Regarding that Atlanta/Outer Banks idea from earlier... the ICON Model (the one that was correct for Texas back in June) is
now forecasting a 960 mb landfalling hurricane up near Wilmington, NC for the middle of the night Wednesday/Thursday... that would be around a Cat 3 storm.
It's not a certainty, of course, but enough for y'all in that area to take heed.
