This image shows 4 days of power outage "causes" during the Nor'easter. The dots are the size of the outage. Not surprisingly, the top 3 causes were wind/tree/weather.

Ruidoso, New Mexico breathing a sigh of relief this morning, as the worst rainfall didn't hit there. They have seen so much terrible flooding in the past, and this was a big threat. However, there were dam breaches and water rescues elsewhere: www.accuweather.com/en/weather-n...

Evacuations underway as Southwest flooding threatens dam failure
Tropical moisture from Hurricane Polo and a pair of other weather systems are fueling dangerous flooding from the Southwest into the Plains, with more rounds of heavy rain expected through Friday.

This map shows the ranking of the height of the storm surge during last weekend's Nor'easter. Stations tagged in red have less than 35 years of data. Most impressive was Little Egg Inlet, New Jersey, which was only beaten by Hurricane Sandy. Sandy typically is #1-#3 for these stations.

A lot going on, on the weather map today. Big storm causing high winds & waves in Alaska, 3 hurricanes in the Pacific helping generate big waves on the west coast & 2 tropical storms in the Atlantic, Noreaster taking shape causing high winds & waves on th East Coast. Earthquakes, volcanoes...

So far, most of the heavy rain has been offshore, but that will not last. As much as a foot of rain will fall in Massachusetts and rain will extend all the way back into eastern Pennsylvania.

BREAKING: We are forecasting an AccuWeather StormMax(tm) of 55 inches of rain for Hawaii from #Nolo. We are seeing historic slow movement and extreme moisture levels. That would exceed #Lala's totals and could rank as the #2 wettest tropical cyclone on record. www.accuweather.com/en/hurricane...

Cat 5 Hurricane #Polo is just terrifying on 3D satellite.

At 892mb, Hurricane Polo is now the 2nd strongest storm ever in the East Pacific basin. At 180 mph, it is tied for 3rd place for the strongest winds in the East Pacific.

Waves (white #s) have been building all day, up to ~9.5 feet now off New Jersey / Long Island coast. A couple spots are reporting "storm surges" of over 2 feet now. This is the Squeeze Play before the Nor'easter.

WeatherMatrix @weathermatrix.bsky.social · 22/09/2026
This really is the "perfect storm" for Hawaii flooding -- extremely high atmospheric moisture, slow movement, and the usual upsloping. Our StormMax is 38 inches out of the gate but I wonder if this could challenge the all-time records for the state. #hiwx www.accuweather.com/en/videos/02...

WeatherMatrix @weathermatrix.bsky.social · 22/09/2026
The high wind gusts (>30 mph in blue) and waves (>5 ft in white) have ALREADY started. That's because this week's Nor'easter will come AFTER a squeeze play between the high pressure over Canada and the low/front off the east coast.

In the eastern North Pacific south of Mexico, Hurricane Polo has rapidly intensified from a tropical depression to a major hurricane in just over a day and continues to barrel toward category 5 strength.

#Polo! Looking good as a Cat 5 hurricane, before the sat went down. Marco! hasn't formed yet in the Atlantic, that's too bad for us punsters.
