  1. a worthy followup to K&U... your detailed meteorologic memory has tremendous value, why not get some $ for it... you'd have enthusiastic demand just from this board alone (no pressure ... I know the return on writing books does not match the effort)
  2. Also very notable in Boston area ~7:35 Thought it was a helicopter with a back spotlight at first… and thought that’s the most UFO thing I’ve ever seen… nice capture! Apparently it was visible for much of east coast. Here’s a good video of it: https://youtu.be/lsERBqrnWqE
  3. Tall building is Trilogy building in Fenway:
  4. Yeah. Storm of the summer for Boston metro... have some nice CG photos, will post in a bit
  5. A legend is retiring… https://www.boston.com/news/media/2022/05/11/harvey-leonard-meteorologist-wcvb-retiring/
  6. After losing the first few hours to dry air and legit warm ground concerns, 1-2 inches would be a win! Elevation will also help in the metro area (e.g., Jerry's area should do better than coast). In any case, nice to see grass start to whiten. Looks like next batch of good returns is incoming on Tilt4->Tilt1
  7. Finally after stray mangled flakes or nothing for hours... < 1 mile visibility in Boston metro
  8. Incoming for our area, nice echoes just to our west
  9. We've struggled with dry air up to h7 for pike / Boston area, but looks to be saturating now and best snowfall of the day currently in Boston metro (still very light at best) Returns should fill, moving up from northeast CT should arrive in next hour
  10. Logan 8.5" at 719pm I'm still pleasantly surprised every time I see they report representative measurements
  11. Wow some of the best rates of the day and decent snowgrowth
  12. HRRR/RAP and King NAM suggest we could get another 1-2” after it turns to all snow thru tonight
  13. If look carefully on TBOS radar, can see OES echoes that Coastal was talking about moving westward under the heavier echoes moving eastward Getting better snowgrowth now (mixed with sleet) in past 20 min
  14. Similar here... I too never really had the quarter-size flakes that Coastal and ORH reported not too far away. Heavy this morning, but never good snowgrowth. I think you and I were just a hair north of the heaviest bands when those were reported and our best lift was below the DGZ.
  15. No big changes on Euro Looks like 8-12 along pike Sleet just makes it to Boston briefly ~2pm but after the damage has been done
  16. Chatter that cyberattacks are en route... SolarWinds last year was just a dry run 02z HRRR and RAP both looking healthy
  17. Guidance has been glacial: could see this SWFE a mile away, any guidance changes are incremental... And the best runs (at least for SNE) were yesterday and we've seen some attenuation since... if this was continuing to escalate, this place would be lit 02z RAP looks good
  18. I think it's been a tiresome leadup for not the most spectacular returns +/- our peak outcome on guidance was yesterday +/- people shook by Russia
  19. 0z RGEM a hair cooler in critical 12z-15z window, also a hair drier
  20. 3k NAM even drier I don't see a drying trend on other mesos
  21. Forget warm/cold... ~25% decrease in qpf across the board... weird NAM run
  22. The hint of a trend last night that I'm relieved to see reversed is a drier less amped system.
  23. The counterargument: 1) we have normalcy bias. We've already experienced the unimaginable the past 2 years, and this entire nation-state taking nation-state war was unthinkable for decades. 2) We are assuming these are transient jolts to our system. But Putin is now an irreversible rogue superpower head that we haven't had for decades. China taking Taiwan's chip makers will not be a short-lived shock. As you said, as long as China behaves.
