STORM2K

Rumors of a powerful northeaster wed night into friday along the mid atlantic coast, storm force winds 45-65 mph with higher gusts...22 foot seas and tides up to 6 feet above normal what local guys screaming at here in SE VA. a 6 foot above normal tide puts water in my house up to my waste.....YIKES!!!!! Any take on this?

I haven't heard much about it, then again I am in central Florida. April nor'easters aren't that common as far as remember living in Massachusetts for just under 22 years. (I was born there)

I can't comment on the tidal cpncerns,,,I didn't really check for that,,,since i'm not at the Jersey shore just yet,,,lol.

I do see some very strong winds,,,don't think your area will be as bad as some along the Jersey coast as our anticyclone that was hold in by confluence for the last event top produce CAD will move out meanwhile LP rides from the north and strong pressure gradient will set up and VERY ~windy~.

The track of this Low pressure system will be tricky,,,there might be more than 1 low,,,heck some inidcations show more than 2. The trough will sharpern up and come more amplified as omega sig. in the Western US riging with +pna phase,,,,,,,,,,the torugh will take a neg.tilt causieing more northward movement but models show this thing not moving at all. Nice WAA and ATL advection,,,,,,,there will be overrunning precip. I'll have more details later.

Water up to your waist!!! Yikes..at least it's not snow!!!!
