All Eyes On Hurricane Sandy

The latest model runs show Hurricane Sandy moving a little further east as it creeps towards the United States, which is great news for everyone heading into next week.

Here is what we call a spaghetti graph. It shows several different models and their predictions of Sandy's possible path. While some models have the hurricane hitting the east coast next week, many models now have the storm moving out to sea over the coming days.

The latest National Hurricane Center Forecast is still playing it safe. It has Sandy moving up the east coast over the weekend, which doesn't completely rule out a possible swing to the west.

Another model run we'll have to keep an eye on is the European model. It's been pretty consistent about Sandy making landfall on the east coast. In fact, the run from this afternoon has the storm hitting the Virginia coast sometime Monday morning. Since some of the models have changed their minds from this morning, we'll have to see if this model does the time.

If Sandy does stay west, it would act as a road block for any other weather systems trying to get through. That means whatever weather we see over the weekend could stick around a little bit longer. In this case we're talking about sunny and cool weather.
