Tropical Rainstorm Could Bring Heavy Rain, Strong Winds To Region
A tropical rainstorm developing off the East Coast will put a damper on the region's second half of the weekend. The system is on track to arrive in this region during the day on Sunday, Oct. 23, with potentially heavy rainfall and damaging winds Sunday night into Monday morning, Oct. 24, according to the National Weather Service. “If the storm hugs the coast, it would push rain into the Philadelphia area Sunday morning and into New York City and Boston by Sunday afternoon," AccuWeather Senior Meteorologist Dean DeVore said. "But, if the storm develops to its full potential, it…

Storm System With 'Three-Prong Effect' Tracks Along East Coast
The East Coast is off to a wet and rainy October. A new storm system caused in part by Hurricane Ian continues to track along the East Coast, making for coastal flooding and even more rain, meteorologists say. The storm will have a "three-prong effect" including wind, enhanced rain, and flooding, AccuWeather says. Coastal and bayside communities such as Wildwood, NJ and Norfolk, VA could see between one and three feet of flooding, the outlet reports.

SpaceX Launch Baffles East Coast
What some first thought was a meteor making its way up the East Coast turned out to be Elon Musk's SpaceX. The Falcon 9 rocket sent Starlink satellites into low-Earth orbit from Space Launch Complex 40 (SLC-40) at Cape Canaveral Space Force Station in Florida just after 7:30 p.m., according to a news release. Footage of the rocket was captured about 30 minutes later in Washington DC, Maryland, New York, New Jersey, Massachusetts and New Hampshire.

Farmers' Almanac Releases Winter 2022-23 Predictions
While you were cooling off at the pool this week, the Farmers' Almanac released its predictions for Winter 2022-23. "A cold December and a very cold January might make readers in the Northeast shake and shiver," said the FA, who released its extended winter forecast on Wednesday, Aug. 3. Winter is expected to make an appearance much earlier this year than last, with December 2022 looking stormy — especially on the East Coast. The latter portion of January will be packed with snow in the east, followed by "what might be one of the coldest outbreaks of arctic air we have seen in several year…

Companies Selling Honey Tainted With Drugs Used To Fight Erectile Dysfunction: FDA
The US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) issued warning letters to four companies that allegedly illegally sold honey-based products that could contain drug ingredients found in erectile dysfunction medication. Testing by the FDA found that products being sold throughout the East Coast could pose a significant health risk to consumers due to the presence of drug ingredients that can be found in Cialis (tadalafil) and Viagra (sildenafil). Officials noted that those drugs are used to treat erectile dysfunction and are “restricted to use under the supervision of licensed health care professio…

Domination Of This Pollen Type Will Make End Of Allergy Season Particularly Bad: Forecasters
The warm weather may be here, but so is allergy season. A new report from AccuWeather says we're in store for a fairly average allergy season, save for the tail-end — thanks to weed pollen, the outlet says citing New Jersey's Climate Central. Allergy season can be broken down into three different blocks, AccuWeather meteorologist Alan Reppert explains. Kicking it all off are the trees, the "first and biggest" pollen producers. Grass pollen takes over in late spring and early summer, then weed pollen comes into play, capping off the allergy season. This year, the northeast can ex…

The eastern portion of Pennsylvania could get three to six inches inches, and flurries elsewhere. "All current evidence suggests that the storm will be close enough for at least a major New England snowstorm," AccuWeather Chief On-Air Meteorologist Bernie Rayno said. It all depends on one of two storm scenarios being tracked by meteorologists Friday into Saturday, according to AccuWeath…

Hurricane Larry Should Make Waves, Blow Some Wind, But That's Most Likely It, Forecasters Say
Hurricane Larry is making waves -- big ones -- as he spins his way up the Atlantic, but it's still highly doubtful he'll come close enough to do any serious damage to the East Coast, the National Weather Service repeated Monday. Doubling down on its predictions of the Labor Day weekend, the service said the worst we could see in our area are "significant swells" in the Atlantic. These will be "likely to cause life-threatening surf and rip current conditions," according to its latest report. Bermuda could take a hit, most likely on Thursday, but that wasn't a sure thing, forecasters said. …

AAA: Memorial Day Weekend Gas Prices Will Be Highest They've Been In Years
With millions of Americans set to hit the road for the Memorial Day holiday, prices are peaking at the pump.

A year earlier, the average price was $1.96 per gallon. According to AAA, the national average has stabilized following the Colonial Pip…

Ruthless But Reliable? Ransom Group Tied To Colonial Pipeline Hack Says They're Not Bad Guys
Darknet cyberhackers whose ransomware forced the shutdown of a 5,500-mile pipeline between New Jersey and Texas said Monday that they’re in it for the money and not to disrupt society. DarkSide, which popped up last summer, has presented itself as a band of online Robin Hoods who sell the tools to extort businesses and organizations to cyber-burglars and then donate a portion of their take to charitable organizations. It remained unclear exactly who targeted the Colonial Pipeline on Friday, jamming an estimate 2.5 million daily barrels of jet fuel, gasoline and other refined product deliver…
