Danny Prediction Thread
OK all you amateur meteorologists... looks like we have a newly developed Tropical Storm- Danny. The early reports have this system hitting anywhere from the Carolinas to Canada. The possibility exists that a significant tropical storm or perhaps even a minimal hurricane could plow into Cape Cod by this weekend. Could this be another passing blow ala "Bill" or a complete miss or a dead-on bullseye hit? Whattaya all think? Will this be the storm that kicks the fall run into high gear or just weed everything up to unfishable conditions?
Let the predictions, the hype and the fun begin.  |

Danny'll be barely a one bottle gale...  |
"There is no royal road to this heavy surf-fishing. With all the appliances for comfort experience can suggest, there is a certain amount of hard work to be done and exposure to be bourne as a part of the price of success." From "Striped Bass," Scribner's Magazine, 1881.

Complete and utter mayhem...dog and cats living together, pluggers and eelers joining in a group hug, boatmen fishing the surf...

change all the maps.  |

I'm hoping it does nothing. It has the potential for me at least to completely ruin and an already abysmal season.

Striper fishermen all over New England will gather plovers and keep them warm under lightbulbs in cardboard boxes lined with newspaper...until the danger has passed and they can be returned to their exclusive grounds.

RIRock's prediction sure to go wrong...
Strong tropical storm. Below Hurr. strength
Highest gust in RI will be on the Block at 50kt. Highest sustained in SoCo will be 30-40kts.
Depending on the track MV or ACK will hit 60kt gusts.
Minor shoreline erosion, 2-3ft of storm surge for one tidal cycle. Erosion will be a bit more than if this was the first storm of the season, but not drastic.

Lessea - this should update the image from NOAA's NHC by refrehsing every few hours:
And the current path as of 4 PM Wednesday is attached so we can watch the changes. |

I dunno--the westernmost projected track would have it just brushing Hatteras. Hurricanes don't lose a lot of strength by just brushing the coast. It'll have plenty of time to regain strength over the Gulf Stream on its way up from there.
I can see the eye of this thing tracking right up the Canal. |

From my extensive past personal experiences with these storms I figure that I'll wind up good and screwed out of another productive weekend. Karl, why is your Wild Turkey pink on my 'puter?
