So, my weather nerds, I read some unsettling news just now. WTF! Is this a load of poop and just sensationalism?

QUOTE
A swirl of thunderstorms in the Caribbean, which is a notorious breeding ground for October hurricanes, is expected to coalesce into Tropical Storm Sandy and possibly intensify to hurricane strength as it moves toward Jamaica, eastern Cuba, and the Bahamas by Wednesday and Thursday. But it's what could happen after that that has some weather forecasters pondering some rather bizarre scenarios — think if a hurricane and nor'easter mated, possibly spawning a very rare and powerful hybrid storm, slamming into the Boston-to-Washington corridor early next week, with rain, snow, damaging winds, and potential storm surge flooding.

Several computer model runs have shown a slingshot scenario, in which Tropical Storm (or hurricane) Sandy initially moves out to sea east of North Carolina, but is captured by the jet stream and flung northwestward into the Mid-Atlantic or Northeast.

The real question is, would we get a Nor'icane, or a Hurr-easter? I think that it depends on which is the male and which is the female. Given that a well-formed hurricane can look like a giant vag, I'm going with Nor'icane.

Besides - Hurr-easter sounds like a developmentally challenged holy day.

nah, that fire is just like when they burn jungles in the Yucatan. The next year, it's all new hotels and resorts. This just means 60 year old Big Tex gets an upgrade. Sure, it's sad in the moment but the new super bionic Tex should seriously kick ass. Maybe even mount a strap to one of his hands so he can clap sooner fans to death if they get ejected from the game... Or rig one giant leg to kick the same okie fuckers out into the parking lot... It will be great.

In a short answer, no not over sensationalism. Quite a few of the top models are predicting this scenario. Latest runs are a bit more in agreement. Should be really interesting to see what happens. Reminds me of the 1991 Halloween storm AKA the Perfect storm. Of course we're talking about a week out so a lot can change.





edit: wrong year, derp.

Winter Storm Names of 2012 listed below. The first time the weather service is naming snow storms. Some of their name origins, and their reasons for naming winter storms, can't avoid the mass-presence-of-popculture-geeks smell test that a network called The Weather Channel couldn't possibly fail. Q? Orko? Khan?? Nice try, weather nerds, nice try.

National Weather Service is not the one naming the storms, it's The Weather Channel that's doing this. While I'm fine with big winter storms getting names, I'm not OK with a tv station giving a name. As we've seen before all sorts of names are given to a single storm from different news/media outlets. It should be left up to the National Weather Service to name these storms, not a tv station.

QUOTE
WASHINGTON (AP) — An unusual nasty mix of a hurricane and a winter storm that forecasters are now calling "Frankenstorm" is likely to blast most of the East Coast next week, focusing the worst of its weather mayhem around New York City and New Jersey.

Government forecasters on Thursday upped the odds of a major weather mess, now saying there's a 90 percent chance that the East will get steady gale-force winds, heavy rain, flooding and maybe snow starting Sunday and stretching past Halloween on Wednesday.

QUOTE
The New York area could see around 5 inches of rain during the storm, while there could be snow southwest of where it comes inland, Cisco said. That could mean snow in eastern Ohio, southwestern Pennsylvania, western Virginia, and the Shenandoah Mountains, he said.

Both private and federal meteorologists are calling this a storm that will likely go down in the history books.

"We don't have many modern precedents for what the models are suggesting," Cisco said.

A bad thing about snow with this storm is that it's going to be a wet snow with big heavy flakes because it's so early in the season. No powder. And with the leaves still on the trees, this is going to bring down power lines big time!

No, I say to keep watching the weather reports, and hope that the worst doesn't happen.

A bad thing about snow with this storm is that it's going to be a wet snow with big heavy flakes because it's so early in the season. No powder. And with the leaves still on the trees, this is going to bring down power lines big time!


Had that happen here in PA last year. It was SCARY. I live in a mountain house community and it was like a horror movie. You'd hear a tree go down every 5 minutes wondering if this is the one that'll hit the house. We got lucky. Had one miss a storage shed by 18 inches, another miss a car by 6 feet.

Other families were not as lucky though.

Forecast is mostly calling for rain though no?

5 inches of rain plus high winds means trees will be falling too.

Too late, I just looked at some reports talking about heavy winds and rain Sunday regardless of when it actually hits. Let's see what I can get...

National Weather Service is not the one naming the storms, it's The Weather Channel that's doing this. While I'm fine with big winter storms getting names, I'm not OK with a tv station giving a name. As we've seen before all sorts of names are given to a single storm from different news/media outlets. It should be left up to the National Weather Service to name these storms, not a tv station.

Yes, the story and the image are from The Weather Channel site.

#firstworldproblems It cannot possibly hit as bad up here as it has in the Caribbean. At least you guys have flood insurance.
