I think that's actually a warm wake off the top of the convection, the center should be tucked just south of that pink tower. But convection is wrapping around the center which is good.
Honestly don't hate the 18z 3 km NAM wind gust forecast. Right look to the wind field, if not within a few knots of what I expect the gusts to be like.
Also chucks a few updraft helicity tracks for Ryan Tuesday evening.
The environment is actually pretty primed just behind this lifting area of showers and storms. Like if that stuff near POU can get going, that could be something to watch.
For an East Coast recurve, you want a good upstream jet streak, mid level ridging north of the cyclone, and a good low level theta-e ridge drawn north extending well NE of the center.
Model forecasts are pretty close to this conceptual model.
We had inquired with the techs about high temperatures last year and were told things were fine. But the overnight lows have definitely stood out the last couple of weeks. Unless they hit it between obs, PWM has been 80+ all night. That's not normal.
We're a top 5 warm July right now, I would definitely like to know things aren't just out of calibration. Kind of like when CON seemed to be running hot a couple years ago.
Was looking into PWM because overnight lows have seemed to be running high. And while that has definitely been the case in the last few weeks, what the hell happened in September 2019 with daytime temps?
I always seem to struggle at that course. I used always park my first tee shot into the backyards right, but now my hook really gets me into trouble all over the place. I think last time I played there I couldn't hold the greens. If you hit the middle it would roll off every time.
@tamarack any tips for trying to transplant it somewhere it'll do better? I feel like trying to save it is better than just ripping it out of the dripline of the house.
