We call them slopes.

Tropical Storm James incoming?

You could have gone for the Independence Day themed gif: Meanwhile there is a nice looking storm right where NY/Mass/ and Vermont come together.

Whoa is the board changing formatting as we watch?

Don't worry you can always add Alabama to a cone!

https://forecast.weather.gov/product.php?site=BTV&issuedby=BTV&product=AFD&format=CI&version=1&glossary=1 NEAR TERM /THROUGH THURSDAY/... As of 1045 AM EDT Wednesday...Overall forecast for today remains on track with the potential for strong to severe storms persisting. Despite SPC pushing the slight and enhanced risk a little bit northward, looking at current satellite trends still feel the best potential for severe will be from southern Essex County NY northeast through VT Washington, Caledonia, and southern Essex Counties southward, and especially across Rutland/Windsor Counties where the greatest surface heating and instability will be found. Current mesoscale analysis shows what the previous forecaster mentioned in regard to deep layer shear with the strongest values >40kts at 0-6km north of the surface boundary draped along and just south of the international border, and 30-40kts southward. While not lining up as much as we`d like to see a more widespread convective threat, it still should be enough to support some organization of cells this afternoon with the primary threat continuing to be damaging winds and heavy rainfall.

looks like things are firing in NYS

So is there damage in Tolland? Is the power out because I am sure Eversource will be right on that. Congrats on the light show and the good drink!

Yesterday I couldn't have the windows open at the office because it was too warm, today it is too cold.

Closest station to us ended up with 1.4 between rounds 1 and 2. A huge drink for our gardens and no water in the basement- double win! Now I just hope the Sharon town road crew got the trees off the road.

.79 at the closest station. https://www.wunderground.com/dashboard/pws/KVTNORWI10

Home got hammered, lots of needed rain. I had to drive under one tree which had fallen on our road but had one end snagged up enough for me to get under. I had to go around 2 others. Round 2 looks to be an hour and half away.

Some good lightning just to the south of downtown Burlington

Some thunder rumbling here in Burlington but nothing really memorable so far.

Very windy here too!

Nice downpour just came through here in Burlington.

91/67 at KLEB Severe Thunderstorm watch up here: from the BTV AFD: https://forecast.weather.gov/product.php?site=BTV&issuedby=BTV&product=AFD&format=CI&version=1&glossary=1 .NEAR TERM /THROUGH TUESDAY/... As of 1100 AM EDT Monday...Bottom line it will be an active day with strong to severe storms expected this afternoon. Early morning convection exiting the area as expected and satellite imagery shows plenty of clearing to allow for highs in the mid 80s to lower 90s. Dew points already well into the 60s and this will lead to CAPE values this afternoon in the 1500-2500 J/kg range. Sufficient deep layer shear is already established over the area and will only get stronger as the day progresses. Expecting convection to develop along pre-frontal trough in the vicinity of the Saint Lawrence Valley and western portions of the northern Adirondacks of New York. Storms will quickly become organized and move into more favorable instability to push storms into the strong to severe category. With unidirectional shear looking at wind damage as the main threat, but with all the instability could see some isolated storms forming and producing large hail. Frequent lightning and heavy downpours will also accompany the storms as they move east into the Champlain Valley and the remainder of Vermont.

Some very cool clouds in Eastern Texas at the moment" https://weather.cod.edu/satrad/?parms=local-NE_Texas-02-12-1-100-1&checked=map&colorbar=undefined

90/61 at KLEB https://w1.weather.gov/data/obhistory/KLEB.html It even says 90 here at the house but it could be the sun is starting to hit the sensor. The two closest stations to me say 88 and 87. https://www.wunderground.com/dashboard/pws/KVTNORWI10

Looks like a line of storms getting together in central Mass down towards Tolland land.

In BTV, we are currently at 293/285.
