  1. Amazing consistency of peak gusts across our ASOS/AWOSs. Everything between 28 and 35 knots.
  2. Not entirely shocked about Maine, but NH surprises me a bit. Goes to show you how fine a line it is between destablization and run of the mill boomers.
  3. The wind seems to largely be a dud so far, or at least pretty isolated.
  4. I'm very interested in the cells from Saratoga to Rutland. Especially the one near Rutland. Great shape to it and the ZDR/KDP separation angle is nearly perpendicular.
  5. Really interesting VAD wind hodograph from ENX. That sickle look in the lowest km is well known for tornadoes (indicates a sharp turning of winds in the low levels). Now this is using SCH as an approximation for surface winds, so caveats there. But if this is something close to reality a few TORs issued today seems reasonable.
  6. I think if forecast low level winds weren't quite as parallel to the boundary they would be considering it. Going to need some of these sections of the line to really bow out to have a QLCS tornado threat.
  7. Subtle, but quite a few METARs are showing backing winds ahead of the front. Hudson Valley looks pretty primed at the moment.
  8. Jumped on the wine wagon before I headed to Italy.
  9. Straining to hear thunder over the hum of the AC units.
  10. Could be a lot of reasons for this. Small sample size altering perception, more rigorous surveying, etc. As you say, I do think a lot of the rest of it can be explained by higher dewpoints and/or nocturnal temps.
  11. Especially SNE it looks like the cold front undercuts the convection. Gradually it seems the HRRR wants to keep shear/cold pool balanced up across NNE, and actually a little nastier across ME than previous forecasts. Still a little skeptical because of the clouds.
  12. We talked it over with SPC this morning and agreed that holding off on enhanced is the best decision right now. There are a lot of ingredients in place for damage™ but there is also a lot of low cloud cover and it's late in the season to mix that out quickly. RAP soundings have things mixing out by 15-16z which gives us another chance to take a look before the 1630z update.
  13. Bunch of PWSs reporting in that range. There was some narrow training convection earlier this afternoon that did it.
  14. I do worry that the heavy showers over GYX now can trace back to that stuff in MHT. That might be the weenie zone.
  15. It looks like mostly a standard soaker, but I am a little concerned that jet forcing is rather stationary aloft until late tomorrow night. Various models have hinted at that narrow band of really big QPF numbers, and I think that could be legit. Something on the equatorward side of the 500 mb jet.
  16. Gust to 70 mph and a TDS in the ALB area.
  17. Anyone on the lake that didn't get back in time might've had a wild ride. Good microburst signature a little while ago with 72 knots at 300 ft.
  18. It's a 50,000 BTU inverter system, with the latest Mitsubishi models inside. The outdoor unit is capable of heating down to -13 without back up and 100% efficient into the single digits. Honestly not that common locally anymore, maybe a handful of days get below 0 and 15 or so around 5.
  19. Not to mention a stalled boundary to the north near Tennessee.
