Looks to me that the difference is up in SE Canada. That trough near Hudson Bay is much flatter and the W Atlantic/Canadian Maritime ridge remains much stronger forcing Jose west. 

This still comes down the WAR. It appears that it's strong enough to keep her running N while the trough can't kick her out fast enough.

Yeah I was looking at the 200mb wind field. But yeah, that troff doesn't dig as much either and doesn't kick Jose east until too late.

I still think this is a "minor event" regardless.  Probably a 60-70 mph system tops... similar to Irene and since it likely would be hitting less populated areas with its eastern side you'd probably need this to come in at dead high tide.   I think this forecast will be easy once we get past the next 48 hours and see how far west it gets because it probably continues at furthest west a 360 motion once it turns.

"Similar to Irene"... yet you call it a minor event. Irene caused $15.6 billion in damages in the U.S. alone.

The only really interesting part of the Jose forecast is when it phases with the remnant Irma vort in a few days. I am not sure if we have seen a an active hurricane off the East Coast absorb a remnant hurricane vort before.

 

Sheared out remnant Irma vort currently over SE PA

Gets absorbed into Jose and the wind field expands. But will this process result in any more of a tug closer to the coast than just a brush of the BM? Stay tuned..

Chris, did something similar to this kind of absorption happen with the Perfect Storm?  Also, as a sequel to that, there was a later un-named hurricane that developed.

On the other hand, an Irene-like storm shifted further east would mean the flooding rains that fell over NJ and Eastern PA would fall over NYC and Long Island instead.
