6 PM model runs shifted more west towards the coast. This has been a consistent trend over the past few days so the coast should be on alert.

People who live along the U.S. East Coast from North Carolina up to New England should monitor Tropical Storm Jose, forecasters say. The storm's winds won't get close to land until Sunday or Monday — but it's expected to become a hurricane on Friday.

As of Friday morning, Jose had maximum sustained winds of 70 mph. It was located about 360 miles northeast of the southeastern Bahamas islands, and moving west-northwest at nearly 9 mph, the National Hurricane Center says. The storm is expected to turn northward on Friday or Saturday.

No coastal watches or warnings are in effect for Jose, but the storm is expected to bring "high surf and life-threatening rip currents along portions of the U.S. East Coast," the hurricane center warns.

Tropical storm-force winds are extending up to 140 miles from Jose's center.

"Although the center of Jose is currently forecast to pass well east of the North Carolina coast early next week, tropical-storm- force winds are expected to extend well west of the center and could approach the North Carolina Outer Banks on Monday," the National Hurricane Center said. "Farther north along the U.S. east coast, it is too soon to determine if any other direct impacts from Jose will occur."

Much of the tri-state area, including New York City, Long Island, coastal Jersey and Connecticut, are in the so-called "cone of certainty" for Jose, the tropical storm currently meandering through the Atlantic Ocean, according to the latest advisory from the National Hurricane Center.

...

The National Weather Service says the heaviest rain is expected to be across Long Island and southern Connecticut Monday night through Tuesday night, though much could change depending on which track the system takes.

The National Hurricane Center says people from North Carolina to New England should monitor the progress of the system, which is expected to return to hurricane-strength later Friday. It's currently around 500 miles southwest of Bermuda and is expected to continue its northwest motion Friday, followed by a turn to the north-northwest late Saturday and then north Sunday.

Jose coming to finish Sandys job drowning the L train?

 

[sphagnum]

Guess I'll buy some water and gas today.

 

[BassForever]

Oh good as someone who was born in Florida and now lives in CT I was afraid I'd miss out on the hurricane fun times

Would be some shit if Jose fucks up all the "progress" the MTA has made to fix the L and R tunnels.

 

[Dead Prince]

i honestly can't wait for trump to talk about Jose on twitter.

 

[Tom Nook]

Yikes

 

[Litan]

Bad hombre.

 

[Netherscourge]

Oh, no. Keep your damn ass away from Jersey.

Ain't ready for another hurricane with Chris Christie still governor. He'll probably go vacation in Italy next week.

 

[HStallion]

"Another Jose coming to America to disrupt our way work force!"

 

[nded]

i honestly can't wait for trump to talk about Jose on twitter.

It's got a bad hombre name so it might register as something to be concerned about this time.

 

[Pandora012]

Hmmm if this does happen it will be my first NY hurricane. Always managed to be out of state when these things happen.

Back to square 1.

 

[OnionPowder]

No offense to everybody up north, but i'm so fucking glad this isn't going to hit Florida. We couldn't take another.

 

[Netherscourge]

Trump: "Here's one JOSE everyone wants to DEPORT! #MAGA!!!"

Sandy wasn't fun. Lots of rain and a pain to get around all the fallen trees/etc around my neighborhood.

 

[peteykirch]

Was at DIsney when Irma hit, now I come home, and can have Jose affect us in NJ.

 

[Captain Zyrain]

I was told Jose was just going to fuck around in the middle of now here!

 

[SkateorDi3]

Jose can fuck off

 

[User Name Here]

I was told Jose was just going to fuck around in the middle of now here!

He was at first, but then he sobered up and rembered what he was going to do.

 

[MrOogieBoogie]

Aren't there a couple other formations in the Atlantic atm?

[The Last Wizard]

Hopefully it’ll just be rain by time it hits nyc.

You know what, I'd give that tweet a like if he sent that out.

 

[FTF]

Ugh, stay out at sea Jose.

 

[Drain You]

Hopefully CT isn't too bad.

 

[kylecoley182]

I'm in Pa so I should be fine for now

The Euro has the eye a little further out east. I'm going to be paying attention, but I'm more inclined to believe the Euro on this. It seemed to be the most consistent with Irma.

 

[Strangelove77]

Disregard.

"THIS IS WHY WE NEED THE WALL"

 

[Caelus]

Just got an error code: guitar at the nightfall boss.
Now I have an oath breaker thing on my screen. I can't use guided games for 45 minutes.

I don't even...

Fuck.

Haha, this raised my spirits.

 

[BattleMonkey]

Guess I'll buy some water and gas today.

Only stock up on extra gas if that's the plan, lot of people ran out early and gassed up their vehicles before Irma in FL, then they were driving around for almost a week while gas supplies were depleted.

 

[Chaotic-Strike]

Aren't there a couple other formations in the Atlantic atm?

What is likely to become Tropical Storm Lee may be in the Bahamas some time next week according to the GFS and Euro models.

 

[psynergylover]

I blame New Jersey...

 

[Strike]

Some news outlet will probably use "No way, Jose." as a headline if it ends up making landfall.

 

[Clearos]

Looks like CT shoreline is in the crosshairs. Should be an interesting week.

 

[Technosteve]

at this rate my parents are going to have to move from the jersey shore

 

[Shadow Puppetry]

 

[Queen Vulpix]

I live in MA near the coast so I'll try and get some things this weekend just in case.

 

[Vincent Alexander]

This shit is too good.

Wanna avatar quote you so bad

Someday there'll be a hurricane called OBAMA HUSSEIN MUSLIN OSAMA.
