Tracking hurricane Joaquin OTS

It may be "irresponsible," but it may also be right.  There is little to no model guidance taking the storm track up the bay.  The Euro and a few other outliers go way out to sea, and the rest hook into the Carolinas or SE VA.

 

NHC frankly does a disservice by making a low probability outcome the "track" so they can hedge their bets when they know full well that's what will be plastered across the media.  As we've said here before, NHC mets can write the most beautiful advisories you've ever seen, and it won't matter.  No one reads them.

Just to play Devils advocate, we built all of those things in the Tidewater. We can rebuild them if needed. Those barrier islands aren't replaceable

The islands won't be wiped out by this storm.

Btw, speaking of man vs nature built, guess what part of the Jersey shore suffered the least over wash and erosion in Sandy? The natural beaches, such as those in parks.

@ 78 hours it is starting to phase in. Believe it or not, this might be best case scenario if you want a direct hit into the Chess.

It def went WAYY towards the EURO on this run though.

It's a trend east towards the Euro with plenty of GFS-time to come in line with the Euro.
