POWERFUL NYC STORM EXPECTED
POWERFUL NYC STORM EXPECTED – Good evening everyone and welcome to a special storm discussion in regards to Sunday night into Tuesday morning’s powerful system.
High wind watches are now up from Monday around 1am until Tuesday 1am for winds 30-40mph sustained, and gusts 50-60mph. A coastal flood watch is also in effect from Monday 3pm until 10pm at night for the south shores of Long Island, and I would include Rockaway and Coney Island as well, for tidal departures 3.5-4.5ft above normal at times of high tide. This type of tidal departure will cause minor to moderate flooding in flood prone areas as well as minor flooding in areas that see flooding from time to time in more severe storms such as this.
POWERFUL STORM FORECAST WIND GUSTS MONDAY AFTERNOON
For the ocean, we also have storm warnings posted for inshore/near shore areas, for seas 13-18ft and wind gusts to 65-70mph at the peak of the storm.
A low pressure system will be gathering strength in the Tennessee Valley before moving across to Virginia/North Carolina to intensify further when it hits the ocean. A slow, prolonged fetch of winds off of the ocean, as well as heavy convection, will bring strong winds, heavy rain, and the prospect of coastal and urban flooding to our area.
Rain will begin tomorrow afternoon, becoming steadier and heavier as the night goes on, including increasing winds. Highs will reach 50 tomorrow, but it’ll feel much cooler than that. By midnight, things will really ramp up, with Rain, heavy at times, and windmill gust up to 60+ mph possible into late Monday night. On Tuesday, clouds and showers will linger until things finally pull out late in the evening. Highs in the mid 40’s both Monday and Tuesday. On Wednesday, things calm down and the sun returns, with highs near 50.
The time to prepare is now as far as protecting property for those in flood prone areas when Nor’Easters hit. The possibility of power outages is also a real threat, so make preparations to have backup power or means to stay warm overnight. I will update further tomorrow as we watch the exact genesis of this system.
POWERFUL NYC STORM EXPECTED – Satellite shows our powerful system taking shape, with low pressure heading out of the Tennessee Valley.
Radar is starting to show precip heading our way for Sunday afternoon. The radar will be very busy by late Sunday, with heavy rain and wind increasing.
