OK... I've gone back to this "jet stream map" post a couple times to digest what you said. I've got it now, I think. Thanks for your great answer.

So Ike interacting with this front pushing down from the north has high potential to yield fireworks during the next two days, it sounds like you're saying. That means we need to put tornado stuff up top here soon and keep it up. jeffers was suggesting such a scenerio, too.

I know that the hurricane itself is no longer, but with the damage still so unknown and this coming possibility of Ike not going quietly into the NorthEast, this thread could still have a good amount of life in it.

Therefore: Anybody who is anywhere near the remnants of Ike: hammer this frequently! ---

NWS Tornado Warnings

There are zero as of this post.

No warnings but watches...Look for the warnings in the late afternoon/evening when daytime heating increases the risk of severe weather.
