NEW YORK — Tropical Storm Henri, which become forecast to come to be a typhoon by Saturday, had the Northeast in its attractions because the direction of the typhoon has usually shifted closer to land.
A landfall along Long Island or southern New England Sunday morning or afternoon is now most in all likelihood, the National Hurricane Center stated Friday.
Threatening to bring unfavorable winds, as a whole lot as 10 inches of rain and up to five ft of storm surge, Henri can be the first full-size storm to make landfall in New England in years.
The storm sparked memories of Hurricane Bob, which made landfall 30 years ago on Cape Cod, knocking out energy and jogging water for days. Bob became the ultimate storm to hit Cape Cod and the Islands.
The effect of each storm is slightly special, and with Henri, typhoon surge will be a sizeable danger, said Da'Vel Johnson, a National Weather Service meteorologist in New York.
"Going into Sunday, the waves and the swell of the water will begin to upward push," he said
