Yeah there were some frames which had some pretty low CC's but didn't appear to be quite low enough to classify as TDS. But some of those velocity scans were pretty impressive for around these parts.
I really wouldn't expect much in the way of wind today. Actually, if you're happening to experience a sudden bursts of strong winds there's a solid chance there could be a tornado nearby Any wind though is going to be tied into any very deep convective cores or with any brief tornadoes.
May have to closely watch that area for convection. Could be an opportunity for some initially discrete convection to develop within that and then it begins to fill in.
I think those epic solutions we were seeing are hinting at what the max totals will be but thankfully those totals should not be as widespread as advertised. All really going to come down to how progressive this can remain. LLJ is strengthening as we speak so we're going to see a greater flux of inflow too.
Actually some encouraging signals with this. Not sure if totally sold on that yet though. I'm a little worried this all slows to a crawl once it gets over Connecticut and then gets enhanced with the increasing LLJ.
Should see the LLJ strengthen over the next several hours. Going to enhance the heavy rain across much of Connecticut northward and should also locally enhance tornado potential.
Have to see what the NAM comes in with but it seems pretty difficult to not expect a widespread 3-4”. The rainfall rates are going to be insane with those PWATS and Convective elements.
There’s definitely going to be at least a narrow swath of significant totals tomorrow in the 6-8” range but it’s just a matter of how widespread that swath is and what are the highest totals. The degree of lift over the region aided by a pretty intense ulvl jet and llvl theta-e is going to be bad news.
