A few tornadoes will be possible from the Virginia Tidewater into
   New England Tuesday into Tuesday night, in association with Isaias.
   Scattered severe thunderstorms capable of producing large hail and
   damaging winds may also occur across portions of the northern and
   central Plains.

   ...Eastern North Carolina to New England...
   Latest forecast from the National Hurricane Center indicates that
   Isaias should be located over far northeastern NC and southeastern
   VA at the start of the period Tuesday morning. Isaias should
   accelerate northeastward along the Mid-Atlantic Coast and into New
   England through the period as it becomes absorbed within an
   upper-level trough over the eastern CONUS. A rather strong low-level
   flow field (60-70+ kt at 850 mb) will be present in the eastern half
   of Isaias' circulation, which will aid in substantial low-level
   hodograph curvature/enhancement.

   The best prospect for weak destabilization (MLCAPE 250-1000 J/kg)
   should exist along/near the Mid-Atlantic to southern New England
   Coast, where surface dewpoints should increase into the low to
   perhaps mid 70s through Tuesday evening. Given the very favorable
   low-level shear, primary concern will be a few tornadoes with any
   low-topped cells in outer rain bands along/east of the center of
   Isaias' circulation. Confidence has increased enough in the Isaias'
   track and potential for modest diurnal destabilization along/near
   the coast to include 5% tornado probabilities and a Slight Risk from
   the VA Tidewater region northeastward into southern New England.
   Eventually, the strong low-level shear should become displaced to
   the north of even weak inland destabilization across NH and ME by
   late Tuesday night. This should result in a gradual lessening of the
   isolated tornado threat with northward extent across New England.

The hurricanes in 1635, 1667,1693 and 1788 may have been major hurricanes. And a close miss in 1869. Others of interest are the 2 hurricanes in 1815 and the hurricane in 1849.

I was reading an old weather book a few years ago, so I may have the year wrong, but it stated that there was a hurricane in early October 1804 (Cat 2- but it stated F2 for some reason), that dropped snow in Boston and sleet in NYC with temps in the 30s.  The storm basically bisected LI and CT.

Interesting track...... guys, look up Bertha 1996.  This one might have a track similar to that one.....65 mph TS when it made landfall near JFK.  The track is close enough to the ocean for it not to weaken rapidly, plus its speed up the coast will help it maintain its structure up here.

Satellite imagery shows the center is on eastern edge of the cone. Correct me if I'm wrong. 

Yep, especially the European has been too far west with this consistently ever since it said it was going to make LF in South Florida.  This will probably make landfall near Cape Fear like Bertha 1996 did and track up to western LI at a similar intensity.

Western LI isn’t a little East that’s Way East then any model I think maybe nyc or just west

Fay was like that east of the city-one firehose band and that was it....

You guys put way, way too much weight towards the NAM. It's a short term model designed for forecasting convection, not a complex tropical system that's transitioning and interacting with a trough. The rain isn't going to be confined to that one consolidated area. You're going to see multiple bands on the Eastern side. Just look at the current radar situation over the Mid-Atlantic. That MCS pushing into DC is non-existent on the NAM.

I see your point but every model has that same narrow band of heavy rain....
