    Just forked over another $200 for a second night in Allentown at the arena for Saturday night's indoor midget racing event (cars). Bring it on. I'll be in the sweet spot regardless what sloppy rain/mangled flakes fall at the beach back home. Better than worrying about what state plows i-78 better.

    I lived in NEPA from 2007-2014 and it's night and day the difference between NJ and PA road coverage. Advantage to NJ by far. Overnight, darkness, heavier rates, I'm definitely concerned.

    First snow in two years and I'm scheduled to cover an event at the PPL Allentown PA arena Friday night and Saturday night - I don't think driving from Allentown PA to Point Beach NJ Saturday at 11 pm will work. Everything I am seeing puts LV in the bullseye this far out.

    Feels like April outside. Sun finally out and it's 46. WTH

    Just started cranking at the beach here. Winds became noticable outside as the precipitation began. Looks like 40-50 gusts over Delmarva moving north.

    A cruise ship had a 68 mph gust last night off the east coast of Florida.

    Thanks Walt for starting this thread. Things working in our favor for less potential coastal impacts are the moon will be in first quarter phase. I always pause when these coastal systems are showing up for multi-day events. Although far from a Dec. 92 event, multiple rounds of high tides and northeast winds will cause issues - not having that added extra foot foot and a half from the moon will help being in mid cycle though.

    This is the worst freshwater flooding I've ever seen at the beach this is Wesley Lake in Asbury Park

    There's always that one car left here in Manasquan.

    large branch came down already in Wall Township by Manasquan

    Chatting with some of our mets the concern is growing here in NJ. Will probably have to double up on the rain gear for the morning shows tomorrow. No panic bells and alarms just YET but this evening's newscasts will certainly have a different tone than this morning.

    First soaking rain band just moved through the Ocean County beaches. Second one incoming.
  14. Big Jims Videos
    Can Ocean County get 15 inches of rain in a week? At the very least our perpetual drought blip on the monitor over us will be long gone.
  15. Big Jims Videos
    Nws forecast just updated for me 1-2 inches of rain Friday now - on top of what falls tonight and Friday night. That's a big upgrade and I suspect the next discussion should be lengthy.

    This is how Bay Head looks this morning about two hours after high tide

    I am with Walt on the coastal flood potential Friday. Highest astronomical tides of the year, weeks of higher than normal waves and water stuck in back bays, already minor to moderate beach erosion from Ophelia and Friday could be the finale.

    Wind gust to 51 in Belmar at a home reporting station. It definitely sounds like Saturday outside again.
  19. Big Jims Videos
    Gusts are back over 40 mph at the beaches with what best can be described as an immediate soaking mist if you stepped outside.
  20. Big Jims Videos
    As advertised at the beaches. Winds have constantly gusted 50+ lots of rain, beaches are getting pounded. Saw a power pole down in Brielle and lots of small branches all over town.
  21. Big Jims Videos
    That is a rough looking long range on some of the models this afternoon. Constant battering onshore flow and storms. Beaches are going to be hurting. Next weekend will have the highest lunar tides of the year.
  22. Big Jims Videos
    Could be a prolonged period of beach erosion/wave action coming on top of some small erosion issues from Lee's swells. Luckily full moon isn't for another week after this event.

    Perfect 100% day at the Jersey Shore for another local summer Sunday.
  24. Big Jims Videos
    There should be some great surf this weekend for the Asbury Park Sea Hear Now music and surfing festival. Probably the largest surf in years with a west component in the winds over the weekend as waves come down from close to 10 feet Friday to a 4-7 weekend swell at least.
  25. Big Jims Videos
    Was actually hot on the beach no clouds no wind. My friends from Florida visiting said we needed to go to shade at 1 pm lol. Beautiful weekend. Intense surf today again but they let us in the water in Point Pleasant Beach.
