40/70 Benchmark Posted August 26, 2011 Share Posted August 26, 2011 Hey negative nelly, ...as of 10pm this system looks better than it has at any other time in its life in my most valued and amazing opinion - j/k, but seriously - Nah...I thought it looked better N of Hisp, but it looks good...I'm not debating gradual intensification.

Shaun Curry Posted August 26, 2011 Share Posted August 26, 2011 Westerly Emergency Management sent out their first 'Reverse 911' message at 6pm this evening urging all residents to prepare for high winds and heavy rains - also to secure all loose objects. They stated that further messages would be forth coming and advised residents to check the Westerly Police website at www.westerlypolice.org for up to date information. Just drove back from dinner in Narragansett along Rte. 1 - countless boats on trailers along Rte. 1 heading out of town and coming up from the roads south of Rte. 1. I'm about 1 mile from the beach in SE Westerly and am high enough that I am not in a mandatory evacuation zone. Winds are light out of the South and I can clearly hear the ocean tonight. My folks in the East Matunuck section of South Kingstown got the same type of call tonight, plus a heads up on possible evacuation. They said the marina they are at is empty except for a couple of the bigger boats that can't be trailered out. Also have friends in Misquamicut so we might have some company for the weekend. I'm only a few miles away in Peace Dale but at a whopping 26' above sea level. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr. Windcredible! Posted August 26, 2011 Share Posted August 26, 2011 can anyone recommend an easy to install battery operated sump pump? either something to temporarily replace my current a/c pump or to just serve as backup when the inevitable power outages hit. The nice thing is I should be able to find something up here in Albany without having to deal with any chaos at the stores. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DomNH Posted August 26, 2011 Share Posted August 26, 2011 Anyone want to talk about inland wind? I think that some people picture a tight core where near the center is strongest wind, Charley a good example was like a giant weak tornado with winds confined very close to the center. Like the first image from the SACRUS tracking thread From what I gather about a northern system like this is that 1. the windfield will expand, the strongest winds may be far from the center 2. nobody $x miles or more inland is likely exceed hurricane force sustained, but much of the coast, even far removed from the center will Is Matt Noyes about right? Lol, yeah, I feel like I'm on the bubble here. I'm inland but not really all that far and I probably won't be that far from the center. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Typhoon Tip Posted August 26, 2011 Share Posted August 26, 2011 Nah...I thought it looked better N of Hisp, but it looks good...I'm not debating gradual intensification. Yesterday around 3pm I check the SAL data just for kicks and giggles and saw an arc of fairly high density dust around the north of the system - today, it was gone, but what we saw during the time is an occasional disrupted "bursty" attempt at better coherence. My hypothesis is that in addition to your vagina monologues that SAL was ingested and still played a role in the intensity profile of this thing per the course of the last 24 hours. I think that has finally neutralized and we are seeing a less interrupted behavior over the last several hours. Interesting... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

weatherwiz Posted August 26, 2011 Share Posted August 26, 2011 Thank you, Dom! I actually thought it had something to do with that but wasn't sure. Anyways I'm interested in that as well as this could potentially dump at least a few inches in spots, especially with enhancement from the stalled out front which will be to our south. PWATS do being to increase as well as the storm nears and flow from the south pumps in moisture. Saturday should have periods of pretty heavy rainfall off and on I would think. Thanks everyone for the help and links! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BrianLaverty Posted August 26, 2011 Share Posted August 26, 2011 Where?, barrier beach?, I would not get in between the coastal ponds and the ocean.Now a spot on a terminal moraine ..... Watch hill RI would be cool, in the brand new Ocean House. My girlfriend lives on a road up from Point Judith Pond. Its very close to Galilee and East Matunuk. I don't see any way that there is cops there blocking it off as its a private street down the road from her. Now convincing her to walk down there will be the hard part.
