Regardless, its a badly needed soaking rainstorm. The media and some people here will hype this simple because its the busiest travel day of the year. If it wasn't it would just be another rainy day. 99% of the population don't really care if its a phased storm, amped storm or how many MB the low is. Bottom line for most its a soaking rainy day.

Yeah, we get strong SE winds on east of the low track though. There is also still coastal flood threat.

Any minor coastal flood "threat" with this will be mitigated by a very low high tide cycle and winds which will veer southeast to south to northwest on Wednesday which don't look "strong". We are in between the new and full moon and Wednesday happens to be the lowest high tides of the cycle. Check your Tides. People have Also lowered the bar on their definition of what "strong" winds are. Take today for example. Yes we have a blustery day but i world hardly call it strong even the gusts.

I don't think they will be major flooding. But the shoreline is still vulnerable to any minor surge. To me there is strong winds (40mph+) and damaging winds (60mph+). If the Euro and NAM is correct with 925mb jet 70-80kts. Winds to could gust to 60mph on Wednesday, near the coast.

The 0z ECMWF 10 meter wind gusts on Accuweather Pro have parts of the Jersey coast into LI with 55 kt.+ wind gusts.

I've been told those wind maps are just as valuable as the weenie snow maps. I'll leave it to a pro to decide what's what. It's beyond my interest or comprehension to read the proper soundings if the actual possibilities.

I'm relating what it shows, so people can take it FWIW. I'm not sure how accurate those maps are myself.

I know. I'm just relaying that they are utter crap. I got rid of accuwx pro because a number if their text products don't work half the time anyway.

Yeah, and now that it seems like trends are favoring us getting into the warm sector, those winds may be able to mix down.
