I'd like to see intensity of at least a 4, before thinking about a ragged multi-landfall cane on a NNE to possibly NE heading, making it up here with any gusto. I mean, Donna is the only one I can think of.
I want a pure tropical system. That track is impossible in early August. let's save the 38 type strike for late Sept. or Oct. Perhaps some wrap around snows like 1804
No power for two weeks after Bob and it was fine, though we drove home where there was power , twice. When i lived in NH I lost power for 8 days in February 2010? 2011? With the 75mph winds. that was worse as it was fairly cold (though probably AN). No big deal once you adjust to roughing it.
