ATL: IRENE - Remnants - Discussion

[brunota2003]

You guys watching this? http://www.hurricanetrack.com/ one of the Sound's in N.Carolina completely exposed as the winds driving the ocean water completely back out to sea.

That is pretty cool stuff. I wish they'd go to the other side and show where all that water went.

Look at the mid-atlantic thread, and you'll see a couple pictures of where it all went!

Just got back from last run for supplies, Live 20 miles southeast of DC and 20 miles west of Chesapeake Bay, well over 1" of rain and frequently increasing gusts to over 40mph now power flickering, I have a cocorahs gauge and account. I will be online as long as possible and take rainfall totals as possible. In case power and internet go out, good luck to all in path along coast. This storm is for real and will be long duration.

Those rain bands dumping water on Massachusetts are unrelated to Irene as well. They've developed ahead of the storm and dont seem to be related to the spiral banding of the storm.
