It looks to me that since it's moving nw, we will get a piece of the core for a short time, and then be in drier air with some wind. You're getting a direct landfall.

North winds will limit that threat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dan11295 Posted August 22, 2021 Share Posted August 22, 2021 I agree on plenty of outages, even 60-65 mph gusts with fully leafed trees and saturated soil will do a number. Wind damage beyond falling trees, not so much Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It really isn't information that anyone can use...Especially the day before a storm. People who are prepared with generators were prepared well before (with the exception of a few last minute generator sales at Lowes.). Eversource is preparing regardless of the pretty colors. All that map does is add additional stress to those who don't have alternative power sources. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Typhoon Tip Posted August 22, 2021 Share Posted August 22, 2021 Sat and rad give me the impression that over the last 45 minutes or so Henri's approach is slowing down. Some times these are just wobbles and time will tell, but 'wobbling' is usual a sign that a course correction is about to take place, too. I don't know. I was just musing to self ... if this thing stalled off Montauk having never actually made landfall ... like anywhere? Then it limps east as it dies .. that might be the most deliciously hysterical result yet - 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BooneWX Posted August 22, 2021 Share Posted August 22, 2021 Southeast page lurker here: I’d ease up on calling it a “bust.” The core of the wind is still well offshore and I’m afraid some of you are about to find out just how little wind is required to do damage when you’ve already had a ton of rain. Even 30-45 mph sustained with higher gusts will be a huge issue inland. Anyways. Carry on. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
