Omg. I want this to verify. I boxed the 21 hour, 27 hour, and 30 hour plots. You can clearly see where it is at 24 hours:

Wow. Pretty much every model has us in the right front quadrant here right at or just after high tide. This surge may be worse than Gloria if that pans out.

So this track keeps it over water as long as possible and then slams it into eastern Queens/western Nassau? Sounds like about the worst possible scenario.

Exactly.

Irene is clearly moving NE now. Center should be back over pure water in a couple hours.

trying to get a flight home from LA was impossible. Im going to fly into Chicago..rent a car, and drive the rest of the way home.

Every airport on the east coast is closed and most flights are backed up until wednesday at least

You'll get here after the storm passes lol.

The heaviest rains are going to stay west of NYC.I believe we get 3 inches here max.Poconos and Catskills are going to have some big time flooding.This is going to be more about the winds and storm surge than the rainfall,which is a big change from previous Tropical systems.

No way that little. NYC already has .40".

All models are 6"-8", at the minimum.

We are going to be to close to the eye.Look at the radar down South,on its current track the heaviest rains are going to be west of us.

Yes, but with the large size of the storm and its slow movement we should all get at least 5 inches. Those areas to the west will be getting 10-12 inches.
