Tracking Hurricane Matthew and any potential impacts to New England

[ROOSTA]

Big model run upcoming, does it hold serve, track Matthew E or W even slightly? Latest, well 8pm update had the pivot point almost to my LON. Regardless a long duration event.

Wishing and wanting a 38 in your backyard is just ignorance fueled by bedtime stories and living in someone else's basement. Once I grew up and realized what would really happen to hundreds of thousands I dropped the destruction in my hood fantasy quickly.

Only an idiot would wish for a 38 repeat. But it's always nice to have interesting weather impacting your BY...I see no harm in rooting for a TS or transitioning ET storm level impact. A 50-60 mph gust type deal with 3-6" of rain makes things somewhat exciting without the threat of widespread destruction.

The definition of a small mind is the inability to appreciate alternative points of view, regardless of how disparate they may be from your own.

People spend their lives analyzing the history of war, too.

Nobody controls the weather..take that crap to OT.

That depends on when exactly you consider the nothing to have happened.

 

Are you doing the reverse weather psychology thing, or are you tossing any real impact based on one run? If we get sprinkles and a few falling leaves, I won't be surprised, but a little early to write this off, no?

There are certain rudimentary truths to existence, such as life, death, creation and destruction.

The inability of some to accept any solitaire one of them is what keeps psychotherapists in business.

Except there are probably far fewer war historians that wish for repeat scenarios of their most studied events. I'm not sure that is the case amongst weather enthusiasts.

Yes, that is true; not a perfect analogy in that sense, but the underlying assertions remain.

Yeah, weather is a hobby that brings out some unexpected emotions.  

Nice grammatical use of a semi-colon btw.

I have just as much right to express my opinion as you do to want it . If you are so enamored drive to Charleston, camp out and chase. Best news all week for us.  A good Noreaster would have been cool.Silly to wish 38 . Go chase

And not one battlefield buff wants one in their backyard Educated people understand and learn lessons from history.  No one controls the weather but getting upset because 38 ain't walking in the door is juvenile

First of all, you can express your opinion all you want...without vommitting disparaging remarks at those with alternate views, which you failed to do...hence the "acceptance of alternate points of view".

Secondly, that is OT...I suggest you take it there.

Lol Nicole

crazy ukie the new king?

[BRSno]

0z gives us basically no rain at all 

[ROOSTA]

I be in deep doo-doo.
Do I go ahead and button-up putting on the hurricane shutters?

[Bostonseminole]

Good call..you were all over this coming west and hitting FL.

[Bostonseminole]

lol at 153 loops around and hits the bahamas again.. headed towards FL

[40/70 Benchmark]

Nuts....this is going to an extremely costly system....devestating w Hati, e Cuba while shooting the gap, then paralleling the entire Bahamian chain and coast of FL....never seen that before, should it verify.

[40/70 Benchmark]

Its like a track I drew up on my tacking charts with erasable markers as a kid...

[Bostonseminole]

headed to SFL as a 940's cane @ 183  that would just be insane..

Is Nicole having any influence on the steering of Matthew.? I mean, it's not often you see one TC progged heading straight for another TC from W to E at that latitude, although Nicole could be only a depression by then.

Not yet but thanks.

In many ways had to with so much at stake. Tomorrow morning I'm going to attach the shutters, all my windows on the outside have velcro, I think they're stored in the shed which I have yet to look in. I have about a weeks worth of tuna fish and spaghetti. Not worried about nurishment, 14k gallons of water at my disposal and in lieu of A/C I can just go swimming.

that is one crazy GFS run.. hits southern dade county Andrew like, 930's pressure ~ 210hrs

I would say no. Matthew is so large it encapsulated in it's own environment. It's the building ridge to the N and E influencing the W track. The loop is gaining some legs... yeah a double hit.
