Just due to the -NAO I believe the system may end up closer to the coast than depicted. No matter what happens, it's not a particularly strong system, probably would be considerate a moderate nor'easter in the fall and winter. 

All I got from the this run of the Euro is that the storm is still there and still sitting off the NJ coast on Sunday. We have a lot of work to do from here to make it more than a breezy rainy day.

Prob a 1-3" depending on the track, but who knows at this point

- lol I am happy that we have something to track

 

12Z Euro Precip for JFK is around .50" from 12z Sunday to 12Z Monday (This mornings run had closer to .75") Lowest Pressure is 1005mb (vs 1001mb this morning) at JFK. Center stays SE of Montauk Point. Heading NE into Nova Scotia. I have Accuwx Pro. Definitely more easterly than this morning.

The blocky high pressure north of it will make it tough to steer it out to sea, but "luckily" (I know a lot of you want to see a massive coastal storm) there's no major trough and energy to phase into it and the initial system looks a lot weaker than Sandy did. The overall mean jet stream is still considerably north of where it would be in late October so it's a lot harder for a feature to dig far enough south to phase in like what happened last Halloween. So I don't see this being a particularly intense storm for us and hopefully wouldn't destroy the beaches.

Irene in terms of impacts. Biggest impacts would be heavy rain and gusty winds.

 

The GGEM then has a similar setup again day ten

Part of what made Sandy so bad was the trough that phased into it and added baroclinic energy with tropical energy. It was also a cat 3 briefly near Jamaica. Irene was still an intense hurricane near the Bahamas before steering up this way and being destroyed by dry air. Any interaction with the main jet looks very minor if at all this time with no blocking and the main jet position so far north. So I don't see this being very intense up here, but maybe still a notable enough system to cause some coastal flood concerns if it does make it to near the coast (more likely if the high pressure ridge east of it strengthens in the future). Maybe a weak tropical/subtropical system with the impact of a general nor'easter.

Yea agreed, But I bet any word of a tropical system coming up this way and people will freak out

- Make sure your tanks are full lol
