With typhoon/cyclone/hurricane season in full swing we should probably have a thread dedicated to that, especially with the high potential for nice strong hurricane for the east coast. Anyway, I'll start by posting this video from 2015 when Su'ao got clobbered by typhoon Dujuan.

Maybe the title should be tropical storm thread? Hurricane affect outside the tropics; and tropical weather sounds like all tropical weather.

"fun" path with a double landfall. A bit Harvey-like

How far do ex tropical systems extend towards the poles? The centres of ex-cyclones can move directly overhead here at times, bringing heavy rain, wind and big seas-I'm guessing they would reach up to NW Europe at times, or southern BC perhaps? Will have to read up on South America too. Remnants can head towards the UK, perhaps Scandinavia in extreme cases, so maybe 60 N? I don't think ex-cyclones hit South America too often, water is too cold and too much high pressure there. Although I'm not sure how often tropical cyclones hit Brazil.

really fast re-intensfication. And weakening
usually weaking doesn't occur at high sea temperatures

if this pans would be a nasty disaster. Harvey repeat over eastern North Carolina. Big blocking high pressure to the north which brings up high dewpoints up north giant ridge up north, like most of late summer

My brother down in Norfolk doesn’t seem like he’ll be affected too much. NWS is forecasting 2.5-4.0” (60-100 mm) through Saturday night for them and peak winds only in the 50s mph so they’ll probably some minor flooding and shit but the core of the hurricane is well south of him.

The Helene hurricane looked quite far east, especially considering how dry Cape Verde is year round...
So essentially 570 mm forecast for Wilmington in three days. That's above the average for a full year in my entire region!

Good chunk of the coast forecast to get 20+ inches; still not as bad as 50+ Harvey brought. Precipitation map from NWS High pressure over the Northeast holding it in place. Cloudy today, why are we getting clouds and high pressure [yes I know it can happen]. Could be the edge of the hurricane Today's weather map

Yikes. Flooding will get much worse. Incredibly, the high-resolution HRRR model predicts that 20” or more of additional rain will fall in the period from 8 am Saturday through 5 pm Sunday across a swath stretching north and west from Wilmington (see Figure 2 below). Wilmington received 0.02” on Tuesday, 0.60” on Wednesday, 1.50” on Thursday, and 9.58” on Friday, plus more than 3” through late morning Saturday, so it’s quite possible the city will top 30” for its storm total if the HRRR is correct. www.wunderground.com/cat6/Dire-Flood-Threat-Carolinas-Florences-Rains-Continuefrom the link via tropicaltidbits, map of remaining rain of the storm till Sunday afternoon

Massachusetts no longer forecast to get rain from Florence; sunny and dry instead. Edit: never it's still getting rain just a day or two past when this map ends. This rainfall map doesn't count the rain that has already fallen in North Carolina (up to 30 inches so far)
