weatherwiz Posted October 29, 2012 Share Posted October 29, 2012 I really don't see 80 knot gusts here in CT. I'm thinking max gusts ~70 knots. I don't know if we will see any but I think the possibility is certainly there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NaoPos Posted October 29, 2012 Share Posted October 29, 2012 I think the "faster" look is due to the change of direction over, and now on a more nw direction*, rather than the u-turn it just completed. (Which is just utterly amazing). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

showmethesnow Posted October 29, 2012 Share Posted October 29, 2012 Sorry to jump into your thread but I saw mention of Sting jets a day or two ago and maybe being a possibility with this storm of bringing strong winds down to the surface. To my limited knowledge it looks as if the setup is no longer conducive for this but I was wondering the take of any of the Mets who were discussing this before. With those high winds just off the surface it could possibly be a major concern for a limited area in MD and/or DE . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
