Poised to push right through d. C. , during the next hour or so. So a messy evening commute down that way. This batch of rain is going to lift to the north.

It will me ander toward bohamas. There are ocean water temperatures down here in the mid 80s. Definitely enough warmth for this storm to continue to strengthen. National Hurricane Center does expect it will be a category one before it makes pretty much a sharp north turn and that is thanks to the deep trough coming through tonight, cold front with the low pressure that will pick this storm up and kick it out into the the open atlantic. The problem is there ace chance once we get to this position on sunday afternoon there is a chance this could recur and head up toward new england but just a good a chance this stays off shore. Either way that doesnt matter for our purposes at the moment. What does matter is what happens to some of the moisture transport with this storm as we get in the weekend. Heres the factors. We have joaquin. Trap keeps it out to sea for right now but this front that is coming through tonight will stall overhead and even though storm stays off shore moisture gets pulled in and new developing low forming along this boundary and just rotates through the entire midatlantic and north east friday into saturday producing prolonged, heavy rainfall, prolong on shore flow as well as leading to coastal impacts, heavy rain definitely biggest risk up and down easterne game.
