What are they expecting the winds to be when it makes landfall? Best I could find reading three differenr articles was turning into a Nor'Easter without indication of winds. From what I read it was so vague as to possibly make landfall with 30mph winds or 300mph winds (meaning they gave zero idea, not that 300mph winds would be possible.)

Seems the thing they're most hyping is the full moon and resultant flooding. I've always wondered how NYC would fare with a Category 3 or better storm. Obviously windows shattered and flying shrapnel would result in incredible death tolls, but I wonder how some of the older buildings would do. Not that this storm is going to do that - sounds like it'll either be us/DelMarVa or Mass. and Maine. Or simply out to sea. At least with the WS in SF on Sat-Mon and not returning to Detroit until Wednesday the impact there will be minimal to nada.
