Agnes thanks for those radar shoots!  Wind coming and going.  One minute looks fine, next minute it is ripping rain and gusty.  I turned the AC off for a minute til this band blows through.

My sons room which is a spare room now -had an open window.  Whoops

Definitely a push of the heavier stuff coming your way!  They just dropped a Tornado warning in NW Delaware west of Wilmington, for an area of storms that is moving your way.

What time is this storm supposed to start? Lol no rain no wind by sandy hook 

You'll probably stay on the dryer side in the dry slot once that trailing band off the ocean (not sure if there's a name for that) passes over you.  You'll feel some wind this afternoon forsure.  

I was debating shooting down to DE to chase the swell but I think I'm gonna just chill and maybe hitup Manasquan super early tomorrow.  I slept like crap and I don't think it's gonna clean up nearly as well as Fay did, its moving too fast, too far inland and too late.  If anything DE has the best shot of scoring this evening due to their ENE exposure and the predicted SW winds.  Manasquan, NJ should be fun sized in the am with offshore winds though.

You were just south of a tornado too!  There was one reported by a spotter in Strathmere.
