ATL: MATTHEW - Post-Tropical - Discussion

[Pughetime12]

Heavy rainfall in Mt. Pleasant, SC right now. Pretty decent wind gusts too.

Anyone on St Augustine or in the know please help. My bf parents refused to evacuate Anastasia Island.
Anyone know how high the water got near the ampitheater?

I hate to self-promote but I've put all the links for most TV stations and best Amateur Radio websites which have live video and audio in one place:

Anyone else thinking that once again (as in Floyd, or Irene, for instance) inland flooding might be the story of this storm (for the US at least)?

Here are projected rain totals in the Carolinas... and Eastern NC is already saturated.

That's not good. They have been inundated the past few weeks and I fear flooding will be a nightmare in the Low Country.

Nearly a 1000 dead in Haiti, I definitely think Matt will be retired.

Matthew replace Mitch in 2004 season.

Well....and now our power is out.

I honestly can't feel synpathy for anyone right along the coast in the clear danger zone who refused to evacuate in the face of a storm predicted to be as dangerous as this and then call for help when, surprise, the storm causes mayhem. But I do feel bad for emergency managers who have to respond to people not smart enough to get out of town...

In spite of their stupidity, I do feel sympathy for them. But I certainly echo your sentiments regarding the emergency managers.

Thanks Mark for the animation.

It loads fast for me on Storm2k but slower on other sites.

It's definitely needed right now as I sit on this bridge.

Really strong gusts coming straight down the Intracoastal Waterway.

stay safe. Hope you can post pictures later.

Latest pass by the P-3 had an extrapolated pressure down a bit to 946.5mb. Probably not a true decrease at the surface, but the core continues to hold itself together very well. Only 12 hours until landfall/closest approach to Charleston, so not a lot of time for substantial weakening at this point.

SFMR had surface winds again of 87 kt, very consistent with recent numbers.

Lol SE Florida back in the cone. That's funny. Round 2?

Thank you! I expect some of the stations to go offline soon in Savannah-SC area. Man this storm has been one for the record books when considering the number of people impacted from the Caribbean to the US.

Yes..look at the nhc track for matthew

[ddad040]

Fujiwhara ... Nichole and Mathew ??? Just a question?

Unlikely. Unless Nicole strengthens, it will probably dissipate first.

if it can make it to the gulf it can come back on the rebound

[Raebie]

SC and GA folks be safe...and let us know how you're doing. NC is watching closely.

I'm so tired of cleaning up and no power I just won't accept emotionally Matt looping back... Crazy, obviously a shell of his current self at that time...

[jasons2k]

I was just thinking...too bad Pat Prokop retired just last year. He was one of the more level-headed TV mets I've had the pleasure of seeing over the years. Best of luck to those along the GA/SC coasts. It's gonna be a long night ahead.
