Shes deepening??


Yeah although it probably is a little higher on the surface (950ish range) it shows that will take a while for this to wind down.

Yep. Will be really interesting to see what happens when this gets back over water, especially with the jet ventilating it. As epsilon and others have shown, a storm can do well in marginal or even sub-marginal SSTs if the upper air support is good.

Winds are picking up a bit here and it's raining (has been raining) a good bit. Cecil co. is starting voluntary evacuations for lowlying areas. Right now I'm feeling really guilty as I was supposed to drive into Baltimore this evening for a service & mass for a former co-worker that passed away this week, and I'm not sure about doing the trip. Going down should be ok, but the trip back tonight is what is concerning- I expect that by 10p.m. or so when I'd be on the road back it'll be much less pleasant.

I have my weather station hooked up and running, sorry no webcam-I don't have one yet :( The wind data is not correct as it unfortunately is in the lee of the house. I need to find a better spot for it so my data is better, but as I keep having to clean the wasps out of my rain gauge, it needs to be easily accessible! http://english.wunderground.com/weatherstation/WXDailyHistory.asp?ID=KMDNORTH11

Did they drop a sonde, I wonder? 946.8 on the plane...probably closer to 949 on the surface.

I heard from my parents. They said its starting to lighten up a bit in Beaufort but still really windy and raining. They said there are lots of limbs and debris down and that they had a tree come down near the house but not on the house.

Well, it didn't strengthen over water 24 hours prior to landfall, so I don't expect any increase in strength once it once again gets over water.

#1, huge systems like this increase in strength very slowly
#2. The time over the water will be short duration. If this was in the Gulf, then yes, it would probably strengthen a little bit.

Agreed, but I also think #1 also lends itself to "huge systems will decrease in strength very slowly"

This flooding actually IS part of Irene, according to my eyes and to the Taunton, Mass NWS. Huge dang hurricane with so many people having to endure it for such a long time!

That's true. The size is what's kept this as a hurricane, even with land interaction...

I was told that on twitter & had the same thought about the pressure.

Can Long Island and NYC still expect to see the category 2 storm surge many on this board were predicting?? After all, storm surge is the biggest threat and I heard many here say that even if Irene weakens to a category 1, because of the size there would still be storm surge to the extent of a 5 (on a 0-6 scale).

Here in lower Gloucester County, VA...Winds have not been impressive at all with regard to "sustained" but they seem to be especially bad in the gusts...even our local MET commenting on the unusually high gusts that wouldn't be expected with the lower sustained winds...when it gusts, it can be wild. Have lost a few trees, but none were threats to our home, fence or pool. With regard to sustained winds...similar to TS Ernesto in our location. Most of the water around now is from the rain...our pool overflow drain can't keep up, so the pool is p-r-e-t-t-y full right now. Noticing tide beginning to make up as evidenced by suddenly higher amounts in our ditches...FIL says at dead low tide, the water was probably 2-3 ft above a normal high tide at his place. We still have power, we still have cable, internet & phone...for now.

The rain bands currently moving through Massachusetts are in fact from an old warm/now stationary front per NWS ADDS and SPC Mesoanalysis:
