  1. I think the old Modellab is done. They're shutting it down.
  2. I managed to avoid getting in an accident while surveying lol
  3. Was on the Cape this weekend - an impressive amount of tree damage along Rt 6 from Sandwich all the way to Truro. One thing I saw that was interesting was a stand of maybe 20 hardwood trees all snapped in half across from the transfer station in Truro.
  4. Son of Sandy! That was a great storm
  5. Yeah it's the vast majority of our market. I posted a map with our forecast too ane we had someone in New London County doing a localized forecast there from 4-630p. Not sure what else we can do.
  6. Yeah the Cape is pretty close to a lock. For most of us you'll need one of the deeper solutions to verify and get the low to tuck in pretty close to the coast I think. That may take some work.
  7. The NAM is quite a bit farther SE than the HRRR and Euro. I would imagine that would be close to NBD outside of the coast in SE NE.
  8. On a rad cooling night you could easily be at 36F at 2m but 32F on your windshield or blades of grass.
  9. Got my Epic pass in the mail today. Should ensure no snow this season.
  10. That's a separate issue (over warning for flooding... which we've done forever) than issuing a tropical storm warning for some 35 knot gusts or something.
  11. Because flooding is by far a much bigger threat. Besides a mention of some 40 mph gusts it's a waste of time to be honest. During the event we are quite inverted north of the warm front so those gust products seem overdone. As the storm pulls away there's a brief window for some 30-35 knot gusts but it doesn't look particularly impressive to me especially with a life-threatening flood event happening before. The Flash Flood Watch is enough for today.
  12. This has a lot of the hallmarks of a serious flood event. I'm pretty concerned for what unfolds tonight somewhere in CT/SE NY.
  13. It's all good. I'm pretty spoiled and travel a ton to cool places. I'll be back. I've always said that a hurricane is the only weather that will cut a trip short for me. Blizzards are a dime a dozen around here and tornadoes who knows until it's happening.
  14. That's actually not true. All the stations had continuous coverage that day. One of the reasons why stations will do this for tropical systems and snowstorms is that people will watch in large numbers (our ratings will be much higher for storm coverage than for what the typical programming is) and most people only watch for small chunks of time - so if you're on for 10 hours straight you provide a service for someone who may be interested in checking in every now and then.
  15. Hurricane hunter obs are not impressive.
  16. The GFS would be massive hydro problems in CT and W Mass.
  17. It is. I mean I would say anything that’s a top 5 outage in the last 50 years is historic and isaias was #3 on that list was a 50 mph TS.
  18. Yeah I mean rain soaked soil, potential for 60 gusts and our infrastructure does not look great.
