definitely needed for LI and perhaps S CT given how wet it's been here

Any word on timing with this rain?  TWC is showing Saturday is more showery in nature while putting the big rains for Saturday night into Sunday.

That’s what it’s looking like. Most of the precip will fall Saturday night into Sunday

starting on eastern long island already BUT the storm is outside the benchmark and crawling will have to make a move westward  - might have showers much later tonight around NYC and eastern NJ metro

Good thing this isn’t a winter storm weenies would be jumping ship see all that moisture off the coast and not moving much.

 I’m not saying the Euro is necessarily going to be right. But I’m passing this along because it’s objectively determined and easily available to the wx community. So fwiw:

 The new Euro ensemble (12Z) maintains the 90-100% chance that the 0Z and 6Z had for a tropical storm to form from this:

The run from just 24 hrs earlier for the same period had only just over 70% for the chance:

Satellite already looks like a beast incoming.

Wouldn’t be surprised to see Long Island maybe even queens and Brooklyn get upped to high wind warning. Models seem to be increasing them sat night into Sunday

State of Emergency for NYC , Nassau, Westchester and Suffolk.

NAM drops 3-5 inches of rain LI now

WHAT...For the High Surf Advisory, large breaking waves of 9
  to 15 feet in the surf zone. For the High Rip Current Risk,
  dangerous rip currents. For the Coastal Flood Advisory, up to
  one half foot of inundation above ground level expected in
  vulnerable areas near the waterfront and shoreline. For the
  Coastal Flood Warning, one to two feet of inundation above
  ground level expected in vulnerable areas near the waterfront
  and shoreline.

Tunnels to towers 5k walk/ run is still going on Sunday.  I will be participating in it. Going to be interesting weather wise.

Ouch. Tomorrow night is really going to rip some winds through here. This is from the euro. 925mb plus a sounding from the same time. I usually feel like winds are whatever, but this time it looks kind of legit. Nam just spit out something similar too.

Orange County recently posted this in an attempt to get people to understand them better.

Hi Res NAM (and some other models) have this occurring a bit further north and has much tamer winds than some earlier runs. We'll see if it was just a blip but often as these events approach they trend a bit NE and weaker so we get a bit of a lackluster storm relative to expectations. 

We'll see how it unfolds, but personally I much prefer the 12Z NAM runs (despite sputting out far less precipitation. Rain events are a dime a dozen, good wind and coastal flooding is somewhat rarer).

Please stop posting the 3k NAM unless it’s for entertainment only.
