sauss06 Posted August 25, 2011 Share Posted August 25, 2011 i think you should rush right in and strap yourself out on the pier with a helmet cam on so we all have a live feed? whaddya say? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stormtracker Posted August 25, 2011 Share Posted August 25, 2011 It's wild how it started the run east and then ended up with a more westerly track. Really puts the area under the gun for flooding rains and tropical force winds. Looks sort of like the GFDI run through what I've been able to see of it. It was nice knowing you.

usedtobe Posted August 25, 2011 Share Posted August 25, 2011 Rain shield has expanded west which I think happens when the start land interaction is this correct thinking? It happens when the storm starts transitioning and interacting with the extratropics. A front typically forms and you get overrunning on the west side of the front which tends to put the heaviest precipitation on the west side of the track.

usedtobe Posted August 25, 2011 Share Posted August 25, 2011 It was nice knowing you. I made through 10 inhces of rain during Floyd so I'll be OK. Hopefully, I'll keep my power. I have a generator that I can pull out so I can pull water and run the freezing but it isn't strong enough to give me hot water for a shower.

Eskimo Joe Posted August 25, 2011 Share Posted August 25, 2011 To the OP - Also understand that they are already doing emergency phase 1 in Ocean City and come folks are already being moved out (just international workforce students for now it seems). You would be better off sticking to someplace a bit more inland. There's no sense in going out there and getting yourself into a situation. In many areas, first responders will simply stop answering calls for help if they warned people to evacuate before - so be warned. Not the smartest thing at all. Best advice in the thread thus far.

Huffwx Posted August 25, 2011 Share Posted August 25, 2011 I'm heading to my Mom's in Rehobeth DE-- it's a few miles inland but near an INLET. Should be good fun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sucks because normally I am down for a storm, just not this one. There will be rain before midnight but the highest winds will probably be after. Still, it won't be a good night to be on the road if the GFS and euro ae right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
