    I'd watch closely. It looks like there is some sort of boundary across Connecticut...south-central Connecticut

    Anyone think Costco's will be open tomorrow? Want to try and go chasing after work but I need to go to Costco

    Think its safe to toss the HRRR
  4. weatherwiz
    This could also scale back the upper end of heat potential Monday
  5. weatherwiz
    HRRR seems wonky with the dews...wonder if thats why?

    Connecticut (particularly along and southeast of 84) and Rhode Island should be prime today

    Not entirely shocked at the slight risk designation. We've had some worse setups get a slight risk designation That is a really well-defined s/w trough moving into the region with good height fields and increasing dynamics with cooling aloft. I would be shocked if storms aren't numerous tomorrow and evolve into multiple short-line segments or clusters

    maybe!

    the is one strong shortwave digging through tomorrow for early July. Convection (CONVECTION NOT SEVERE) should overperform. Thought maybe convergence could be a little meh but it doesn't seem bad. What we really need to watch are dews...if we can pool dews another 3-4F that would make things a bit more interesting for some localized severe weather.

    Yup…don’t see that too terribly often here. Cool to see

    Brother lives in new Britain and lighting hit something about 1/10th of a mile from his house

    Those storms exploded along the outflow

    Surprised at the 1” hail tag. Tough to get 1” hail in this setup. Poor lapse rates and very warm aloft. Would need a monster updraft to achieve that.

    And it gets warned

    Quite breezy out ahead of this

    Also looks like some dewpoint pooling ongoing with a theta-e ridge overhead. MLCAPE ~2000 not bad given the poor mid-level lapse rates. Any severe risk though should be extremely localized. DCAPE is meh with pretty poor 2-6km lapse rates and llvl shear is not much. So just going to be some torrential rain (poor drainage flooding risk) and maybe some good CGs

    It is! Seems to be evolving nicely. Satellite shows great upscale growth with cooling cloud tops. Might even be a weak sea breeze front which aids in development within south-central CT.
  19. weatherwiz
    Not saying we see much severe but we may see a pretty solid line of torrential rain and thunderstorms evolve right along the 84 corridor.

    short term trends looking favorable from about MA Pike into norther CT in a few hours

    Only limiting factors I see towards greater coverage are the "lower dewpoints" - 60's aren't bad but would like to see like 68-70+ and llvl convergence looks a little weak. Anyways, steep lapse rates aloft and good height falls so can't sleep on it
  22. weatherwiz
    Good call

    It's been a great gradual increase in warmth/humidity through the day. Working outside and I've really felt this increase in the last few hours. The sweat slowly develops and you can feel yourself starting to stick to the leather chair all so slowly...its like applying a fine strip of super glue to a broken piece of glass. My shorts are that glue

    Torched mid-levels suck.
  25. weatherwiz
    That is true But I think 2-6km lapse rates are a better metric to use when assessing damaging wind gusts potential versus the standard "low-level lapse rates" which I think are measured 0-3km?
