I could hear a "PLEASE GOD" coming from the west after you posted that. Stay safe.

Yup, rain's the story here. If we can get that axis of heavy rain over us Saturday or Sunday watch out. I'm at 7.55" since September 8. Unreal how wet it has been...my lawn is having trouble draining lol.

Probably would remain unless it became clear in time that development wasn’t happening.

The first SHIPS forecast was eye opening and I think there’s a good chance of the dynamics I posted about earlier leading to development of an inner core. Time is the limitation here, I think.

30% IMO 100%

Keep the rain/snow line over Manhattan please

Here are the anomalies And actual temps

Seeing that LLC become better defined, but like the NHC stated, center reformations will be possible. We'll see how the next few hours go, but it's coming together. Likely won't become tropical until it's closing in on NC.

With more light, you can see a well defined LLC, but note that as the NHC said, center reformations will be possible, especially with convection to the east and high shear present off the SE coast.

Nah, this should go over NC and into the Mid-Atlantic. Makes it post tropical up our way unless it trends east and stays off the coast—even then the waters north of the GS are cold. Shear is high off the SE coast too so while I think it can trend a little stronger there is a ceiling.

I think there’s a good chance this keeps trending a little stronger. The 50kt opening bid by the NHC is a nod to those stronger global runs. Looks pretty wet here. Not sure how that’ll trend.

Homebrew delivers.

Going tropical as of that advisory.

I’ve seen this happen a few times recently with homebrew systems. Kind of surprised the NHC wasn’t higher given the cross guidance signal on the models, particularly in the last 24 hours.

I love it.

Agree. This looks like an uncommon SE homebrew in the sense that it’s forming on an old boundary and not getting shunted ENE out to sea. Atlantic ridging FTW. Might have some good gusts along the CT and LI coast with the gradient from the developing high to the north.

PTC 16 coming at 11am now. Escalated quickly lol.

PTC 16 coming at 11 now.

Wondered why they didn’t go higher earlier.

It does, but the general trend has been stronger on the globals.

It’s homebrew/hybrid or nothing at all. MDR season is done as far as NE is concerned.
