  1. Both the 12z GFS and the ECMWF show an organized TC in the Southern Bahamas in the Day 9-10 time frame. Obviously a lot can change, including land interaction, but the setup is pretty intriguing for the East coast and New England with a well timed, relatively deep trough moving through the lakes. If the TC arrives early or the front speeds up, it could punt the storm OTS like the GFS. The Euro verbatim looks like it would be somewhat of a phase, similar to Floyd.
  2. Most of Abaco Island and Grand Bahama are already destroyed. The only downside is that it could stop some of the recovery effort, but the damage is already done.
  3. Things will change dramatically over the next few days. But what an ominous track/look on the day 10 Euro for the East coast with that deep trough digging in.
  4. It helps that the models aren't really developing the system until it reaches the islands and by then it's really far South and West for a recurve OTS.
  5. The track is almost identical to Wilma until it gets past Florida. System would have quite the PRE as well.
  6. The Euro keeps 94L weaker much longer, but still eventually develops the system North of the islands in about a week. The question from here is does the ridge over the Eastern US hold and push the steer the storm towards Florida or does the incoming trough pull it North at the last minute?
  7. It's the peak of Hurricane season. It would be abnormal if we didn't at least have a threat to track right now lol.
  8. 12z GFS still develops 94L as the system approaches the lesser Antilles, very close to where Dorian formed. The track is then close to Puerto Rico and Hispaniola.
  9. NHC gave it a 70% chance of development within 5 days. Spaghetti models are pretty locked into the idea of slow development and a West track.
  10. The current movement is at 45 degrees which means it's still on a Northeasterly track. But just like during Winter, we have influence from the high over Maine/SE Canada. That's helping to funnel dry air down through Western New England and the current dewpoints are a reflection of that. If we were truly going to get an impact, it would be much more humid than it is now. The trough is too far East for us to get much rain.
  11. The radar this morning reminds me of many coastal storms during the Winter that pounded the mid-atlantic while we smoked cirrus up here. You can blame the kicker coming out of the mid-west for the hard right turn.
  12. Verbatim it would be a good shellacking. Especially since a lot of the guidance deepens the storm again once past OBX.
  13. 12z HMON pummels Long Island and the Jersey shore on Friday into Saturday with heavy rain and 40-50mph winds.
  14. Don't think we need a separate thread for local impacts from Dorian but a lot of the latest guidance brings some direct impacts into the area, especially for Eastern sections.
  15. It's not even worth discussing but a track up the coast like that has been seen many times including most recently Irene. Biggest threat with those storms is inland river flooding. You really need a track like the 12z GFS showed yesterday to get meaningful storm surge into the NYC area and New England.
  16. The GFS develops the next wave coming off Africa. Takes a very similar track to Dorian. Ends up getting captured and rocketed up the coast lol
  17. Had almost 5” of rain in Mahwah for the 11/2-11/3 storm.
  18. "Shaking felt thousands of miles away, devastation from Boston to DC as 8.0 magnitude Earthquake strikes along the Ramapo fault in NJ"
  19. Is @HurricaneJosh still over in that region? If so, might as well hope over to Taiwan for the next one.
  20. He hasn’t posted anything on Twitter or Facebook for roughly seven hours. He said he was about to lose all connectivity and he was still well outside the eyewall. Probably one of his most dangerous chases ever given the remote location and intensity.
