When I posted, I thought of it this way, in a overall synoptic sense, you don't track a 990 mb or deeper sfc low across southern Ontario/Quebec this time of year, and *not* have something big happen convectively! What that is exactly is and where? Way too early, but all the main pieces are there, so that's the first step. Work from there. What is really cool now is that modelling and knowledge have come to the point we now can reasonably see high-end/record-setting events potential well in advance. The first time I really took l note of this was a couple days before the Oct 29-30, 2011 snowstorm. I noticed how cold the short-range ensembles were showing the 850 mb temps, and I said, "this is going to be epic/really bad," and look what happened. Then a year later, we saw what the ECMWF was doing w/ Sandy (even before the system was named Sandy!) 9 days out, and again, look what happened! Now we had advanced enough to see high-end svr convective potential days 4-8. From a wx passion standpoint, it's really cool to know such things in advance now. Growing up, I recall the uncertainty factor seemed always so high, and so many surprises (snowstorms over-performing was a biggie). And from a societal POV, us knowing ahead of time is a tremendous benefit so we can prepare for them and mitigate impacts.

Friday the whole thing got undercut by outflow. Then it regenerated east of the Apps. Speaking of the Mountains, got a Slight on Sunday. The mountains are always calling, but I'm not sure if that's for chasing, lol! I'm really interested in midweek. Verbatim it's a Midwest issue. We'll just see where outflow boundaries may lie. Winds aloft are forecast to be pretty strong for mid-June by mid-week, stronger than this current weekend.

Yeah this was perfect today. Low dews and warm. Felt like summer without being over-bearing. Finally a Grade-A Saturday outside. 80/50 at 6pm is a perfect evening.

I was really dreading our AirBnB with no ac in Newport. The front came through and we had some nice breeze Off Memphramagog that made for decent sleeping temps.
