Anyone at the beach right now know this is not a bust. Surf is the biggest since sandy. Definite severe beach erosion occurring 

I'm out at the Hamptons, where waves are easily over 10 ft at times. Significant erosion already. I'm expecting the ocean to make it to the "last line of defense" dunes at tonight's high tide.

Waves just south of fire island continue to spike, significant wave heights now approaching 12 ft.

Even Craig Allen mentioned it. It has the rgem and ggem in its corner so maybe we shouldn't totally discount it

If Hermine can find a way to get back to 73-72W then we would at least feel some moderate to potentially strong winds. Unfortunately low confidence in that as the NHC has Hermine riding the 70W contour.

Boston's thoughts. Still a lot of uncertainty.

 

.NEAR TERM /THROUGH TONIGHT/...

2 PM Update...

Other than gusty northeast winds up to 35 mph over the Cape and
Islands...pleasant weather being observed across southern New
England with temps in the 70s to near 80 inland. Previous forecast
captures this well so no major changes planned with this update.

12z model guidance ... models have trended farther north and west
tracking Hermine...even the new 12z EC. 12z RGEM appears on the
southwest edge of the envelope while the NAM is the farthestnorth.
UKMET and GFS are clustered in the middle of the pack. 00z EPS and
12z GEFS continue to show large spread. Given the complex
interaction between the baroclinic mid level trough over Hermine
now and it`s low level tropical circulation along with proximity
to the Gulf Stream all suggest high uncertainty in track and
intensification of Hermine thru Wed. Thus best course of action is
to follow a model blend which is very close to a UKMET/GFS
solution. Will elaborate more after coordination with NHC around 4
pm.

This was a taste of old school 70's and 80's weather modeling and forecasting. You knew yesterday when Hermine took off further to the east

and the sun came out later in the day that this would end up much further east than forecast. I can't even tell you how many times this

happened especially with winter storms in those days .The old joke was you kew the snowstorm was going to go OTS when the moon was visible

through a high thin overcast. There will always be a place for the great nowcaster since models will never reach a state of 100% perfection.

 

Heavy snow warning and waking up to partly cloudy. ..60s were great..sometimes the forecast was partly cloudy and the next morning it would be snowing..I really miss not knowing..those were the days

Good point. I was paying too much attention to the electronic sign. Saw the same message on the SSP just 30 minutes ago and had a flashback to the January 2015 blizzard debacle.

Also the Green Sign says "Exit 58" "Old Nichols Rd"

18z NAM is significantly more west and south.

lol.

even it's initial position seems a bit too far east then it actually is.

this might not be over, folks..

Wouldn't surprise me to see this loop partway back...don't think it would be enough to dramatically change sensible weather for most.  Seems on WV like there is a piece of vorticity diving through NC curious if that will do anything...fwiw I'm over this thing just curious to see if we see a faint ghost of the type of interaction that we expected three days ago.
