Great storm. Moved the threat to Global Weather as this ULL doesn't apply to the tropics.

This is one of the largest if not the largest Extratropical low pressure system I have ever seen. Does anyone keep track of the largest ones?

This is an incredible storm. I've never seen anything like it on the east coast here, and such a storm would likely cause major coastal damage.
