Piers Corbyn's Weather prediction

Another oddity is that it’s going to be over 60 degrees tomorrow and most of the week at Timberline on Mt. Hood, at 6,000 ft. Should be a bunch chillier there, by now. In ten days it should be down to around 45 but ski season other than the permanent snow field is going to have to wait a while longer.
I've had my eye on Sandy before it even entered the Caribbean just as I do all storms west of Africa between June and December (Hurricane Season).
It's not my job to "blow off" everybody on FR that believe in conspiracy theories, quote Alex Jones or watches Glenn Beck.
NOLA did not experience a 30' storm surge. The max surge was 27' on the MS coast. Max surge in and around NOLA was 12-16'. Surge was 12' at Lakefront.
But...its apples and oranges. You can't compare surges from one place to another as if they are all the same. A 14' surge over Miami would do MASSIVE amounts more damage than say a 30' surge along the MS/AL coasts...or in Chambers County TX.
A 12' surge at Kings Pt and 11' at Battery Park will cause a LOT of damage...much more than 12' in MS.
You can’t possibly be serious ........
Well the 2am report has it leaving its NE path and turning North, so its doing everything they said it would at this point.
No one's saying that there isn't any storm... some are just suggesting that it might not be the biggest meanest storm in the history of mankind.
The positions for 3am and 6am GMT on the map are both Longitude -70.50 so the storm is moving due North.
The Euro has been the BOMB for this storm. Even when the NHC was worshiping the GFS I felt the EURO had it right. No doubt the Euro won this round.
He missed the day sixth grade went to the planetarium and saw the moon and sun on nearly opposite sides of the earth. Then missed science class in the 8th when they learned the word “syzygy”.
It's looking more to me like the eye may just hit around NY city, but that's just a wild guess at this point.
Three powerful jet streams colliding at the same time. This would have been a powerful Nor'easter without the hurricane; you throw in the hurricane and its low pressure with these ingredients, and for one of the few times in my life I will be saying tomorrow: OMG!
I agree with you, the EURO has been the best on this.....and I’m not a meteorologist, just a bit of a weather geek.
Thanks for your voice of sanity on this thread.
“the 2am report”
What website are you using to get the position please?
Get a hatchet and punch a hole through the roof. Make a quick stop at Hardees and get a bunch of biscuits. Get yourself back toot sweet and make sure the news is on so you know when to get out of the smartly prepared hole in the roof. Don’t forget the biscuits.
Sorry .. watching The Weather Channel.
After living in Florida for 13 years and having been through several hurricanes, I’ve gotten used to tracking these things even though I’m in Southern California now.
The NE is really going to catch a lot of flooding that will cost taxpayers an awful lot of money to clean up.
Actually there have been some saying there is no storm and the "storm" has been made up by the Obama controlled government agency NOAA who have been ordered to make a normal rain event look like Armageddon.........
It may not be the biggest or meanest in history - but it is one weird system. Hurricane/tropical storms morphing into a nor'easter is not exactly something seen very often.
