Yeah. Unfortunately, our grid is in no shape to take this type of hit. Neither are the trees for that matter. Likewise, we have to remember that this begins to slow down significantly at our latitude and this could significantly prolong impacts.
-
Ill be honest, I believe we should be preparing for this possibility. It will not take much for this thing to strengthen to this, especially over the gulf stream.
-
And then politicians look at us and go why didn't you prepare us for this?
-
Very much appreciated, thank you.

Our infrastructure is horrific. Tree trimming has not been kept up with. Poles and lines are old. Trees are still ripe for destruction.

Serious question... What are your thoughts? Would be helpful for some decision making for clients/red cross.
-
Given the synoptic set up, I would think they have the right idea... Thoughts?

Very much so. Unfortunately, this is why I am expecting LI to take a hard hit.

TBH, I do not see anyway for this to escape. The NAO is plummeting, allowing the HP to flex West. The Northern and Southern HP are already connecting. I just do not see this being able to escape.

This is really giving me a C LI bullseye feel.

Correct. While this is the potential for a person or two to be found alive, this is a slim possibility as well. The likelihood is that all persons missing are deceased.

@weatherwiz @CoastalWx @Typhoon Tip or anyone else who may know... Completely OT question. Are damage survey teams made up strictly of meteorologists?

Did someone say CG?

Soundings would say only the sfc goes above freezing, if at all. A good quick thump would cool the column. Plus, waters are not nearly as warm as a month ago.

Its more about being a strung out mess than suppression here. The stronger the LP, the more it will push N, NW. It has the room at H5. -

That damn nws... Nvm. On a more serious note, has anyone been looking at the gulf? Things exploding. I wouldn't be surprised to see those 1 inch contours shift north in real time -
Feb 18-19 long duration manageable snow and ice event
USCG RS replied to wdrag's topic in New York City Metro
Comes down to duration. Need to hit 6 inches avg in 12 hours or 8 inches average in 24. The average of 5-9 is 7. So it falls short as this is longer than 12 hrs. -

I remember this as well. Yaphank was getting slammed with heavy snow and then you went 8-10 miles west and it was nothing.
