Storm has quite a robust tail to it. If it stays together, that will hit NYC and Long Island later. 

[wdrag]

Since around 12z 56 KT ECG, ORF 53kt,  and the nw wind at RIC 44kt...  that's the wrap around back side tail get BWI, nW NJ se NYS and just forming now, i think.

That area is what seems to bring the really strong winds in and then for a few hours behind that. Right now outside it’s very still-barely any breeze.

Issue is the tornadoes. Everyone is in the same boat today, sitting ducks 

[bluewave]

Gusting to 66 mph in VA.

 

[Big Jims Videos]

Winds gusting just under 20 mph at Manasquan inlet.  That's up from calm when we first arrived at 5 am.   

[Tatamy]

Just blew past 1” on the rainfall total. Those 45-50 DBZ echoes mean business out here.

[jm1220]

Also just noticed our area was largely bumped up to ENH risk today? 

[nycsnow]

Think we’re going to have a wild afternoon even though we’re not getting the boat loads of rain this might be epic

[JonClaw]

I was gonna say "Wow, enhanced risk for NYC? When did that last happen?" only to find out it happened in June...

What a summer this has been.

Folks in Warren and Hunterdon Cty should pay close attention to the tornado warned cell in Bucks Cty.

Morning thoughts...

Tropical Storm Isaias has continued to accelerate north-northeastward. At 8 am, Isaias was moving toward the NNE at 33 mph. Very heavy rain was falling in parts of the Middle Atlantic region as Isaias was passing near the Chesapeake Bay. Already Washington, DC and Wilmington, DE have set daily rainfall records:

Rainfall through 8:20 am:

Washington, DC: 1.78" (old record: 1.33", 1974)
Wilmington, DE: 2.04" (old record: 2.00", 1915)

Conditions in the New York City , northern New Jersey, and southern Connecticut areas will deteriorate this morning. The heaviest rain will remain west of NYC.  Winds will increase with gusts reaching 65 mph in places during the early and middle afternoon. A few locations could experience a tornado or waterspout, especially in any intense bands of rain that pass.

Conditions will improve rapidly this evening and overnight.

5 tornado warnings currently within KDIX range.
