Ya.. I have been unable to find the rocket launch info

Saw it near Pittsburgh. I assume a rocket launch. It was drifting slowly north.

Who saw this?

I’m in Colorado for another hiking trip and was lucky enough to get a tour of the National Center for Atmospheric Research (NCAR) today in Boulder. And then this evening there was a climate talk at a local brewery. Cool stuff. Also wondering if any Penn State alums know this meteorologist. Kyle Nardi.

Credit to a poster at S2K for this. Note especially how strong 3 of them get (to MH strength): 18z hurricane models, in 126 hours (00z 8/18): HWRF: 955 mb, 104 kt, 21.7N 62.0W HMON: 954 mb, 103 kt, 22.2N 62.9W HAFS-A: 942 mb, 119 kt, 20.5N 65.6W HAFS-B: 972 mb, 78 kt, 21.1N 65.7W

Only 1983 did it.

Erin is rocketing along in the tropical Atlantic tonight, and despite a day of convective challenges the system is generating some deeper convection. As of now, Erin continues to tick south of forecast, and models think this south of due west motion will continue for a little longer. This is reflected in the subtle changes in the NHC track, which has ticked south over time. This shift that increased the odds that the Windward Islands, USVI, and PR receive indirect impacts, and depending on the extent and amplitude of the Atlantic ridge, it may have longer term consequences. Currently, the odds overwhelmingly favor Erin recurves before reaching the U.S. east coast. Using the Euro, I want to illustrate why. (sorry about the gif size lol) The models have been trending toward more of an Atlantic Canada risk, but of course we're far from knowing too much that far out.

Yeah. We have been noticing a lack of bats.

Looking at the BTV temps, that’s about as desert dry as you’ll see it in this part of the country. Dew points were in the 40s most of the afternoon. 98/47 and 17% RH around 4pm is really dry heat. Running sub-20% with dews as low as 45F today.

I still wanna know why the heck the moisture cutoff from Baltimore north during the winter has lasted this long. Like..."north and west of the city" and the usual snowing areas hasn't even been a thing! Something going on this long makes "random chance" difficult to accept. I swear it feels like something in the atmosphere changed because it’s been a literal wall, smh

Nah this is what he does. He is THE hype man of the forum and everybody loves it!

Looks like we are going to see some heavy rainfall tonight especially in the SW mountains. It's moving in now. More rainfall. This pattern is completely opposite from last year.

My brother said he was good in Hixson, because he lives on a hill top. But he said there was pretty deep water in the area around Middle Valley and 153, which are basically the two ways in and out for him.

It’ll happen when we least expect it! Yup. When it’s been this long without a strike people get snippy.

Nowhere near a 1,000 ft

New England weenies talk crazy in the tropical thread every year

I posted in the severe weather thread but all good here. 5.64” in my gauge in Apison. Looks like more to come tomorrow.

When Freak is French Kissing Kooky Kenny .. things are very , very disturbing

We got a good region wide soaker over here this evening after some downpours late this morning/early afternoon too.

U seem pretty sure of urself were all gonna get. A snowy winter..... I want what ur drinking... And I hope ur right lol

SLK with multiple days 90+ is wild too. Not sure which ob out there is more impressive. SLK and HIE have near 60-degree deltas from the 30s earlier in the month.

There's no guarantee of that. That's pure wishcasting on your part. There's a whole lot that goes into ssta.

Just busting your balls. What’s your elevation out there?

Surprised Philly vs Trenton differs by that much.
