correct me if I'm wrong, but if it does strengthen to a Cat2 or just below Cat3, Arthur will be the strongest hurricane to hit the mainland United States since Ike in 2008.

Are they about to do a NW-SE pass?
That would be correct. Irene was 85 and Sandy/Isaac were both 80. So technically it's already the strongest since Ike to hit.

Re: ATL: ARTHUR - Hurricane - Discussion
Good long range radar loop view from ILM - my opinion that it might be showing more of a NE motion - let's hope so...

Re: ATL: ARTHUR - Hurricane - Discussion
I guess we're getting close to the point where wobbles one way or the other make a difference. Here's what the local ABC affiliate is predicting on wind impacts.

Sandy was technically not a hurricane at landfall and Irene hits as a 75kt Cat 1

The local BSA announced yesterday camps would be closed today.

Re: ATL: ARTHUR - Hurricane - Discussion
Arthur will make landfall, it won't stay offshore because it's too close already.

Yes, a right wobble would be good news - after my post last evening I checked the SST's in the warning area and actually the SST's are above normal even in the deeper ocean, and was hoping that outside of the Gulf Stream cooler pools of water would slow intensification (warmest ocean SST's are until August), but at least right at this moment Arthur isn't any stronger, so that's good...
