Does look like Sandy in an homage - 

Those individual members are 'perturbed' which just means they have variant physical equations ...but that means the convective processes are handled slight different, creating different system-internal thermal handling ... This was evidenced as warm secluded already, so it meandering over a tepid SST G-string out there ...it may be taking on 'faux' profiles due to version-based thermal surplus...  If/when it did take on 'real' ST characteristics probably requires analysis after the fact.

More like 91

I'm fairly certain the laws of thermodynamics would disagree about the warm season being drier, but the response seems iron clad, ha. Love it.

I like how winter rainers always feel the press, but whiffs south always trend NW. Science is amazing sometimes.

Mostly cloudy with a fresh breeze. Glad we not rain.

Spittin' rain up here despite seeing hints of blue aloft earlier this morning. Pretty thickly overcast now. 41.7F

The last snowbank should be toast now. It was about a foot wide coating as of this morning.

You guys will get your rain and it'll probably be more than what I get.

3k Nammy shows you what happens with deep layer NE flow. Some go up, some go down.

That might excite the Kennebec a little bit.

Any idea on what the surface pressure is with the storm at the moment?

Last WPC analysis was 976 (with a 1070 high over the Arctic!).

I look forward to things that go bump in the night. It's gonna get bumpy here on Cape.

I really hope this gets discussed in the NHC post season Analysis (the storm, not the High pressure area)
