Ian Posted August 26, 2011 Author Share Posted August 26, 2011 Do you have to douse my hopes of rain with every post? im not.. i was implying its "too be expected" that the nam is falling in line with the global powerhouse models. 2 nights ago at 84 i said it matched close to the euro on final position but it was going to be in "spray" mode for a while after.. which it was. now this may not be the final answer but it's getting closer. euro/gfs blend... tho maybe 18 hours out the nam will figure out where the exact heaviest strip may be (or more likely the output of that stripe).

mappy Posted August 26, 2011 Share Posted August 26, 2011 you'd better grab a stiff drink and sit down. Why? What happened? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nj2va Posted August 26, 2011 Share Posted August 26, 2011 EasternUSWx over on the main board said the last few ticks, she's been moving 353 degrees, a bit west of due north, where she was moving due north prior to that. Might be a little wobble, a trend, or nothing. We'll see. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kmlwx Posted August 26, 2011 Share Posted August 26, 2011 i think Katie or someone else said yesterday they did that at Salsbury too. I can understand for sure at Salisbury but not Towson IMHO. Who cares if they get a little wet? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mappy Posted August 26, 2011 Share Posted August 26, 2011 i think Katie or someone else said yesterday they did that at Salsbury too. Yup. Moved everything to next week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kmlwx Posted August 26, 2011 Share Posted August 26, 2011 The temporary west component is probably just a wobble. It could easily wobble a bit east of north in the next few hours to compensate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ian Posted August 26, 2011 Author Share Posted August 26, 2011 the storm is not strengthening.. it's just big. i think this is good news for us. our biggest problem would be if it passed by as a tight storm etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AJField Posted August 26, 2011 Share Posted August 26, 2011 Whenever I pass along news of "evacuating" I replace it with the word "abandoning." It seems cooler, more apocalyptic. Seriously...what kind of damage are places like OCMD, Bethany DE, looking at? Bethany just repumped their beaches, to the extent you can't see the ocean from the 'bored'walk. Its not looking good for them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, they will diminish once over land. So that should shrink up a good bit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RickinBaltimore Posted August 26, 2011 Share Posted August 26, 2011 Murmors of towson u evacuating... that would be dumb That doesn't make any sense. I can see possibly, POSSIBLY having student move down some floors from the Residence Tower, but evacuate the campus? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kmlwx Posted August 26, 2011 Share Posted August 26, 2011 That doesn't make any sense.

Don Cherry's Jacket Posted August 26, 2011 Share Posted August 26, 2011 add ODU and prolly a lot of others Probably less about "getting wet" and more about safety of getting to and from the school during a major, widespread and foreseeable weather event.

sauss06 Posted August 26, 2011 Share Posted August 26, 2011 what for winds did we have with Isabel? 30 with higher gusts? i remember it was windy as hell. we had a lot of power outages and trees down the lower Susq. valley and i think we had like 2-3" of rain as well Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
