Latest plots on Irene she maybe saying hello to NY,NY or NJ....
PLOTS Latest Model runs




should i be worried, or not?..becuase that link shows a couple model runs pointing my way.

if you were on hatteras maybe.. but being up in long island you should know better. an amplified ridge off the east coast is needed to get a strong storm up to long island without it recurving sharply.. and the ridge is progged to be solid but fairly flat. in other words to get you it would have to travel over land and weaken a whole lot. i wouldn't worry about a significant storm up there unless the models start showing something very different than what they're showing. -HF
