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.

I like the concept of the "Cone of Uncertainty."

It's also known as the cone of "we don't really have a %$%$%$%$ing clue even with the gazillion dollars worth of instruments we have"

All last week it was gale force winds on the Cape as Bill passed out to sea--and the freaking leaves on my trees weren't even rustling when it did pass.

Hmmm...the CraftyCast on this one has been updated as of 1 AM EST...

Current indications are that Danny will develop into a Two Bottle Gale by Saturday afternoon across most of Southeastern New England.

Hurricane Expert Mike P is predicting landfall in the Cape Cod area, hitting the Sagamore Bridge dead on the nuts late Saturday afternoon...however, the Cone of Uncertainty includes a broad area from Joe Lyons house to the west over to Karl F's counter at the liquor store to the east, where pre-storm predictions call for a customer surge 4 to 6 feet deep...

Hey, I'm ready for it...got a new roof put on the house 2 weeks ago, a basement full of hootch, 2 spare D batteries and a can of Sterno...so I'm still all set from the hurricane preparedness drill for Hurricane Bill...

"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.

the "cone of uncertainty" prevails most deeply in the store, especially in the wine dept. ....
"which one should I choose?"...
i think that is the "cone's" residence..

party on... Hurricane Party, that is...

Danny remains in an area of upper-level confluent flow associated
with the persistent cyclonic shear axis seen in water vapor
imagery. In addition...both water vapor imagery and ssm/is total
precipitable water imagery suggest that the environment near Danny
is dry. These factors...combined with the current lack of
organization...suggests that strengthening will be slow at best
during the next 24 hr.


Nothing, TS at best

From Pro-Jo.com
Read the last two paragraphs... interesting after the incidents earlier this summer...

PROVIDENCE, R.I. -- It looks like we're in for a beautiful day Thursday. Enjoy it, since the weekend could be a washout, as the region could feel the impact of Tropical Storm Danny.

The temperature should reach a high near 78 degrees with a north wind of 9 mph. Thursday, according to the National Weather Service.

Wednesday night should be partly cloudy with a low of 55 degrees.

The state Emergency Management Agency warned Wednesday that Danny could bring heavy rain and coastal flooding to Rhode Island.

The weather service's National Hurricane Center reports that the center of Tropical Storm Danny has reformed about 575 miles south-southeast of Cape Hatteras, North Carolina, and the agency advises those living from the Carolinas to New England to monitor its progress.

It has maximum winds of 60 mph with stronger gusts and is moving northwest at 10 mph. Danny is expected to strengthen over the next couple of days and become a hurricane.

"The official forecast is shifted eastward because of the center reformation and the good track model agreement," the weather service says, adding that."any significant deviation to the west of the forecast track would bring Danny closer to the U.S. East Coast. "

As Danny makes its way up the Atlantic Coast, the Coast Guard is advising paddle and small craft owners to secure their vessels and gear. Adrift, unmanned paddle craft such as canoes and kayaks, are considered a sign of distress and could result in a false search and rescue alarm.

Mariners are also asked to secure mooring lines, life rings, life jackets and any other items that could break free and cause damage.

"We are headed for some rough weather this weekend," Al Johnson, First Coast Guard District recreational boating safety specialist, said in a prepared statement. "Securing your vessels prior to the storm could save your property and allow the Coast Guard to be more effective on the water."

For more weather and regular updates, see projo.com/weather.

NEWSFLASH
After an angry call to the Hurricane center from Gibb's Lures legal dept., the name of this storm will no longer be Danny, seeing as they have the exclusive rights to use that name.
Therefore this will be TS Flat Nosed Lipped Swimmer....
