CoastalWx Posted August 24, 2011 Share Posted August 24, 2011 a loop shows that it is originally synoptically driven by the shortwave with the low heights over Eastern Canada...but it's definitely being enhanced by the hurricane. Should be a nasty jet streak there for sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snowNH Posted August 24, 2011 Share Posted August 24, 2011 And the power companies were working there azzes of trust me, my wifes family who live about 3 miles north of rte 1 in the back country had no power for 7 days. That area is filled with massive maples, ash and oak.........the area from Greewich - stamford-darien and even into Norwalk and Westport were just decimated. Trees down everywhere. Since then the power companies have truly done a ton of pruning along roadways.....but its a losing battle if something like Irene comes through as modeled, forget about it. It really is amazing what the crews do. 12 on 12 off. Engineers/designers/PMs working OT for 2 weeks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CT Rain Posted August 24, 2011 Share Posted August 24, 2011 I joked about this 5 months ago when we planned this. I sh*t you not. Well if you get hit, I'll enjoy the obs from here. It's all good. Having a blast so far and Yosemite and SFO to come. No need to sacrifice a marriage to weenie out during a cane..lol. Although I would not disagree if she wanted to get back. This sounds sick but I try not to plan any vacations via plane in late August and September. Blizzards I can miss and be ok. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HarveyLeonardFan Posted August 24, 2011 Share Posted August 24, 2011 Let's not make SNE threads like the main thread, I think snowNH has mostly had useful posts with the same amount of banter posts as any of the other regulars on here. I agree. Some of the SnowNH bashing is excessive and quite frankly rather elitist and altogether unnecessary. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snowNH Posted August 24, 2011 Share Posted August 24, 2011 The main threads are filled with DBs.....you can't say anything without being cyberraped. Yea its not even worth reading anymore... Its like rotational posts of LEKking, lookout, wxsmwhrms, and Tip(best poster) I mean its good to have only mets post, but it kinda sucks when the posts are spread out every 20 minutes. Thats why the NE thread is good. There is constantly posts, whether they be good (Will) or bad(me) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DomNH Posted August 24, 2011 Share Posted August 24, 2011 Dom, rivers are pretty well above the Median but not insanely so, but more rain Friday and then.... http://waterdata.usgs.gov/ct/nwis/current/?type=flow Thanks Steve. River flooding is the main concern up here obviously...1938 devastated ASH with flooding but that's obviously extremely unlikely and the worst-case scenario.

Clinch Leatherwood Posted August 24, 2011 Share Posted August 24, 2011 The thing is it can easily resume. All that has to happen in a hair more westerlies develop and it goes to the BM. Given the modeled slower than normal speed of the storm do you think this has a chance to make landfall in SNE as a 'cane? I was talking to someone today who mentioned that on the whole last year's storms verified west of guidance once they got north of Florida. IE, recurved too fast in all the models. That said isn't the early guidance just 18z corrected for position? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BrianLaverty Posted August 24, 2011 Share Posted August 24, 2011 Ryan has been warning about infrastructure issues for quite a while. I hope this is not a big test The houses build near the ocean are just not built to sustain much. When I went to Ocracoke and Hatteras this summer, I noticed how almost all houses were built on huge stills and were very high up. Do you see that in Rhode Island? No way.... And there is an endless amount of houses that were built right on the ocean. Now, some houses are built on hills, but I can think of 100s right off the top of my head that can't deal with the coastal flooding that we may get. I don't know how to link to specifics on Google Maps, but if you look at all the overpopulation near Matunuk, Point Judith, Newport, etc. I know Bonnet Shores is on the Bay, but jesus... those are all houses built below sea level and on the beach.
