you love storms like this….enjoy! Going to be cool seeing that firehose coming off the atlantic 

 

These hybrid developments that originate over the Gulf Stream can really pack a punch. I don't have one of

these charts for the Euro which is even further west than the CMC/GFS are showing.

What do you think the winds will be like for costal sections?

 

The current Euro run looks like the best chance of wind gusts to 50 mph or higher will be east of NYC

where the winds can go more E to ENE. But we'll have to watch later runs for the exact track of the

low. When we get under 48hrs the more specific details will come into better focus.

Any upslope in the poconos or NW nj higher terrain?

As it stands right now I would think areas above 2000. So really only the top of the Pocono plateau. The Catskills Ulster county north. The Berkshire and southern Greens would be the jackpot areas above 3000 where you would see multiple foot amounts. This occurred in the 1992 nor'easter

The Euro thinks there could be some 60 mph gusts from the Hamptons east towards Montauk

Warm seclusion events tend to over produce in regards to what's modeled. If that's in fact what we do see 60+ gusts right at the coast are a good possibility. There's a ton of energy here and a nice pressure gradient with a weak inversion.

My confidence is increasing for a nice HWW event.

March 2010 was predicted to be a run of the mill advisory type event right up to 24 hours. We had solid hurricane force gusts for hours in long beach. Second only to Sandy. Two blocks from my current location in Wantagh a gas station awning blew off. Real deal stuff.

Not saying we see anything like that but 60mph gusts definitely get the trees moving

It will also be interesting to see how the public reacts to any coastal impacts in the post sandy world

Looks like a long duration light to moderate rain on the 18z GFS. It also shows a very heavy snow event for NWCT and western MA as well as parts of southern NY state. Anywhere else (yes, even those NW suburbs 25 miles away or more) are just a sloppy mix with maybe 3-4 inches in parts

If the storm cuts off south of LI or takes an inland track there could be some nasty beach erosion and flooding, and obviously lots of rain. That'll be the story around these parts, not the snow unless you live on High Point, NJ. 

 

Looks like its going to be rain for the duration. Only things to key on now is how much rain?

As per WPC it looks pretty wet with NYC near the bullseye.

 0 Z run will be telling tonight on the GFS.

It maybe onto something with not taking this "nuke bomb" right over the big apple.

Also looks to be a little more than 3 or 4 inches in the interior.

 

Best
