Greetings all!
Based on my analysis of the ECMWF, and GFS models, an area of lower pressure currently affecting the Florida panhandle area is forecast to emerge near the OBX and begin developing into a brief coastal storm, and moving NEWD and affecting the offshore areas, eventually moving into and affecting the Gulf of Maine. Based on the origin of the low, it would be considered a “Miller type A”. In fact, looking at the extended forecast, a series of lows supposedly make their way across the U.S., and splitting as they near the eastern U.S. and Canada, with new low centers developing over or near the Gulf of Maine. These lows could also set the stage for severe weather over various portions of the U.S. over the next week or two. The current forecast low is progged to strengthen to 28.91 in. over the Gulf of Maine by late Friday evening. Initially, surface winds near the coastal areas of the OBX could be 25 – 30 mph, with winds increasing offshore to gale force. Waves close to the coast could reach 6 – 10 ft, with waves reaching 18 – 20 ft offshore. Small craft should remain in port, and residents should not venture near the water. Areas affected by the onshore wind flow could experience coastal flooding due to the combination of wave action and precipitation.
