Hey everyone, I have some bad news.
Seriously, this is NOT good. Remember that nor'easter I was talking about for Saturday? Yeah, it turns out TD#11 is showing signs of rapid intensification instead. A purely tropical storm is now a distinct possibility for this weekend. I don't mean to alarm anyone, but IF this happens, it could be one we're talking about for years...so keep your eyes open. Please.
There's no doubt we're getting a big storm of some kind. The question is whether it's just an abnormally strong rainstorm or one for the ages...or something in between, which is most likely, something like 1999's Tropical Storm Floyd is highly possible. Note that one concern is that the Gulf Stream waters are insanely warm for this time of year...so certainly let's hope for the best.
My hope is not to alarm you, but have your hurricane plans ready just in case it strengthens more than we think. It also doesn't take much- TS Irene had 60mph wind in Connecticut. This could easily do that...let's just wait and see.
