The ridiculous ridge modeled along the East Coast from this weekend into next week is in the top tenth of the 99th percentile for October [ECMWF].

Shown peaking at 593.4 dam, it would trail only Oct 11-12 1990 (595.3 dam), Oct 3 2012 (594.3 dam), and Oct 9 1985 (593.8 dam). pic.twitter.com/1QQM8gpf4n
