a very weak short lived sheared storm. Helps to pad the season name count for those screaming “climate change”
(Bonnie also another one)
Hubby asked me this morning why it was overcast and rainy this morning. Original forecasts did not predict this type of weather- this explains it :0)
WOW! That’s pretty amazing.
At first, I thought that “X” was the current location and they were talking about the landfall in Colin as their prediction.
If they understood the weather that well, I might start believing some of their Global Warming predictions.

Waiting for it in the Northern Outer Banks. Check in and check out traffic bad enough on a normal 7/4 weekend. Starting to get messy right now at 10:30.
Thanks for the ping!

This is a sneaker storm.
I wonder how many people are going to lose their tent camping on the beach at Cape Lookout. July 4 is a huge week for that and the park isn’t evacuating.

Remnants Of Colin Discussion Number 5 NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL AL032022 500 AM EDT Sun Jul 03 2022
Colin no longer has a discernible center or closed circulation in satellite imagery or surface observations, and it has therefore dissipated over eastern North Carolina. The remnants are generating a line of convection mainly offshore the North Carolina coast, where buoy reports and earlier ASCAT data indicate that maximum winds are now down to 25 kt.
Colin's remnants are moving a little faster toward the northeast (055/9 kt) and are expected to turn east-northeastward and accelerate soon, crossing the Outer Banks and emerging over the Atlantic waters this afternoon. The remnants are then expected to merge with a frontal system over the western Atlantic in about 24 hours.
This is the last advisory on Colin. For additional information, please see products issued by the local National Weather Service forecast offices in Morehead City and Wilmington, North Carolina.
