  1. It’s close to something real interesting later this week. But alas may be a Tamarack deal.
  2. Monday and Tuesday look good. DSD Monday so should be 60+. All we need this time of year is offshore flow. Blues at 500 can be nice when that happens.
  3. I don’t have woods, but oaks all around. It still rips good on the roof and there is exposure. I was always curious with some of the gusts, but I’d have to center it on the roof and mount it. I have a tri pod given to me from gibbsfreeenergy.
  4. I still need to get the anemometer on roof with a wireless transmitter. Any good preview on those? 1.6” here but almost 3” in Randolph I saw.
  5. I think when it’s very windy from the NE, trees affect it. When it’s not windy and not too heavy I don’t see the discrepancy.
  6. I should. Just a gauge I got a Lowe’s lol. My Davis I think needs calibration, but I don’t understand why it undercatches so much when it’s windy or heavy rain. I mean I expect some issues, but sometimes it’s 60% of what my other gauge gets. It was good until last night and then deviated night time.
  7. I have almost 1.5” but the guy north of me has near 2” and he should have less then me. The fine drops and strong winds causing havoc. My Davis was doing fine until this morning. Big undercatch now.
  8. Interesting. I'll have to look next time we have another one. I hope it's not until November.
  9. I think it's just land/sea covergence with help of the terrain. I've only had like 1.1" Most of the rain is to my SW.
  10. Chris, has the NWS received new tools for wave heights and storm surge? I've noticed the BOX AFD reference guidance I never heard of. I think it's great to see several of these tools used to incorporate wave heights and surge guidance.
  11. I mean those three are as good as it comes to a forecast for wind gusts.
  12. I wonder if other things like isallobaric components etc. help explain winds on the Cape for certain events? Either that, or models (I know nam can do this) is sometimes too stable in the boundary layer.
  13. Wind is getting about as strong as it has been, but I think the NAM has been more or less correct with the idea of not bringing in 45-50kts this way. Even though it is howling just aloft based on TDWR.
  14. That's exactly where I was. Those two houses had work done after March 2018. I believe the one on the right is new...can see the pilings it is on. There was a house next to that contemporary looking structure on the left, but that was destroyed in March 2018.
