e/e rule..

im increasingly confident parts of the dc area will get a solid rain event and probably some good wind (though maybe the worst as rain winds down?). now the gfs can go east. :snowman:

Going to be watching this carefully. I'm in SBY, which according to the 00z GFS will be sitting in the eyewall. First hurricane for which I'll be a homeowner too...sorta takes the fun out of it.

My ears first perked up when I saw the Euro and GFS/EnKF this afternoon, but I figured it might just be a blip...so much for that.

Nice precip shield expansion into the DC area. 4-5 inches DC eastward but sharp gradient. Seems the models are having a relatively rough time narrowing down a specific track/intensity with this storm.

I am almost for sure headed to Annapolis Saturday evening or Sunday morning (as long as it is clear by then that the rain shield makes it all the way over to us) with a couple of friends. Anyone want to join us? It's actually a pretty decent place to watch a tropical system or remnant for being so close to the DC. During Ernesto, I got to wade in the 4' storm surge as the water went in many close-to-dock restaurants and bars. Also, the winds were strong right on the water. The period of NE winds ahead of the storm will definitely bulge the Bay.
