MJW155 Posted August 28, 2011 Share Posted August 28, 2011 I can't confirm this but I'm hearing that AC Office of Emergency Management estimates 80-85% evacuated from city Police giving ppl ID forms to put in shoes.Predictions that ocean will meet bay on all barrier islands.

SnowGoose69 Posted August 28, 2011 Share Posted August 28, 2011 Our street lights have lost power, but somehow I still have it! Winds are really picking up now. Rockville Centre A bright lightning flash can sometimes do that, because it triggers the sensors into thinking its daytime, they usually come back soon after.

BayShore Posted August 28, 2011 Share Posted August 28, 2011 South Central Suffolk 30-45 mph winds out of the east. Lightning, no thunder, moderate rain fall. Gusts not doing enough movement to trees to cause any kind of power line damage at the moment. Power has flickered a bit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SnowGoose69 Posted August 28, 2011 Share Posted August 28, 2011 The western edge of the center will be approaching Cape May within ninety minutes. One thing now being missed a bit with all the winds and rain being observed is it appears the center is definitely going to track along the western edge of the guidance envelope. That could be a result of it undergoing an extratropical transformation a bit earlier, a true hurricane would have a tendency to go more right which is why I had pounded that idea for so many days, like NHC I thought this wouldn't transform til over NE, even with it weakening I thought it would maintain more of a warm core nature.

ScottB Posted August 28, 2011 Share Posted August 28, 2011 Absolutely no rain here. Just took a walk around my entire complex. Just some branches down and a few larger limbs here and there. Still gusty but that's about all. Waiting for this slot to slowly fill back in. Edison. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some of the phase diagrams a few days ago had ET starting now too. 9/10 times the idea of bending right would happen, but I also think the ridge to the east built in just in time to help prevent it. I too, thought it would bend more east. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh so this isn't a true hurricane? Funny, it's catagorized as a hurricane. And judging from what we are seeing out of S. Jersey, it's almost like a real hurricane. But hey, I'll tell my friends there not to worry since this isn't a true hurricane. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
