Wind SE 63km/h
Wind gusts 74km/h
Relative Humidity 94%
Dewpoint 13°C
Pressure 90.80 kPa

For Lunenburg. 908 MB? WHAT THE HECK? lol

You guys waaaay up there stay safe.

What an interesting storm. Lower pressure than the "Perfect Storm."

Wind SE 63km/h
Wind gusts 74km/h
Relative Humidity 94%
Dewpoint 13°C
Pressure 90.80 kPa

For Lunenburg. 908 MB? WHAT THE HECK? lol

There must be screwups on that. 908mb would be Category 5 pressure...and probably a world record for a non-tropical system...

[Just Joshing You]

I somehow doubt that they have had major screw ups twice.. they're quite consistent with the pressure.

Truro.. winds starting to howl. Pressure 996 MB.

[Hybridstorm_November2001]

Pressure 996 mb, winds still average of 30 mph gusting to 50 mph, with that one gust to 60 mph earlier. Still heavy rain.

The parking lot across from my home is starting to flood due to all the rain. I will have to watch that stream in my back yard it is getting rather full.

[Just Joshing You]

pressure down to 992 in a 20 minute period.

[Just Joshing You]

Well,

Wind SE 61km/h
Wind gusts 93km/h
Relative Humidity 100%
Dewpoint 16°C
Pressure 99.29 kPa
Visibility 3.2 km
Ceiling 300 ft


I take it that 61 KM/H is the sustained winds, which is TS force. Gusts to 93, which is about 56 MP/H.

[HurricaneBill]

Not as bad as Bob was here yet, had peak gusts to 75 mph, and in the November storm of 2001 peak gusts to 85 mph.

Wasn't the November 2001 storm also Noel?

This is an interesting damage report from Barnstable, MA:

0630 PM
M89.00 MPH BARNSTABLE MA
DAVIS ANEMOMETER - INSTRUMENT DESTROYED

I really don't think it gusted to 89mph on Barnstable. The anemometer probably gave an erroneous reading before committing suicide.

[Just Joshing You]

In November of '01, Noel wasn't a threat to land. It was absorbed by an Extratropical Low (which also absorbed Hurricane Michelle I believe) and then pounded Atlantic Canada.

[Terry]

From the reports, Barnstable got hammered, regardless of the suicidal anemometer.

If they get too strong, the winds might awaken you...
