That's a shockingly LP....would it be extratropical at this point?

What are you going to buy? Some Mets gear? How about a Bobby Bonilla jersey, considering they still pay him? ;-)

I guess we haven't had our first noreaster yet but this sure feels like it.

Yes, lots of events that got stronger as they approached the coast- we saw them in March and April too.

Makes me wonder if the Bermuda storm will cause the ridge to pump up stronger and to the west, thus increasing the chances for the second TC to hug the coast rather than safely go out to sea SE of us.

Top 7 warmest Septembers were all in the last 7 years!

we also need to do something about birds that get killed in collisions with airplanes.

How much rainfall expected for this system Don?

sounds like you expect that system to be along the SE coast and then go out to sea from there, Walt, a la Matthew?

what kind of wild weather are we talking about?

So much weaker on the EURO.....

Okay so according to the second key point, there are suites of the GFS run without the GFDL? Why dont we just use those? Or if there aren't, why not make a para GFS that doesn't use GFDL microphysics and run that parallel to the current GFS and we can compare them to each other and give preference to the one that's more accurate?

why dont they fix this cold bias? Isn't this as simple as applying a positive (+) temperature correction to the data? Simply do a study to see what the magnitude of the cold bias is and adjust the model to account for it?

it doesn't seem like there's going to be a whole lot of rain anywhere though (>1")

The GND is very thorough in addressing the many problems we face as a society, from the antiquated land use policy that is driving the current mass extinction to the unhealthy high meat/processed food diet that is driving the high rates of diabetes and obesity and the worst BMI in the world, to the problems of plastic pollution that are ubiquitous worldwide. The IPCC has stated we must cut fossil fuel usage by half by 2030 to avoid irreversible consequences and even that may be too conservative, as the damage we've already caused is expected to stick with us for thousands of years.

Humanity has a horrible history of driving species to extinction throughout their history. What a tragic legacy. https://www.livescience.com/first-human-caused-animal-extinction.html https://www.livescience.com/53822-dodo-birds-were-smart.html https://www.livescience.com/earth-without-people.html#xenforo-comments-3341 They even lied and tried to blame the species themselves for their own extinction by saying they were stupid when they clearly weren't. I liked the last piece the most, how long it will take for the planet to recover from the mess we've caused when humanity finally goes extinct.

I hope they hinder sales in regions vulnerable to wild fires too. How long until we get some legislation preventing people from buying property in these climate vulnerable areas?

a well funded EPA that doesn't employ people who are part of the industries they are supposed to be regulating (we could also say that about the FDA and other regulatory agencies.)

More advanced wind turbines have built in computers that shut down individual units when birds approach. This problem is going to lessen with new tech.

Yes, I never understood the idea that we should bear the responsibilities of what they do, while they also take our money.

anniversary of Sandy event?

what day are they showing this TC reaching us? and the CFS is showing snow coming from this TC?

My favorite was actually the snowstorm in April! That was a historic cold pattern in March and April that year.

Don, do you have any rainfall totals across our area and highest wind speeds? NYC, JFK, LGA, ISP, EWR, etc.?

I'd be more worried about a TC coming up the coast than any possible snow.
