  1. RGEM is still quite nasty for just about everyone with 3-6" of rain everywhere. UKMET stayed sold on big rain everywhere. Even the 3k NAM has more rain tot he south than the 12k. Can't sleep on this just yet for the coastal areas.
  2. The "no big deal near NYC" models lift/arc that batch of rain to the north soon and dryslot the immediate metro. We'll see how it evolves. There are already flash flood warnings near Philly.
  3. We have to see where the warm front sets up. Models could tick back south with it. I'd say the best shot of anything excessive now though is N/W of the city.
  4. It’ll be north of where the warm front sets up. There’ll be heavy rain in spots south of it along with possible severe but north of the warm front is where that heavy steady rain will be. 12z models all trended that front north. It’s also probably helpful for severe that the worst of the storm here will be at night.
  5. 12z Euro back to pretty far north. For NYC, LI and south of I-78 it's 1-2" pretty much. Big amounts over 5" are in NE PA, parts of N NJ and I-84 corridor. The trough amplifying and stronger ridge as usual seem to be bumping it north. Keep the trend going!!
  6. The water table for most areas must be high enough that basements will flood with those kind of totals even away from rivers. Not good.
  7. Looks like there's consensus forming which unfortunately looks like the heaviest rain across the metro area/NJ/LI. RGEM shifted north at 6z when it's been south for a while. 5" for the south shore and 4" elsewhere around NYC/LI. 7" rain in Monmouth/Ocean Counties. Hudson Valley/N NJ mostly 1-3".
  8. That's the 0z map. The 6z has 4"+ for the area from I-80 and Tappan Zee bridge south. It definitely shifted south with the rain. So did the GFS.
  9. Could always see it keep going north due to the stronger ridge. Hard to bet against it. I agree. I've seen way more than enough rain.
  10. My brother lives in Lake Worth, FL and was there for Dorian. It's insane (lucky) how he had some gusty showers pretty much but 100 or so miles east over Grand Bahama Island was annihilated. The PBI to MIA stretch is incredibly overdue for a bad one and the check will come due soon. Once north of NC hurricanes completely change to much more broad impacts. The worst of Sandy was actually 100 miles N of the center.
  11. There won't be 10" of rain from this but the 4-6" here for most would definitely cause problems. Probably lots of flooding near any rivers which I'm sure are still full from runoff during Henri.
  12. Gas appliances are rare down south, it's mostly electric stoves. For those who do though-great. Thankfully the levees held in NOLA. Them being repaired/rebuilt recently I'm sure helped. The western suburbs though look horrendous.
  13. Nam is probably overdone with the rain but some areas could definitely see 3-5" with this. With the ground being so saturated it will present problems quickly for river basins.
  14. Katrina may have been the worst case track. Easterly winds piled water into Lake Pontchartrain and also up the Miss. River, then the northerly winds pushed the lake into the city. This track is bad though too, it's a 1964 Betsy type track. That drives water up the river and from the lakes/swamp south of them, but those likely soak up some of the surge before reaching the city. The danger seems to be more Lake Pontchartrain overflowing right into the city.
  15. We’re at the time of year where the seabreeze doesn’t make the conditions cooler. The temp goes down but humidity goes up.
  16. Same here. Irene had a lot of front end rain in Long Beach and the surge was pretty bad-most basements flooded but not first floors like Sandy. We had 60mph winds or so but tree damage wasn’t too bad. 3/2010 and Sandy eliminated essentially every big tree here.
  17. Thankfully the wind didn’t materialize outside a small area in RI. If there was 70 mph wind in NYC with the 8” of rain the tree/power line damage would’ve been horrific. As bad as Isaias was wind wise it happened with less than 1” of rain east of NYC. In a way it’s a blessing for hurricanes up here.
