Good luck to ANYONE in the path of this mother. This thing is 700 miles across! Last reports were the winds had slowed from 150 to 125 (so you only get relocated 1 or 2 zipcodes vs another state!). Earlier today I saw a reporter who was onboard one of the weather " chaser" planes and it recorded winds of 205 nautical miles per hour (236mph) along the eyewall of the plane (which by the way is 100 miles wide by itself) and the operator of those sensors said that that was a new record for such recordings.

DP you better just go and get your wifes sister. There wont be no " ridin this one out" if they are within a couple of miles of shoreline. Shes crazy for waiting until the rush to try and get out. A storm this big and this time of year is likely to spawn tornados once inland as well. So its gonna be hell for alot of the populace. God knows New York City dont need another catastrophe.

Heres prayin for ALL of you fine folks and be careful!!!

ps
Notice that on that projection the storm doesnt loose much shape until appx western PA. []
