And maybe not. Might be a cloudy day. And it might just not even touch land.

People I know and respect are making me mad over this. I’m not in the least concerned over what the storm will do to the Charleston area as it currently looks like it wont be as bad for us as the severe Tstorms we’ve had in the past couple of days. Some here are still edgy and almost in a state of panic. If projections are accurate we may not get anything except rip currents at the beach. My concern is for those who live in and near the North Carolina Outer Banks and the Northeastern cities that may take a hit. I wish the damn thing would miss everybody.

Latest models are showing a direct hit on NYC. This could be very bad.

Looks a lot like Hurricane Bob in 1991, except that Bob was in October with cooler water. New England could be in for a really bad time.
I went through Gloria (1985) and Bob (1991) which were major nuisances. Irene could be much worse.

Right now, it looks like it might come ashore on Long Island around midday on Sunday. This will have the leading edge of the storm funnelling all of its waves and stormsurge straight into the mouth of New York Harbor earlier in the day...and high tide is at 9:10 that morning.
Prayers up. This could get ugly.

The ocean water just north of the Bahamas is at normal temps for this time of year. Latest track has it steering more east. Water near the coast of New England however is warmer then normal for this time of year.

Okay, everybody on or near the Eastern seaboard...face East and BLOW!!! Maybe we can push it out to sea. I’m willing to try just about anything. ;-)

except that Bob was in October with cooler water.Nope, Hurricane Bob was in August 1991. A Monday. I lived on Cape Cod at the time and it was a horrible storm. I will never forget all the uprooted trees and boats washed up into the woods. And I was without power for 9 days.

Also, Bob hit at dead low tide. The forecast for this beast is at high tide with new moon.
I am in RI now, but not near the coast. Getting nervous about this one.

IIRC NYC is a libtard infested rathole. A hurricane just may be the enema they need.
