OK, this post has to take the case as one of the most hysterical ones I have seen from you Chris.
Both in terms of how hysterically I laughted and the level of hysteria this has worked you up into.
I would bet anything you have that you will never see a Hurricane Warning from Noel.
Even if ALL OF THE EXPERTS are wrong and it gets real close to us; the associated weather is on the east side and this WILL NOT go west of us so it is a moot point anyway.
Thanks for the fun!
didn't recon find the strongest winds in the
nw quad just awhile ago? I do not want a storm other than some rain, maybe. But for those, even the mets, that continue to say it will be nothing - did everyone forget what Charlie did? I am in no way suggesting I think it could pull a Charlie - I'm not, but even with a strong ts we could lose power and I want to be prepared and ready. When it is not following the direction of the NHC then I begin to really keep my eye on it - such as going further west than they had thought, the winds are in the nw quad, etc. There was already a power outage from the winds earlier this morning. These things can defy all odds sometimes and when they are this close to home I am going to keep my eye on them until they are gone. There may be a few with theatrics here but I think most of us just want to see it get past our lat/lon and then we will breathe easy.
