(5,179 posts)National Weather Service is predicting sunny and in the 40s for November 6th in and around NYC. Can't speak for the entire eastern seaboard, but I'd like to see A WORKING LINK before I start panicking. Thanks.

(25,485 posts)Another storm is exactly what the mid-Atlantic and Northeast coast dont need. But the European Centre Medium Range Forecast (EURO) model is forecasting exactly that this time next week.
The EURO, which sniffed out Sandy 8 days before it hit, shows an area of low pressure developing off the Georgia/South Carolina coast the night of the election (November 6), and then moving up the coast into New England by Wednesday night.
NOAAs Hydrometeorological Prediction Center leads its extended forecast discussion with the headline:
...NOREASTER POSSIBLE FOR MID-ATLANTIC/NEW ENGLAND STATES BY ELECTION DAY INTO NEXT THURSDAY...
The simulated storm - while much weaker than Sandy - shows moderate rains and gusty (not damaging) winds in the same areas hit so hard earlier this week. It also shows some potential for snow on the interior.
These conditions would obviously hamper clean-up efforts in areas afflicted by Sandys coastal flooding and raise the seas again, but to a much lesser degree.
The U.S. GFS model also simulates a storm in that time frame, but it stays far enough out to sea to mostly spare the mid-Atlantic before curving inland in southern New England.
Exact track details and, thus, the localized impacts of the storm are not possible to pin down at this range. But once again, the overall pattern shows the potential for a storm that would bring wind, rain, and inland snow to parts of the mid-Atlantic and/or Northeast.
