Really sucks as I leave town for aweek Friday and get married Sunday. Hoping I dont come home to a flooded house!
Yep, and when my wife died 15 years ago I said I would never do it again.
Never say never
Just hope the Biltmore Estate doesnt get flooded Sunday!
Married? Have you completely lost it Mike?
You know what they say? Two incomes are better than One!!
Congratulations Mike
Congrats!!! Mike! I hope only the best for you both and I just wanted to say that is a beautiful area to get married.
Congrats Mike! I wasn't sure you were serious at first.
Yea, I think I would be scared to do it again...
Congratulations to you guys - she's getting one heck of a guy !

SIGNIFICANT DEVELOPMENTs - The 12z SUNDAY ECMWF has come out and there are SIGNIFICANT developments .
1 . The european model again holds course with a direct hit Wilmington NC at 955 mb ( more or less) whch would place Florence as strong cat3.
2 The Operational GFS is deeply flawed and very likely to be wrong and has no support for any other model of any kind. It should be ignored. That being said many of the local TV station will keep talking about it . Even the upgraded new GFS -- the GFS FV3- now agrees with the European model track
3 From there Florence Tracks NW around the western side of the ridge tracking close to between Raleigh and Charlotte into or over Greensboro NC
4 Florence moves NW into sw VA then dies . This results in massive rains of 12-25 inches of rain over nw NC north central NC all of southwest Va and all of Shenandoah valley. This will lead to catastrophic flooding for some .. This would include the metro areas of the of Greensboro Winston Salem and High Point .. Wytheville Blacksburg Roanoke Martinsville Danville South Boston Lynchburg Bedford Farmville ... Charlottesville Waynesboro Staunton Lexington Harrisonburg ....and the far southeastern third of West Virginia including areas such as Bluefield Princeton Lewisburg and maybe snowshoe WVA.
5 From I-95 east rainfall conditions are much different with rainfall amounts generally under under 5" and the winds would not probably reach over 45 miles an hour during the height of event. This would be a major break for all of Hampton Roads ...Richmond metro and northeast and North Carolina as well as the entire Chesapeake Bay and the Delmarva
6 Taken Verbatim 12z Sunday European Model has Florence taking a track a very similar to what we saw with hurricane Fran 1996. The main difference here is that Florence stalls over sw VA. IF this is correct- IF- Florence is NOT going to be that bad for eastern half of VA & northeast NC
doesn't look too bad for asheville but hip waders might be needed to carry the bride over the threshold once back home
Sounds like Asheville is going to be a good evacuation route!
Congratulations! ... can't help but wonder if you wrapped the wedding bands yourself, what with all the modding and DIYing you do
Not the wedding bands, but I did design her a pendant for a necklace. Did it in wax, then had in cast in gold via the "Lost Wax" casting method.Congratulations! ... can't help but wonder if you wrapped the wedding bands yourself, what with all the modding and DIYing you do
