Afternoon update: storm moving ashore now in NJ, Battery park; other low-lying areas brace for historic flooding

Leave a comment

Now this is crunch time. The center of circulation is bearing down on the NJ coast and the winds are picking up here in Maine.

Rain is now moving into the Detroit area now and is continuing steadily in most of the mid-atlantic states.

Forecasts are now holding steady and true (see posts below) and so I will not elaborate too much here.

New update from NHC:
NW movement at 28mph
pressure 940mb
winds 90mph

Hunker down and stay safe!

New Advisory

Leave a comment

The new NHC advisory is out and Sandy has strengthened like I forecast yesterday to 85mph, 946mb and is moving N now at 15 mph. This is the beginning of the inward hook towards the coast. Winds and rain will be affecting most of the eastern third of the country by this evening.
