It supposed to turn and miss US apparently 

Somehow most news stations fail to mention anything but the 5 day forcast which shows it headed right at the US.  Shocking that they might put the worst face on something just to sell some viewers huh?

 

But in Ventusky I trust.  I think you sent me a link to it last year LD.

The GFS has it shooting the gap between Bermuda and the mainland US, which is the best scenario imo.  A couple of the models have it getting scarily close to the east coast before it whips out to sea.  I hope it doesn't threaten land until sufficiently weak, because that storm could be a real monster.  A landfalling category 4 in the Carolinas would be catastrophic.

Cat 4 landfalling anywhere would be catastrophic. Hopefully the US doesn't see any hurricanes that strong anytime soon.

Lee also became one of the fastest-intensifying Atlantic hurricanes on record, its peak winds increasing from 80 to 165 mph in a day. This rate of strengthening was the most extreme on record for any Atlantic storm east of the Caribbean, according to Kieran Bhatia, a meteorologist for the reinsurance brokerage Guy Carpenter. Only a few storms in the Caribbean and Gulf of Mexico have intensified more quickly.

Local weatherman: "Welcome to today's forecast and a look at Hurricane Lee, sponsored by Kroger Foods. Looks like we may have some of the outer bands of Lee effecting parts of the state. Get out now and stock up on water and other essentials for a couple days. And, remember, Kroger has everything you need..."

 

sounds a bit disingenuous at this point

tropical storm incoming to eastern NC.  Ventusky is showing it making landfall between ILM and Jacksonville about 5 am Saturday morning

I think Ophelia has took some people by surprise. On the weather this morning they were saying it wouldn't quite get tropical storm strength. On the weather a few minutes ago they were saying it might hit cat 1 strength before it hits land now. It got strong quick today.

National Hurricane Center's 5:00 update has it at 70 MPH max sustained winds.  It could easily reach hurricane strength before landfall.  Some parts of southeast NC will probably get hurricane force winds.

      Easily. To be able to plug in a backup LT without much drop off from your starter? That could mean the difference between playoffs or sitting at home in January. Good/serviceable smart young and healthy LTs that won’t lose you a ball game at reasonable $$ don’t just come along every day. Everyone talks about the most important positions on a football team… backup LT is in the top 10.  Picture next year… the team is scrappy and competitive, 4 and 3 record, second place in the South. Morale is good. devastating run game that Let’s our marginal defense get plenty of rest. We play the Bucs and win, going to 5 and 3, but we lose Ickey to a high ankle sprain. Atl loses that week and are now at 5 and 3 as well. There is no Ickey and no BC because we let him go… and we go in to Atl the next week for a battle of first in the south. Week after that is the Jets…. Now they lose both by 10 and 3, respectively, and fall to 5 and 5 going in to their bye week. Atl is at 7 and 3. Out of typical Panthers desperation, they try to rush Ickey back in to the lineup with a saints game coming up…  Back to good old Panthers football, always playing catchup. Another season at .500 and the fans sadly rejoice in mediocrity, when playoffs were in reach. This team always overestimates its ability to pick up quality o line depth in the draft or FA and it always blows up in their faces. Like Chuba, I see him as being part of the core that Dan is trying to build. Work on his contract now and see if we can come out with something mutually beneficial. I’d consider 3 yrs at $25m to be very fair.

      it would be great to have "double trouble" again, I even had a T- shirt for Williams and Stewart and the double trouble logo, was a great time to be Panthers fan. We shall see...
