- Rain max (8") and snow (12") from most sources too low. If Sandy hangs around, there could be locally 20" rain, 5' snow.

Sounds like NWS won't be issuing Hurricane advisories for the NE Coast. If this is true, it's not a great idea. Mariners will get it but coastal residents may not, and Hurricane advisories trigger some evacs & EMA decisions. http://t.co/MNbAbbxdWeatherMatrix shared Scott Sabol Fan Page's photo.
If I'm not mistaken, this is showing 66-foot waves from Hurricane Sandy offshore, with 30 foot waves on the CT/RI coast. WaveWatchIII shows similar coast but "only" 50 foot waves off shore. Let's hope this model is out to lunch.WeatherMatrix shared Capital Weather Gang's photo.
- The 12Z GFS model says that Hurricane Sandy will tie the all-time lowest pressure record in the Northeast U.S.! http://ow.ly/eNXth
- Wave model predicting waves higher than 42 feet offshore, with over 20 feet very near most of the Northeast coast.

A few final thoughts on what may be the strongest storm that the Northeast has seen in recorded history. PLUS: Sandy is progged to beat (by far) the 1993 Superstorm & Perfect Storm 1993.- The weather hasn't "scared" me for a long time, but what I'm seeing tonight on the forecast models, and the seriousness with which I'm seeing famous meteorologists discuss next week's historic storm, has gotten me a little worried. If you live in any STATE on the East Coast, it's time to think about preparing for next week's storm because the track is not certain but the potential devastation seems to be. Tomorrow in my blog I'll be talking about worst-case scenarios and what you need to be prepared for. Some simple steps can keep next week from being a nightmare for you and your family.

Awesome pic of close-up lightning with a leader from the pole at right. Very rare to get a leader in the pic.- Greek Island waterspouts earlier this week.

Some good model discussion from my meteorological cohort Joe Lundberg.- Via Chris Novy, from the Oklahoma Mesonet: Temps currently range from 36 in Western Oklahoma to 76 in the eastern part of the state.

Just got out of an EMERGENCY morning map discussion at AccuWeather. New Hurricane Sandy track map is up at http://hurricane.accuweather.com/ We are going with a Cat 1 Hurricane off the tip of Long Island Tuesday morning.- My favorite part is when you see a power flash as it overcomes the transformer!
- RT @EverythingWeather: Clouds associated with Hurricane #Sandy cover an enormous area more than 1,500 miles from near S. America to near Bermuda

Only one Cat 3-5 hurricane has come close to the NE US coast since 1900. More historical perspective on my blog today.- The GFDL model (a model made for hurricane tracking, but IMHO not very reliable) shows a 932 MB (Cat 4) hurricane making landfall in Delaware! http://ow.ly/eJmiu
- RE: (Hurricane) Sandy: No Oct./Nov./Dec. Hurricane (even after weakening) has made landfall in the Northeast U.S. since 1900. http://www.csc.noaa.gov/hurricanes

Great discussion on the models & ensembles for (Hurricane) Sandy.WeatherMatrix shared a link.
Seems like a lot of tropical storms this year but actually we're 1 shy of 2010 & 2011; 19 ties 5 yrs for #3. http://ow.ly/eHiuT- Wave model from Tropical Storm (probably then Hurricane) Sandy
- This Euro model prediction from last night shows a Cat 3 Hurricane making landfall on the New Jersey coast and predicts up to 40 inches of snow in Pennsylvania! Before you discount it, Hurricane Wilma came up the coast in 2005 and helped bring 30 inches of snow to New England: http://ow.ly/eFLAY

Another (possible) reason for the Halloween superstorm... I'll be blogging more about this later this morning.- If this makes you (northeasteners) warmer, it was 98.2F today at Magnum, Oklahoma http://ow.ly/eEjE6
- Before you scoff at this,1.) This ain't the GFS, it's the EURO model, only out 10 days. 2.) What this probably confirms is a big pattern change will be in place by Halloween, delivering MUCH colder weather and snow to many places in the northern states.
