Well ... we have our selves a real dicey situation up in eastern Long Island, RI and eastern/SE MA.




Taking readings off the spaghetti models from NHC - the bulk of the tracks for the path of the eye fall in the following distances from these locations:

NC - Outer Banks: 10 to 140 miles
NY - Tip of Long Island: 80 to 210 miles
MA - Nantucket Island: 10 to 130 miles

The eye has a radius of around 20 miles. The deep convection surrounding the eye has a radius of around 50 to 80 miles, quadrant dependent.

Everyone along the east coast needs to watch this.
