Kmlwx Posted August 23, 2011 Share Posted August 23, 2011 We still hve time... 50-75 mile shift west and we are good... oh wait, this isn't winter - I would think that with all the upper air data the ****s would probably relatively small from here on out. Could come back west a bit - I think what we want to keep an eye out for is for west jogs in the next little while. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ian Posted August 23, 2011 Author Share Posted August 23, 2011 my fish with arms has already spoken to Irene's fate. Good chance.. I'm 60/40 that I get little to nothing of note except maybe some satellite images that are cool. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scuddz Posted August 23, 2011 Share Posted August 23, 2011 Might just be a good time to go AWOL I actually have a feeling if it stays close that the sunday forecast is going to turn into one of our "Team Forecasts" and I'm gonna get shafted.

WVclimo Posted August 23, 2011 Share Posted August 23, 2011 As long as the dismal swamp fire is put out then SOME good will come from this! I've been hoping for that. I will be vacationing in Kitty Hawk, NC from Sept 10-15. Had a friend return from that area on Monday, and said when the winds came from the north, an acrid smoke smell was very noticeable. Said driving through SE VA, he had to use headlights during the day. Also hoping Irene doesn't do significant damage to the oceanfront home we'll be staying in.

Bodhi Cove Posted August 23, 2011 Share Posted August 23, 2011 Regarding the alarmist tone of the Associated Press release. If I am deciphering the information below correctly (please enlighten me if I'm not,) wouldn't it make more sense to reference the current likelihood (percentage chance) of the wind speed probabilities? For example; there is a about a 25% chance the Delmarva will experience 34 knot winds, with O.C. a 11% chance and Norfolk getting 50 knot winds. If the general public is given updates of the current percentage probabilities, instead of alarmist headlines and wording (like "devastating" and "catastrophic"), maybe they wouldn't flip out so quickly and needlessly. Just the opinion of a lurker, learner and a layman's view of the hoopla being stirred up. Take it for what its worth. Edit.. Cripes. My apologies guys. the mess below didn't look like that when I pasted it in.
