55mph gust at Brigantine, NJ..... NWS Warnings
... Hurricane Warning remains in effect...
... Probability of tropical storm/hurricane conditions...
the chance for hurricane conditions at this time is 3 to
10 percent. Also... the chance for tropical storm conditions at
this time is up to 91 percent.
... Winds...
as Hurricane Irene approaches... sustained tropical storm force
winds are expected to begin late this evening... with hurricane
force winds developing early Sunday morning. Maximum winds are
forecast to be in the 55 to 75 mph range with gusts up to 85 mph.
Damaging winds are likely. Homes may have damage to shingles...
siding... gutters and windows... especially if these items are not
properly secured. Loose outdoor items will become airborne...
causing additional damage and possible injury. Power lines will
be knocked down by falling trees... resulting in widespread power
outages. Many large branches of trees will be snapped... and a
numerous trees will be uprooted.
... Tornadoes...
isolated tornadoes are possible across Long Island... coastal
Connecticut... and the New York City Metro area as intense rain
bands move in from the south tonight.
... Storm surge and storm tide...
storm surge is highly dependent on track... intensity... and speed
of the storm as it approaches the coast. The combined effects of
storm surge and storm tide pose a serious threat with several
feet of water inundation possible along coastal locations.
Based on the forecast track of Hurricane Irene... there is
potential for 4 to 8 feet of surge across western Long Island
Sound and New York Harbor... with 3 to 5 ft of surge along the
South Shore bays of Long Island and New York City... Peconic and
gardiners bays... and eastern Long Island from early Sunday
morning into early Sunday afternoon. These tidal conditions will
be aggravated by accompanying large... destructive... and life
threatening waves on top of the storm surge.
High tide across New York Harbor and the South Shore of western
Long Island is around 8 am Sunday. In a worst case scenario...
water levels of 8 to 10 ft above msl are possible.
High tide across western Long Island Sound is around 11 am
Sunday. In a worst case scenario... water levels of 10 to 11 ft
above msl are possible.
High tide across eastern Long Island Sound is around 9 am Sunday.
In a worst case scenario... water levels of 7 to 8 ft above msl
are possible.
There is a 10 percent chance of the worst case scenario.
... Inland flooding...
a Flood Watch is in effect for the entire area. Rainfall amounts
of 6 to 12 inches with locally higher amounts are expected. See
the latest forecast for the most updated information. Listen for
possible flood warnings for your location... and be ready to act
if flooding rains occur.
... Coastal hazards...
increasingly large swells arriving from Hurricane Irene will
create high surf... significant beach erosion and washovers along
the Atlantic facing coastline tonight into Monday.
Significant beach erosion is also likely along the coastline of
Long Island Sound and Peconic and gardiners bays due to the surge
and battering surf.
... Rip currents...
dangerous and life threatening rip currents are expected through
Monday.
... Probability of tropical storm/hurricane conditions...
the chance for hurricane conditions at this time is 3 to
10 percent. Also... the chance for tropical storm conditions at
this time is up to 91 percent.

HURRICANE IRENE DISCUSSION NUMBER 25
NWS NATIONAL HURRICANE CENTER MIAMI FL AL092011
1100 AM EDT FRI AUG 26 2011
DATA FROM NOAA AND AIR FORCE RESERVE HURRICANE HUNTER AIRCRAFT
SUGGEST THE INTENSITY OF IRENE IS SLIGHTLY LOWER. ALTHOUGH PEAK
FLIGHT-LEVEL WINDS AT 700 MB WERE 111 KT...SFMR AND DROPSONDE
OBSERVATIONS INDICATED THAT A HIGHER-THAN-TYPICAL REDUCTION OF THE
WIND FROM FLIGHT-LEVEL TO THE SURFACE APPLIES...AND THE INITIAL
INTENSITY IS REDUCED TO 90 KT. GIVEN THE CURRENT STORM STRUCTURE
AND PREDICTED ENVIRONMENTAL FACTORS...LITTLE CHANGE IN STRENGTH IS
EXPECTED DURING THE NEXT 12 TO 24 HOURS. AFTER PASSING NORTH
CAROLINA...SOUTHWESTERLY SHEAR IS FORECAST TO INCREASE AND SEA
SURFACE TEMPERATURES WILL BE GRADUALLY DECREASING. THIS SHOULD
RESULT IN GRADUAL WEAKENING OF THE CYCLONE AS IT MOVES NEAR THE
MID-ATLANTIC COAST. HOWEVER...IRENE IS EXPECTED TO REMAIN A LARGE
AND DANGEROUS TROPICAL CYCLONE AND HAS THE POTENTIAL TO PRODUCE
DAMAGING WINDS...STORM SURGE FLOODING...AND EXTREMELY HEAVY RAINS
ALMOST ANYWHERE FROM EASTERN NORTH CAROLINA NORTHWARD THROUGH NEW
ENGLAND.
IRENE IS MOVING NORTHWARD OR 360/12 KT. THERE HAS BEEN NO CHANGE
TO THE FORECAST PHILOSOPHY. IRENE SHOULD MOVE NORTHWARD FOR ANOTHER
12 HOURS OR SO....FOLLOWED BY A GRADUAL TURN TO THE NORTH-NORTHEAST
AS IT MOVES ALONG THE EAST COAST OF THE UNITED STATES. THE TRACK
GUIDANCE IS IN GOOD AGREEMENT ON THIS SCENARIO AND NO CHANGE WAS
REQUIRED FROM THE PREVIOUS NHC FORECAST THROUGH 72 HOURS.
ONLY A SMALL ADJUSTMENT WAS MADE TO THE HURRICANE WARNING ON THIS
ADVISORY. IT IS ANTICIPATED THAT THE HURRICANE WARNING AND WATCH
AREAS WILL NEED TO BE EXTENDED NORTHWARD ALONG THE U.S. EAST COAST
THIS AFTERNOON.

Here is the latest from the Hurricane Center.
Irene will impact NY,NJ this weekend!!!
**********ALERT ! *************
Irene is trending closer to New Jersey on the late night model maps at midnight. Bad weather is likely this weekend. Very strong winds and heavy rain will likely ensue, from a strong storm hugging the coastline and may plow right into the 5 boroughs of New York city. The Friday morning forecast should give a clear view of what may happen. The storm is still 3 days away, and a change in path will change the forecasts.
This is a dangerous storm that can produce flooding rains and high winds especially nearer the coast. Hurricane force winds are possible.
In New York City it is even conceivable for flooding to develop from Canal Street on south to the Battery. Stay Tuned!

Hurricane Season Wundermap : Weather Underground
Hurricane Season Wundermap : Weather Underground
There is a debate on whether the storm heads for Montauk or more west right into NJ. It should be a strong storm( cat. 2 ) and I think the Friday morning forecast will have the track fairly well defined by then. My hunch is that it will come almost over NJ, near Delaware bay, then maybe to Queens, NY. That is my guess. I base this on the tendency seen in winter storms that show a path over the ocean early on, then bring the storm closer to land 2 / 3 days before the storm. But this is a hurricane.

New York/ New Jersey Metro, may be the target for Hurricane Irene this Sunday.
A concern is that one, usually reliable, model brings the storm into New Jersey near Delaware Bay. A better picture of the path will form by the Friday morning forecast time. stay tuned.

The storm will brush NJ on Sunday afternoon, in the 5 day weather forecast. Keep in mind that a 300 mile error can easily occur 5 days out. New Jersey marine interests should keep a watch on this storm. The very latest update has the storm making a direct hit on New York City. Much uncertainty about this weekend.
