Yeah I was laughing at an ensemble member from a model that was furthest west. I was sure to warn my parents that wires may fall on their home after I saw that.

Getting some sun now thru the high Cloud deck 

[SouthCoastMA]

my station had a gust of 26.1..lol

probably a bit low but this was like a weak nor'easter

[LongBeachSurfFreak]

Almost completely flat at Jones beach NY. What people do not realize as a storm transitions to extra tropical the stronger winds are focused on the SW side in relation to the sting jet. That has the effect of blowing down any previously generated SE swell. Behavior much closer to a normal cold season low and the reason east coasts do not receive swell like west coasts.
 

The weather channel live shots are bordering embarrassing. Like hello from drizzle and 30mph wind gusts…

Probably waiting for some interesting wx.

Light rain, maybe 0.02", and gusts about 30 - trees are getting their exercise but no more than that so far.

Ya saw that coming for a while…too far east in the end for you guys too.  A yawner as is most(obviously not all) of the tropical up this way.  Someday we’ll get a good one again, but for now the wait goes on. 

[forkyfork]

surely you guys won't buy into the euro when it's west of everything next time right

[forkyfork]

but the weathermodels map showed 70 foot waves

Who bought the euro?   And I'm not talking about the 2 or 3 weenies that always swing for the fences....

Looks clean and consistent on this cam at the North beach wall.  Hard for me to tell how big they are:

Now that I dont have drive to NYC twice/month I range just 6 miles or so. The heart of metropolitan Aroostook County has all I need.

Had a balloon land in my field last month 

Was working on my little cabin down there to the right when they dropped in. Gave us a nice bottle of champagne! 

Sky was full of 'em for days. 

Spending my time making a wood shed / smoke house addition for my cabin. 

Winter is coming and I'm camping out in it! 

Thanks for asking.

I think that was the same dude that had it "barreling" up the coast like 38 with Nigel right behind it. No one believed it.

Pretty exposed there so should see some good breakers, High tide in PWM is 12:47 pm and shortly thereafter there.

Are you new here? 

[dryslot]

Over 65K without power.

[wxeyeNH]

Just enough of a shower here to wet the deck.  The best part about Lee was the huge cirrus shield on the western side last night.  Beautiful sunset over a wide area of the Northeast.

Here was the view from my front lawn

Winds in Nova Scotia so far look decent but not overly impressive (topping out at about 65-70 mph from what I've seen so far). Surge might be a different issue. 

[STILL N OF PIKE]

Surf is rocking at Hampton 

7.9 at 15.4 sec ESE at Jeffrey ledge bouy 

nice little short lived pulse up

[PowderBeard]

More consistent gusts in the mid to upper 30s. Just waiting on the power to go out.

Saw a clip of a wet-suited surfer at OOB - waves looked about half as high there.

Our forecast 1/4-1/2" has so far verified at 0.02".  The 55 mph gusts have (fortunately) not reached here either, though we're somewhat sheltered by the 80-foot trees all around.

908 outages in NH. Can't even mix down strong enough winds to topple over a few dead maples.
