Im by the WTC - can't see 10 feet. FREQUENT lightning. Pouring rain. The subways are going to be gone. This is INSANE.

This is an INSANE storm!!!

So it's growing increasingly likely this will likely hit Florida? I don't follow the tropics like I did winter weather in the Mid-Atlantic. 

Yeah, I think we should begin evacuations now. Ecacuate where? Who cares?! Just evaciate!

You see this?! SE Area of Interest! Ten percent in two days, twenty percent in five! What is this, a weather forecast or a scratch-off ticket?! Ten percent?! That’s not a forecast, that’s a suggestion! You can’t get me worked up over something with worse odds than me getting a date on a Saturday night! And twenty percent in five days?! What am I supposed to do with that information? Stock up on bottled water, but only drink a fifth of it? Keep one galosh by the door, just in case? These meteorologists….. they put out these ‘Areas of Interest’ so we’ll all go, ‘Oooh, something’s coming!’ Meanwhile it’s a little puff of cloud in the middle of nowhere. I’m getting anxiety over a moist spot on the radar! And you know what’s gonna happen? Day six—poof! Gone! Back to tracking tropical waves in Chad! CHAD! The only waves in Chad should be in a swimming pool!”

12 hours  later the GFS says wait till next  year.

I was traumatized so much this winter with the GFS’s multi biblical blizzards only to be let down. Like an abusive lover, the GFS promised to never do it again if I took it back. And now look what’s happening. I gotta find a new hobby.

I hear BASE jumping is fun….

Some of the accounts on weather platforms are getting too caviler and cocky in their eyerolls about the GFS. We are in August during what should be a favorable MJO phase and *unlike last year* models show a ton of activity in the coming weeks. The fact that model runs from the GFS to the EURO have shown significant hurricanes after mid August is very troublesome, especially since they have been consistent.

Be ready, it is on the way.

Dude. The GFS showed us 40 inch blizzards all winter and now its showing us massive hurricanes hitting everywhere all at once. Someone has to be messing with it. I trust the JMA more than the 384 hour GFS.

You know what? It’s 2025. Let’s do this. Let’s push FEMA and the NWS to their breaking points and see how that goes.

Thank you Barry! Not all heroes wear capes.

GFS handing out hurricanes to every major city on the East Coast and Gulf today like Oprah! You get a hurricane! You get a hurricane! You get a tropical storm!

Sure, why not?

In the last 8 hours, the GFS has given us Hurricane Hugo wrecking South Carolina, Andrew bulldozing South Florida, and now it’s serving up Katrina like it’s a greatest hits album from Mother Nature’s rage collection

It’s the GFS, so take it with a grain of salt..

We better get used to $500 electric bills.

Chantal is looking interesting for Monday/Tuesday. Very interesting.

Could bring some moisture and humidity to the NYC area this week. I’ll keep an eye out.

Did the Park hit 100 or am I delusional due to the heat?

Central Park just hit 80 degrees.

A derecho and WW3 on the same day. What are the odds?

We should definitely see if there’s a funnel cloud with that bow coming up here.

I tend to agree. We'll see. I think the message is that it will be hot with probably the hottest heatwave since 2010. Maybe we are locked into at least 5 consecutive days of mid 90s+. And I would look for the hottest days to top out probably between 102-104 if we do in fact exceed 100. Lots of time for the 100s to become unraveled here. It can all be messed up with backdoor fronts, onshore winds, or thunderstorms.

WX/PT

The only way for those temps to verify is if there's almost ZERO humidity. I've never seen 100 degrees and 90% humidity in NYC.

that's 12+ days out

Beggars can't be choosers...

Wait, I see that it won't rain next weekend... like not father's day weekend but the weekend after. Can this be true?

I need my 58 degree morning temperatures to return with zero humidity and a dew point of 45. That's just heaven.

Is there some new law of physics that makes it rain during the weekend in the north east? I'm truly wondering about this.
