Expecting much rain in Montreal from this?

NAM and GFS have 3-6 inches here across the metro from NW to SE to the VT border,

i have a hard time believing these conditions, but we shall see.

the st lawrence valley can get real windy though funneling those winds, and especially along the south shore, but im sure you know this already.

heavy deluge for you too! :popcorn:

Env canada calling for 60mph winds, like i said we shall see....

Metro Montréal - Laval

9:23 PM EDT Saturday 27 August 2011

Wind warning for

Metro Montréal - Laval continued

Rainfall warning for

Metro Montréal - Laval continued

Winds northeast 70 to 100 km/h are expected over these areas.

At 09:30 PM, category 1 hurricane Irene is near the Wallops Island in Virginia. This tropical system continues to move up the east American seaboard and will reach the New England Sunday evening. Later on, it will become a post-tropical low pressure system while moving toward the Gaspésie and the Lower North Shore Monday.

Heavy rain will affect several regions west of its track. This area of rain will affect a great part of southwest and Central Quebec and of the low-St Lawrence Sunday where 50 to 100 millimetres of rain are expected. Moreover, high northeasterly winds 70 to 100 km/h will blow in a corridor from Montréal toward the Lower Saint-Laurent.

Rain and winds will spread eastward and affect the lower St Lawrence and the Gaspé Peninsula Sunday night through Monday. Strong winds associated with this storm will occur during a period of strong tides and will favour coastal flooding. Storm surge warnings are already in effect for coastal regions of the St Lawrence river between Quebec City and the Lower North Shore for these periods.

Public warning: the storm's track is gradually becoming clearer. Please consult next forecasts, as warnings could be extended to other regions of Quebec later today.

Please refer to regional public forecasts issued by Environment Canada for details pertaining to each region. These forecasts can be found at WWW.WEATHEROFFICE.GC.CA.

People are probably getting a few hours of sleep before things really start getting active.

Yeah, I'm about to do the same. Still really like its current trajectory on sat and WV...Mt. Holly radar seems down for the moment so can't track it there right now.

look how far east recon is...72.3W...56 kt sfmr 85 kt flight level. The wind field is so broad that a NYC/JFK landfall is probably ideal for SNE lol.

It's definitely pushing that rain shield pretty far inland so you may get a lot. Hey it looks like a Nor'easter now, but maybe they will keep calling it a cane until NY landfall.

FYI, I was doing my stint at Carleton in Ottawa during Gloria. We got a lot of rain from that way inland there.
