Just as an aside, I like how there was a category 5 hurricane carol in 1953, and they felt compelled to reuse the name the very next year.
-
Nam has some subtle differences at h250 that might account for the shift east. Trough interacts with upstream features a tad more and can't go as negative. Allows for more bagginess offshore. Granted this is probably overanalysis, but something to keep an eye on when the GFS rolls in.
-
I tend to give a little more weight to the globals, particularly the euro in this situation than I might in the deep tropics. If we can mostly all agree that the weak trough over the MA and the strength and position of the ridging over the top will be the key determining factors, I think you'd have to give deference to those models designed to handle such. JMO. At present GFS and euro seem to be on the eastern side of the current model envelope.

FL winds 60+kts in the SE quadrant

I think you're onto something with the taxes certainly. Pretty sure player contracts are all USD though. Yes the teams are taking in CAD but most of the ownership groups in Canada are not hurting for money (big corps) and usually spend to the cap. The old Nordiques maybe were an exception.
-
worth noting, that Diane was a totally different track. Straight firehose, almost like Boxing day or something.
-
Seems like 16.8" was the max in Diane in CT. That would qualify as easily. Only the state's biggest flood ever.
-
FWIW, Diane (1955) is BOS all time record at 7". Not sure what the max was for that one.
-
we'll see who blows by a foot "easily"
-
I'll also sell a foot of rain. I'd have to see to believe that around these parts for sure. If it should happen I'll give props to folks.
-
so we've gone from Harvey redux and worse than Sandy to it's over with one GFS run...
-
given that the northern stream s/w today might drag in a little dry air into NNE especially behind it, with the next one situated well back west of the lakes, and an U/L ridge moving overhead, it's not a typical setup for a PRE. There may be some moisture advection out ahead through the baroclinic zone, but not a lot of lift to be had.
-
I'd think that slower motion would be a negative signal for wind, even accounting for duration, given the rapid weakening that would occur over cooler waters. Hydro concerns might be ramped up however.

Should always use cash when patronizing small businesses and making small purchases. Unless you think the big banks deserve some of that transaction. Hitting the ATM machine is a small inconvenience you can totally manage to support the locals. Tip in cash too.

I went to People's Pint in Greenfield tonight and sign on the door said closed due to staffing. Saturday night. Sad.
-
I never understood why folks had so much trouble lining up by number frankly. It seemed way more orderly than on AA, etc., when they call group 3 and everyone pushes to the gate all at once like a herd of cattle. Or want to pay like $30 extra to not sit in a middle seat or at the back of the plane.
-
I only fly SWA. Luv luv luv. Companion pass, early boarding, skip the security line. Get the emergency exit seat with tons of room 90% of the time.
-
They should have had no walls and make the field the size of the Polo Grounds. If it rolls into the corn it's a ground rule double. But other than that, yeah I agree it's very cool. They lucked out with comfortable wx too.

Huge rainbow and incredible pastel hues tonight

Lol at cross posting
-
Like family
-
Honestly, my only regret is that this didn't happen during ski season
-
honestly, probably spend my 10 weeks of accrued vacation doing the same stuff I've been doing so all the radar network stakeholders don't get completely f*cked over. Then we'll see.

Decision came yesterday afternoon. The Monday deadline is for shot 1. Shot 2 deadline is 9/16.
