uhm with that track we're all getting it, remember a hurricane isn't a point.

that Sandy-like blocking northeast of us could be the determining factor here, see the tweet I posted

it doesn't matter if it's tropical or not, it's that blocking to the north which matters

It's the patriotic model we need to be Americans and support American models. #AmericaFirst lmao

Chris according to this the blocking high is there to force the storm to the NW and into the tristate area.

At this point should we be looking at the tropical models more than the global models though?

it's Wednesday this storm is coming in Sunday, that's 4 days away not a week away

really 4-5 days because it's in the Sunday-Monday timeframe.

With the NW track this seems a lot more similar to Sandy than Bob though. Bob was a conventional hurricane on a typical NNE to NE track.

Sounds a bit like Edouard. But that was such a tease lol.

The astonishing thing is seeing it move NW even up at out latitude. It was abreast of eastern LI on the HMON and then moved close to Jamaica Bay lol.

Sounds more like Shades of Sandy not Bob

that's unprecedented lol

You dont really believe any of these wild solutions like the HMON do you Chris? The ones that have the storm swinging NW into NJ or NYC or Long Island? There isn't a record block in place like there was for Sandy and those kinds of scenarios are more probably in October, not August. Dont you think the furthest west this could go is Cape Cod?

Don are the chances low for us getting 1-2" here and up to 3-5" in the Poconos?

Arctic sea ice only has a weak connection to our winters, right? I think minimum value is typically reached between the middle of September and the autumnal equinox?

Yes, exactly! The danger from fossil fuels is FAR greater than the danger from fission. And something I learned a few months ago- did you know that coal actually results in more radioactive emissions into the environment than nuclear fission does? Wow.

looks like we'll have a new supersonic jet next year to replace the Concorde, but this time it will use 100% sustainable fuel. I'll have to read up more on it to see how it works.

fossil fuel cartel brainwashing techniques work well, dont they?

Indeed- because I remember this was being discussed in the 80s and we still haven't made all that much headway. Remember Planck's famous quote about quantum mechanics? It also applies to climate change Planck experienced the truth of his own earlier observation from his struggle with the older views in his younger years: "A new scientific truth does not triumph by convincing its opponents and making them see the light, but rather because its opponents eventually die, and a new generation grows up that is familiar with it."

if you think about it, it makes a lot of sense, if one surmises that CC is moving the climate zones north, well, we have the future of a tropical rain forest climate, unless we keep chopping down all our trees, and then it will just be tropical minus the forest part lol. We will be the new Florida and Florida will be the new Atlantis.

Indeed, especially Thorium. I've heard so many great things about Thorium I don't understand what the hold up is.

the new gen of solar panels are going to actually be built right into house paint.

it may not be that slow, I've noticed a pretty obvious change in climate between the 80s and this past decade. I mean only an idiot wouldn't notice how long the allergy season has gotten and the change in rainfall patterns and growing season, etc.
