Island is under some sort of warning, whether its a tropical Storm Warning or a hurricane warning. New York City is under a tropical Storm Warning. Nantucket is also under a tropical Storm Warning. We expect conditions to go downhill quickly after midnight, especially the closer we get to daybreak. Once we get to 2 00 in the afternoon, this thing comes ashore as either a strong tropical storm or a low End Category 1 hurricane. Notice the track here. This is with the 11 00 p. M. Update, so this is new. Theyve shifted the track a little bit to the east. It looks like instead of a direct hit on the eastern edge of long island, were now looking at possibly a direct Landfall Right on the border, right on the line of connecticut and rhode island. So thats an update here, with the 11 00 p. M. Update from the national hurricane center. Again, that will be a strong tropical storm or a low End Category 1. Once it makes landfall tomorrow afternoon, its going to meander across New England for 24 t
