HurricaneJosh Posted September 4, 2011 Share Posted September 4, 2011 So we can count on you not to use the derisive term "icep*ssies" when speaking of us, your friends? I'm afraid I'm unable to promise that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ski MRG Posted September 4, 2011 Share Posted September 4, 2011 Right...well... 1) I suggested that he may have prsented himself in that light. 2) We prob do have more SnowNH's relative to the tropics, than the southern posters do...all I meant. NBD....I know why you reacted in that manner. Dude, I'm awake at 2:41 AM because I have a baby in the house that seems to sleep all day and play all night. Kind of like you.lol Forgive my crankiness. I think it's safe to go back to bed now. Later. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CT Rain Posted September 4, 2011 Share Posted September 4, 2011 Not surprisingly our fun with Katia has come to an end. Should recurve harmlessly out to sea. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A-L-E-X Posted September 4, 2011 Share Posted September 4, 2011 Well yeah the astro tide added a foot... but the fact that the peak surge was at high tide and not low tide was a bigger factor. What was the highest surge you guys got on the CT shore with Irene? I remember hearing reports of a 10.5 foot surge! The highest wind gust I could find for the region was the 83 mph report from Rhode Island..... was there anything higher? Rainfall was a pretty uniform 6-12" " Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The highest wind gust I could find for the region was the 83 mph report from Rhode Island..... was there anything higher? Rainfall was a pretty uniform 6-12" " 10.5 ft may have included the tide. It had the potential to be a huge surge producer due to it's large size and slower movement if it maintained more intensity. Even though it was still large...95 kt vs. 55-60 kt makes a huge difference Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CT Rain Posted September 4, 2011 Share Posted September 4, 2011 I'm routing for a NC hit...that appears much more likely than something for SNE. If it wound up going way west over NC we could get some of the remnants. But I think a direct hit is exceedingly unlikely. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it's a real possibility. The ECWMF ensembles have Katia near 29N/76W at 144 hours. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The ensemble mean is getting skewed by some members that are WAY southwest. There are a handful in the Bahamas lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The 00z Euro would give officials a few heart palpitations though if that was the ultimate track.. Great surf and rips with that track. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baroclinic Zone Posted September 4, 2011 Share Posted September 4, 2011 Phil put up a very astute analysis of the progression of the Euro and why we're seeing a more westerly track with Katia. Spells it out pretty well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CoastalWx Posted September 4, 2011 Share Posted September 4, 2011 Not only is Lee weaker, but look at the 500mb ridge in the Altantic, on Phil's graphic. Notice we have weaker upper level lows within the ridge, thus the ridge is broader and stronger. Funny how someone brought up Emily in '93, because that's exactly what I thought..lol.

Damage In Tolland Posted September 4, 2011 Author Share Posted September 4, 2011 Looks like a hit is looking much more likely today BigJoeBastardi Joe Bastardi Katia forecast into Carolinas now by some models.

Chrisrotary12 Posted September 4, 2011 Share Posted September 4, 2011 It is kinda amazing all the different model solutions that we are seeing. A few taking her into the carolinas, a few teasing the EC and a few taking her harmlessly away. Should be fun to see which set is closest to the truth in the end. Right now if I had to pick one particular model that I think will be closest in the end it would be the Euro. I think that she will tease us but turn harmlessly out to sea while giving us some very nice swells and not so nice rip-current danger. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mica Vim Toot Posted September 4, 2011 Share Posted September 4, 2011 So we can count on you not to use the derisive term "icep*ssies" when speaking of us, your friends? Hurricane Squish is a ghoul who parachutes in to strangers' misery to observe and record their suffering. Then he flits away. "Adios, mi amigos!" It takes a real sadistic streak to do that. Try to think of yourself as a local. How much would you despise such a creature were you one of the unfortunates who had to sate his gruesome hunger for others' pain? Truly an ugly hobby- one that tarnishes all Americans as this camera-laden technology-heavy wealthy voyeur delights in a victim's helplessness and destruction. His posting style is passive-aggresive, like a prom princess. A snip followed by a smiley. What a distasteful ponce. He disgraces us all. I avoid his threads. Vim Toot!

I do think the vast majority of posters in the main tropical threads are intelligent folks with a wealth of knowledge on the subject. A few weenies post things that make me cringe with wishes for big hits. The analysis by the smart folks is worth reading but several have poor people skills. I prefer our own subforum and reading Ryan, Scott, Will, etc for red dudes and Ray, Ginx, Bob and BIrv, plus some others for amateurs on the subject I can't really add info but I feel fine asking questions here Looks like Ryan is doing well with this one Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deckhand at the wheel.... Off Watch Hill headed east for PVD w/diesel for SE CT & RI drivers. I delivered some to Rensselaer for you last week. It's been a nice cool summer both at home in PQI and at my floating palace on the North Fork where I rode out the hypocane. No damage there at all. Branches only, most from already compromised trees. Very wet up north all summer. I hope you are getting back on your feet along with your VT neighbors up there in CNE. Didn't see any pics from Chesterfield but the Shelburne Falls photos were impressive even if outrageouly photoshopped for that "sepia" look they had. Leaves are turning rapidly in PQI according to my lush and adoring wife. My sleds still sleep, but they stir. I'll be waking them up soon. Vim Toot!
