  1. Here’s some obs. BTV had 52kt sustained and CON 54kt sustained. https://mesonet.agron.iastate.edu/cgi-bin/request/asos.py?network=CT_ASOS&station=BDL&station=HFD&station=HVN&station=BTV&station=BDR&station=CON&station=EWR&station=ALB&station=BOS&station=EWR&station=PSM&data=metar&year1=1950&month1=11&day1=25&year2=1950&month2=11&day2=27&tz=Etc%2FUTC&format=onlycomma&latlon=no&elev=no&missing=M&trace=T&direct=no&report_type=3&report_type=4
  2. The Great Appalachian storm https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Great_Appalachian_Storm_of_1950 We were in the warm sector. That was a LLJ on roids…east flow and we were pulling near hurricane force sustained. Then the cold front went through from the south toward midnight…we had CAA from southerly flow, but the wind diminished behind the cold front. There was a point the next morning where it was snowing at BDR and raining at BDL.
  3. CON 110mph EWR 108 HFD 100 NYC 94 BDR 88 ALB 83 HVN 77 https://journals.ametsoc.org/view/journals/mwre/78/11/1520-0493_1950_078_0204_tdson_2_0_co_2.pdf
  4. Yup. Those are from last year that I picked up from a grower in Mass.
  5. Classic tblizz. Already in midseason form unlike our slacker football team that won’t play in the preseason. Don’t ever change.
  6. I bust his balls, but wind is definitely the most difficult common weather variable for home weather stations to get sited accurately. Most people have trees or can’t get the anny on the roof. I’m sure 10mph on his deck surrounded by oaks probably translates to 30-40mph. Maybe we can get a bumper crop of lantern flies and gypsies next year to take his oaks down.
  7. I’m disappointed to see Kevin’s station still online this morning. Inversions are a biatch.
  8. When I said “weenie” Wellfleet site I didn’t mean it was wrong or incorrectly sited. Just that it’s in a perfect elevated spot to maximize wind. They’re the peak wind in a lot of events. The one on Block Island is on a bluff too (Mohegan Bluffs) but I’m not aware of any elevation there near 150ft. Maybe there is and I’ll eat my hat.
  9. NE downslope in effect. RH has dropped from about 95% to 49% in a couple hours.
  10. This 2nd pulse tonight was definitely more LI/CT focused on the euro as the low backs westward.
  11. Yeah those are the chestnuts. These are pawpaws..
  12. Temp just shot up to the high for the day and the wind is roaring through the tree tops. 64°
  13. We’re not really in line for wind up here. It was breezy this morning, but once the showers moved in the temp wetbulbed down, we got inverted, and lost the little mixing we had.
  14. Yeah the euro has been pretty consistent with that 60-70kt window around 6z at 925…I can’t see 950 without point-clicking soundings and trying to interpret overlapping barbs, but it looks like 50-55kt around that time.
  15. First burr fell. None of the nuts were fertilized (as expected)
  16. NE MA choking on Scoot’s exhaust all morning. This would’ve been entertaining in winter.
  17. That weenie Wellfleet anny had 70 earlier and it’s at 100ft. The New Shoreham is 144ft on the shore. So if it’s accurate it isn’t exactly representative of the 10m wind. The wind data at least looks consistent. https://www.weather.gov/wrh/timeseries?site=F8194&hours=72
  18. It may be legit. It’s an elevated anemomter on the SE shore.
