I know it's big....but it's not that strong, is it? What category is it now?
It just seems a bit overboard....maybe. Are they more worried about flooding or wind damage?
(Admittedly, I haven't seen a lot of news on this since I'm doing hospital duties with my sister's baby again....but I come from a cyclone prone area and the hype just seems slightly overboard....from the stuff I've read)
Its a category 1 with up to 11ft storm surge expected! I hope its not that big but strangely I am watching 24hour coverage here on sky news Ireland! The world is watching! According to the news it could be a regular storm (fingers crossed) or because 3 storms are going to hit eachother it could be the worst storm ever. Lets hope it doesnt happen & is just precautions being taken!
Best of wishes & thoughts with everyone in the path!

Its a Cat1...but don't let that fool you. You are correct about the size. Where a normal Hurricane would come ashore & be gone in around 8hrs, this storm will be around for 36 or so. 36 hrs of tropical storm winds & rain & a constant pushing around of the surge water is a serious thing. I'd rather have a Cat3 storm hit my place than this one.

In Feb 2010 we had a cat 4 cyclone the size of Katrina hit 200km north of where I live. We copped about a medium Cat 2 but it lasted FOREVER. So fucking glad the eye of the cat 4 cyclone didn't hit our 200,000 pop town and instead hit a tiny coastal town. The winds lasted forever though....12-18 hours after it hit the winds were still blowing fucking hard. Flooding was nowhere near as bad as they predicted though.
Full moon high tide expected at the same time the hurricane hits land.
Sustained hurricane force winds for an extended period of time.
Lots of flooding and trees down.
I'm 35 miles north of NYC and its already blowing. I expect my power will go out later this evening.
I hate when that happens!! I had no power for nearly 4 days after that big cyclone I mentioned above....soooo fucked....hope you guys don't experience a power outage for THAT long.

Is Delaware going to be affected?
I had no power for three days when Irene blew through last year. It sucks, but no worries, I dont mind camping in my house for a few days.

CT state highways closing at 1pm today.
I'll be leaving work before then. Not getting stuck here, thats for sure!
Stay safe everyone. Fingers crossed we dont lose power for days. 5 days no power for Irene was a cake walk compared to what it'd be like now. Cold showers when its 90 outside is one thing. Cold showers when its 40-50 outside is no fun. I'll be workin on some nappy dreads come day 3

Are they predicting it to intensify as it hits the coast? Our cyclones always seem to do that.

PS (944mb & under would normally be seen in CAT4 storms)

Id say yes to Delaware. They are probably getting hammered with rain right now.

This should be less intense than Irene, but its going to last a lot longer!
That's what she said
