Every cloud has a silver lining. Isaiah knocked out about a third of the power in New Jersey.

I think this is the first storm to come through here and us not lose power. It never even flickered that I know of. Blew a little bit and tide was maybe 3' above normal for a few hours but that was about it.

Yesterday while working in a small building in JoCo, was probably the closest I've been to a lightning strike in over 10 years. You know when the power goes out before the thunder claps it's close!

Be careful with that. Two gentleman in Wilmington were killed yesterday by lightning; they were my In-laws neighbors three houses away.
I saw that come across. The lightning was insane that morning. They really shouldn’t have been cutting.

I read alot on the other website y’all are on.How does 98 not get Pulled into old path of 97?

It's possible especially if 98L stays weak. The gfs and euro tend to bring it just north of 97L old track and over the big islands. One rule of thumb albeit not a set in stone is that stronger systems will trend North.
This things has 2 vorts fighting for dominance. Which one wins will have an effect on modeling.

Yeah, keep laughing, and listening to your local weather dude. I'll take my lengthier "warnings" from folks on this site, most notably the brothers. I wish we could archive their warnings, and the aftermaths. And when the worst DOESN'T happen??? They explain why.

Since I started teleworking, I miss the coffee pot discussions with the meteorologists on incoming storms.

When the last storm blew threw almost to the mph and landfall that downeast posted 4 days earlier I heard the weather channel say no one could have forecasted this storm like this. I laughed and showed my wife the post forecasting what the weather channel said was impossible.

98L has done some organizing overnight. Once a center consolidates modeling will improve.

Really its just getting started and thats the scary part, typically this time frame is when the tropics start to heat up and the long range modeling show lots of large scale features that drive tropical activity are coming together and will coincided with peak hurricane season so the next 7-10 days will be nothing compared to most of Sept and probably into Oct....do not be surprised to see them have to get into the Greek alphabet before the season is over as we round the bend on storm names for only the second time in modern times.

Think based on how it looks we have a Td designated at some point today or tonight.
