NWS here calling for 6-12".Think that will have to go higher.Most news stations are calling for 12-18".

Im more worried about the coastal flood and stronG winds with this storm.flood could become moderate to sever with astronomical high tides,and very strong  onshore winds.

This storm "could",repeat "could"be a very historic storm!!Pressure will drop down to the low 970,high 960!!
