"interaction with non tropical feature will cause Elsa to pack Isaias like  punch in the NE and MA. s to se winds cause more tree damage than NW at same speed   2 reasons, 1) most strong NW gusts in winter,. 2. Trees lean SE ( especially pines) Better lift. Prepare for outages"

Pretty nonsensical to just say that

Agree.    An an active year so far so no absence of threats.

It’s only a matter of time before a long track MDR formed major gets caught in that sling shot. Had Isais been a major at its Carolina landfall we would have had wind gusts over 100mph. Hardwood trees fail around 90mph something we have just avoided. Complete Puerto Rico style destruction of the power grid and potentially hundreds of billions to bury all the new lines. 
Great weather week overall! Last night was awesome, unfortunately tonight’s threat is doa

The threat of a major in this day in age across the northeastern megalopolis is something I feel that is about just as likely as a major ice storm; both are simply inevitable and both will cause massive grid issues. Who knows how CONED/NYSEG/what have you will respond to that.
