  1. Getting some increases in flashes and the nice long, loud booms. So we definitely elevated with an inversion
  2. Yup...this has been brutal to watch unfold these last few summers. I guess this stuff is like winter wx...we can go a span of multiple years where we get clobbered and get a handful of them and we can go several year stretches without any.
  3. Hopefully we can get some EML setups this summer. but give me those or cold pool setups like 2008. but for now, at least looking forward to some good thunder and lightning
  4. more of a joke lol. Unless the storms become rooted surface based there will be minimal wind. Small hail is going to be the best bet within these. I would think you see some strengthening of this activity though with eastward progression. Might be one of those times SE CT does best
  5. I'm on the shoreline. I'm hoping for golf ball hail and 70 mph winds
  6. The steep lapse rates should help compensate for marine air a bit, but lapse rates are weakening (probably from latent heat release). Anyways, good elevated CAPE so should see decent elevated storms at least
  7. Also looks like that stuff in SE NY about to track along southern CT is becoming more sfc based so may see increasing risk for localized damaging wind gusts
  8. I wonder if we can pop one or two cells later this afternoon across southeastern NH. We aren't going to see much of anything this afternoon, but if a storm can pop it will have alot to work with.
  9. It seems to be right along a weak theta-e boundary and nose of stronger mlvl jet. Also have the pressure trough kicking east
  10. ehhh the only difference between now and later is elevated convection versus surfaced-based convection. It's a favorable environment for elevated convection and hail. The damaging wind gust threat with this stuff is lower. While it would be higher later on, it may not be that much higher because llvl shear is pretty weak. I don't think there is that much of a difference if this stuff held off a few hours later
  11. yup...was hoping maybe it would intensify but nada thus far. But it is a bit more promising southwest back into PA
  12. mesonet station measured 59 mph gust in NJ like an hour ago...not bad for this time of day
  13. That cell is going to go north of me booooooooooo maybe the Stamford one comes up
  14. In Branford...hope to get smacked by that stuff headed in. Nice hail core. Textbook elevated convection. Good MUCAPE and hail CAPE with steep lapse rates
  15. Yeah the big heat thus far has been just east of you
  16. Must be some issues ongoing at NCEP? Afternoon HRRRs and 18z NAMs not loading on cod or TT...although maybe its vendor related.
  17. Give it an hour or so and PHX will probably be warmer
  18. There are a few papers on this out there. Essentially, the RONI is the conventional Nino 3.4 index minus the SSTA averaged across the whole tropics to remove the global warming signal.
  19. Clearing your cache didn't work for you? This is the second time in like a month I had to do that. 2 or 3 weeks ago the NWS hazards page was stuck on old alerts. I thought it was just an NWS issue then 3 days later I just tried clearing and it worked.
  20. I cleared my cache and its working now. Stupid cache. Weird
  21. hmmm trying to access from BOX site. When I click on Climate and Past Weather I'm directed to this and then nothing loads on the bottom
  22. can anyone else not access the NOWData for Daily Climate Reports?
  23. I hope we get a massively record shattering heat and humidity dome where we get widespread high temperatures 105-110 and dewpoints 73-75. It all comes to and end when a strong trough comes through and we get CB's spiking 50,000-70,000 feet and some crazy interaction happens with space where solar storm debris get ingested into the storms and its the wildest lightning show on the planet. A derecho then rips across the region and takes out the power grid, beating next year's Carrington Event to the punch.
  24. Should see multiple rounds of storms tomorrow, though greatest potential perhaps Pike south? Decent mid-level lapse rates and bulk shear. llvl shear is meh but steep (low-level) lapse rates should help produce strong wind gusts and good MLCAPE/steep mid-level lapse rates should yield some hail potential in the stronger cores.
  25. I accidentally left the heat on in my car from this morning and when I turned it on this afternoon I roasted…but briefly. I switched it to AC
