Potential Hermine Impacts


Zelocita Weather

Recommended Posts

Interesting to note that while this thing looks somewhat extratropical in its satellite presentation, as soon as the COC hit the water on the Outer Banks it started to warm. Latent heat still being drawn in, sensible heat still being released. Will be interesting to see how it responds once it gets well clear of the coast.

Still seems to be pretty tucked into the coast... Surprised that the NHC took out the bend back to the coast with their latest track.

Also how did it strength while over land... Could their forecast of 75 minimum hurricane be a little conservative?

They will most likely change their track, but Hermine is still a huge uncertainty on where he will go, so of course nhc is being cautious, and I don't blame them.  Looks to me imho that he will meander in the Atl, and slowly drift north towards and eventually north of the bm south of LI.

might end up more of an eastern LI and Cape Cod threat

Hi sorry can you explain what this exactly means if you don't mind?

It's the vorticity level at the bottom.

The vorticity field shows small eddies in the atmosphere that generally are not detectable on the standard height field. Values of 14 (green) or higher highlight those eddies. The higher the vorticity, the stronger the eddy. These eddies can help strengthen surface low pressure systems and induce precipitation and are often used as a predictive tool.

Gotcha, thank you for great explanation!

Pretty incredible to think she will be sitting within 150 miles of the coast as an intensifying system from now until Wed. Wave heights already jumped off the coast of LI shortly after Hermine emerged from the Va coast. Should be fascinating to watch sea level and wave heights gradually climb over this timeframe. Anyone not thinking this will have significant beach erosion and coastal flooding impacts from Cape Cod to Delaware is fooling themselves.

It is drifting north at that point thereafter?

I understand you want to know if Hermine has an impact on NY, but you've got to stop clogging up this thread with questions that could be answered if you look at the models yourself. 

Here is a link to a model site. Use it.

I'm sorry but I am not clogging up the thread.... I have been around for almost 10 years and I have added some interesting insite along the way. I was just asking a simple question. Sometimes I don't have the ability to answer my own question since I am usually on my phone and don't have a computer readily available. So it would just be much appreciated to answer a simple question.

BTW sorry for that little rant. Kinda like the NAM being further NW maybe we can get that bend back to the coast.
