  1. how long did it last? I read back and it sounds like the hail lasted for 10 min and the storm itself went on for about half an hour?
  2. it isn't that cut and dry..... I remember it being mentioned here before...specifically with coastal storms that develop rapidly along the warm gulf stream waters and have convection associated with them, small hail can occur. Weak tornadoes can occur with such storms too. One winter storm that comes to mind that had small hail and even a waterspout just off the south shore was the late Jan 2011 storm at the beginning of its second phase.
  3. thats where I grew up, I wonder how big it got and how long it lasted?
  4. cant hail occur with winter storms too? I remember it being mentioned here before...specifically with coastal storms that develop rapidly along the warm gulf stream waters and have convection associated with them. Weak tornadoes can occur with such storms too.
  5. this is the second double rainbow in two days that I've missed out on
  6. Yes, and we might exceed that in early July if the offshore wind idea holds up....maybe get to 90 by Friday?
  7. I doubt JFK makes it far up its list....no 90 degree highs yet.
  8. are the higher maxes to our north this year because it's drier further north?
  9. this may be one type of set up where the south shore cashes in.
  10. China is a cesspool of pollution and corruption. I have good examples of how a government should work- like New Zealand, Norway, Finland, and a few others. What they all have in common is no dirty money in politics and swift responses to emergencies.
  11. Mammatocumulus in that first one, Don? And is that a scud cloud in the second one?
  12. it's about being scientifically literate. and it's the future, and although there is push back from the older generation, these changes are absolutely necessary. The history of humanity is that it is very late in making necessary changes and that has dire consequences. Either we make the changes or nature will make the changes for us, and her way will be MUCH harsher. On the positive side, the greatest reforms often happen after pandemics and other great tragedies like this....and this wont be any different.
  13. Walt can you see if you can get rainfall and hail reports from around the area, including the airports?
  14. well the rain party is now over...but no rainbow (yet) nice double you got there!
  15. wow small hail now even though the sky has brightened up some it's now pouring even harder
  16. finally getting decent rain here first since that June outburst in the first week
  17. I meant what Maine and SE Canada have already experienced.
  18. not missing much, it isn't raining here just constant lightning. I guess we aren't seeing that vivid sunset tonight.
  19. Getting some lightning here, it's a fun break to the monotony of our weather.
  20. scientifically illiterate people shouldn't be allowed to vote.
