I think this gets up to a major before it gets closer to the coast. The gulf has so much heat in it... just jet fuel for it. And if it slows down at all?
Looking at the 270 hour EURO, I see we might do another Nor'Easter with pressures in the 980s. Right now, with 11 days to go, it shows landfall on Rhode Island. Could be nothing. Could be something. Who knows? Something new to track.
