  1. I think I am just going to go to the parking lot up the road. Going into downtown Springfield may be a bad idea, especially if there ends up being flooding.
  2. I asked my friend if he pulled up behind anyone and it wasn't him.
  3. While the parking garage would offer a sick view I'm wondering if maybe that may be a tad southwest from where the worst may go. There is a mini plaza just up the road which has a nice view west (got a sick shelf from there last year) but obviously horizon is limited with trees so might be hard to see any tornadoes or wall clouds.
  4. Going to head to the casino parking garage soon. Hopefully I don't get blown off the roof
  5. Pretty much full sun here too out ahead of this thing.
  6. Here is another video he sent me 9EF9B888-833D-49E3-91BA-01216C4DF67B.mov
  7. Friend just sent me a video on fb. If there is anything its rain wrapped but he did see rotation and it looks like a wall cloud. I'll have to figure out how to post the video to here EDIT: ehhh it's too tough to tell from the video really.
  8. My friend is chasing there. See if he reports anything
  9. Yeah this should materialize into a solid wind threat. I'm happy to see these storms really strengthen. I was worried a bit about some capping aloft, but this stuff is moving into a prime environment. Dews 73-75 will compensate quite a bit
  10. Definitely going to go to the casino garage rooftop I think. That should be a pretty sick viewing spot.
  11. We'll see what happens. There is a pretty stout cap around 500mb. Convection may have a tough time
  12. Casino is like 10 min away. I'm not sure if the rooftop is open though. Tried going there last summer and it was closed.
  13. Springfield (northeast side closer to Wilbraham). I'm also debating on looking to head east towards Brimfield or maybe Monson.
  14. That cell may head my way. I really wish I knew of some great viewing areas here that were elevated and looked west.
  15. I think that area is going to get nailed later. That's where I think you'll see a concentrated area of wind damage
  16. My one worry for CT is the better shear is lifting north of the state. The instability is certainly great and dynamics are still certainly good, but with the poor lapse rates I would like to see 0-6km shear more in the 40 knot range and bulk shear 40-45 knots. Those values are certainly enough for storm organization, but a bit more would help with stronger updrafts
  17. Saturday has crappy lapse rates but actually may hold a bit more potential then today. Shortwave doesn't seem to be de-amplifying like today and there are stronger height falls.
