Thursday could be a big day
-
why can't we get this
-
The amount of wind we have had this spring has been absolutely annoying. It seems like every day is gusting 15-20+ mph.
-
The winds along the leading edge from yesterday in New Britain
-
In East Longmeadow. Nice light show
-
Pretty solid! Probably gusted 45-50…maybe towards 55
-
Come to your daddy

Went to New Britain. Got a nice view from walnut Hill Park. Shelf incoming soon
-
Actually debating headed to BDL But its about a 2 hour drive so would have to make the call by 4
-
Starting to debate on having to head south. Have a spot at Mt. Greylock. RRFS had been showing a good line coming through S VT but nothing has developed yet and not seeing much in the say of a CU field on satellite. Even wondering if CT might be solid with that NE PA stuff
-
It is getting HOT in the sun.
-
If we can keep the sfc wind direction more S/SE there may be some transient supercells involved. LCL heights are really high though.
-
Satellite is encouraging.v Just made it to the Bennington welcome center
-
I'll take the 3km please
-
Gotta say...the RRFS has been quite consistent in its evolution. It's really liked up around the Albany area
-
A bit of a change in plans. Going to go to Bennington, VT and start from there. There are some decent viewing spots. Secondary area (which would be only 30 minutes away) is Wigwam Western Summit in North Adams which looks like it has a tremendous view to the west. Really tough part about today is the mesoscale aspect of how this unfolds. The greatest potential seems to be well down into PA but given its a very late PM threat its probably not worth the 4+ hour drive.
-
Spoke too soon
-
Not bad out! No mosquitos either…so far. Usually get destroyed with them here
-
Oneonta is our target area for tomorrow!
-
Bring on the 75F dews

the post about the accounts of sun breaking out was about the 10/3/79 event...don't want to get that confused with the 7/10/89. But its not uncommon for our EML days to begin with clouds and showers/thunderstorms moving through followed by quick clearing (hell, probably the case too in the midwest). I remember 5/31/98 was like this. Cloudy with showers and thunderstorms until like 9 or 10 AM (maybe a bit earlier) then off to the races with full sun
-
I remember reading some accounts that the sun broke out maybe an hour or two prior to the cell moving north through the valley from Long Island and that may have been enough to rapidly destabilize things. There definitely had to be some localized horizontal vorticity in which the rapid destabilization was enough to tilt this more vertically and become ingested into the updraft.

ahhh right...the Oct 79 was left moving
