    Monday depending on track of 1st low rain...some snow may be possible northern perimeter.

    Could go either way, but with a -AO/-NAO tandem in place, I will take my chances. If the look up.top holds, I expect the CAD look to increase and the setup to slowly tick colder as the event gets closer. Good to see this type of setup tho. But before buying gas for the snowblower or 20 pounds of ice melt, need to remind myself this is 6 days out and much could change. But great to have an actual trackable event. Feeling somewhat optimistic on this one given the looks up top....if they hold.

    Agree.

    down in the south..we track rain...

    any snow is a bonus.

    Yeah you may be missing out on all the little dink and dunk amounts but then there are those occasional death bands only areas closer to the coast get blasted with.

     

     

    It always depends on the track of the storm. I never got the epic storm in highland lakes nj....biggest was 22 (7 urs)inches in a dump... phl airport gets the big tail right.

    Did you move back down? Is that outside of Marcus Hook near Delaware line?

    The hook is 4-5 miles from my house.

    Delaware home of tax free shopping is just down the road some.

    How grim, a ton less snow now for you :( buckets of rain at 33F

     

     

     

     

    I am perched on a slight hill..not sure if this impacts the rain drop density.

    All kidding aside, glad to be back in the metro area.

    I want to close with a few pieces of information, including graphics for Isaias-tropical connection. 

    Borrowed this written piece from Ramblin Red post on tropical forum: 

    Good article on the effects of the storm from the Wash Post. 

    https://www.washingtonpost.com/weather/2020/08/05/isaias-power-outages/?hpid=hp_national1-8-12_cwgisaias-3pm%3Ahomepage%2Fstory-ans

    78 mph: The wind gust clocked one mile southwest of Battery Park City in Manhattan and in Farmingdale, on Long Island. Numerous gusts reached around 70 mph in the New York City boroughs, including at JFK and La Guardia airports, both located in Queens.

    Oak Island, N.C.: 87 mph

    Cape May, N.J.: 75 mph

     

    Ocean City, Md.: 74 mph

    McClellanville, S.C.: 78 mph

    Dewey Beach, Del.: 68 mph

    Assateague, Va.: 68 mph

    Wallops Island, Va.: 68 mph

    Atlantic City, N.J.: 66 mph

    Norfolk: 61 mph

    Virginia Beach: 59 mph

    Richmond: 51 mph

    146 mph: The wind gust measured at the top of Mount Washington, N.H., the highest on record there in the month of August.

    115: The number of tornado warnings the National Weather Service issued over the storm’s duration.

    33: The number of tornado reports associated with Isaias that the National Weather Service Storm Prediction Center received Monday and Tuesday. 

    Nine inches: The rainfall in Sotterley, Md., in St. Mary’s County, less than 60 miles southeast of Washington. Widespread rainfall totals along Isaias’s path reached three to six inches, with localized amounts between six and nine inches. Some of the heaviest rain fell from eastern Virginia through Washington’s eastern suburbs in Maryland into eastern Pennsylvania and southern New York.

    -------------

    First image: Leftover power outages 48 hours after Isaias passed.  Rainfall, departure from norm and percent departure from normal Aug 1-5 (ending 12z/5).  Guidance was on the right track...just a bit too far east of the reality.  No classic PRE occurred because no surface high north of us and not enough separation between the hybrid PRE late Monday-early Tuesday and Isaias. Finally, a little more detail in the last image with the NWS MARFC radar-platform integration of rainfall (7- near 10" in brown)   Not much more I can add. I think  70 MPH gust event was pretty good  for our coastal areas and that the HRRRX wind gust predictor while maybe 10 kt high at 24 hours was very accurate within 12 hours. 829P/6

    Apparently crews from Pennsylvania are on site. Recording indicated hit hard with numerous telephone poles and trees down. Rt 515 still closed. Lots of tree damage.
