If we were to get major flooding issues I could perhaps see some deaths occurring from people trying to drive through floods or maybe a tree falling onto someones house or car but to use that type of language right now is not really necessary.

Yeah isolated incidents... that stuff can happen in any flooding or wind event. There's always someone in the wrong place at the wrong time. But the phrase "many lives lost" makes it sound like a 200 mile wide EF4 is going to come through...or skyscrappers in NYC will fail and crumble.

Even if it were to hit tomorrow, I'm not sure if that language is ever necessary on the east coast unless we have a CAT 5 plowing into NYC.

Glad I don't have to make a public forecast (or any forecast) on this one. What do you say if you're a public forecaster? Hey folks - could be an historical event for the end of October again, or we could have a few showers and a 20 mph gust. More at 11.

HAHAHA I am working with Brad Field at NBC Connecticut. I will show him this. This was hilarious!

Congrats Joe on the DGEX!

4-6 FEET of snow in West Virginia and central Appalachians on the 18z DGEX. Every 6-hours another 1.5-2" QPF falls with SFC temps in the upper 20s... NW flow upslope into the central Appalachians with tropical moisture, lol.

This is only like half the storm and over 4" QPF as snow in the West Virginia mountains... haha.
