Also, Not sure if you guys know about the ping project. Its very helpful and useful for NWS. I'm addicted to the app.

It will pick up your location automatically with the phone and then you simply report the precip falling. Download the app called mPing (from Oklahoma)

Here's the track. Coming from Bermuda area getting pulled into Northeast thanks to Upper Low (not seen on this map).

Current look at the 500mb heights. See that bulge downward over Midwest? That's the Upper atmosphere trying to close off a low pressure system at 20,000 feet. That will swing East and catch the coastal storm.
