  1. I guess I should be good here. That golf course I looked at seems like a nice spot. Open to see good views and enough trees to see damage
  2. this will be a nice little drink for most. any drink is better than no drink.
  3. I think my friend has a rotating wall cloud!!! Hard to tell from the video to be 100% definitive
  4. Well the NAMNST or 3km NAM...whatever the hell it is continues to be gung ho on strengthening as it moves towards Springfield or even BDL. I don't know what the hell to do.
  5. My friend is in Charlestown. Microburst starting!!!!!!!!!!!!!
  6. I'm hoping that stuff southwest of Albany strengthens as it moves into Massachusetts. If not that is BS. Strong stuff to the north and then strong stuff well off to the southwest...stupid fooking split BS. Anyways I wonder if there is any wind damage going on. These storms have nice structures on radar but 2-6km lapse rates are actually not as tremendously steep so that may be holding back wind potential.
  7. If we're pinging hail today we're def seeing some legit supercells and mlvl mesos. Gonna have to watch for a TOR or two
  8. I was going to try to go north from Springfield but I don't want to drive far. I have a nail in my tire which I noticed last week. I'm getting it fixed Thursday but the leak is very slow. I put air in last week and the light finally came on today. I don't have an air gauge and I need a gas station that has the machine which tells what the PSI is at. There is a gold course near me though (Veterans something). But I'm afraid of a split.
  9. you should be good edit: misread time...may be quite close.
  10. sfc winds are backed within the CTRV so something to certainly watch given how strong the shear is.
  11. All seasons are the same length Spring = 3 months Summer = 3 months Fall = 3 months Winter - 3 months
  12. It is...which is a big head scratcher for me. Well actually (and this might be a dumb question) is the NAMNST and 3km the same thing? It shows a decent line today but nothing else does. That model always seems to poo-poo convective events (and not even just here) but today it looks solid.
  13. Absolutely agreed and great point regarding the cool overnights...they're tied into the low dews/strong radiational cooling. We have certainly seen some cooler airmasses (like a few weekends back) but for the most part these airmasses are very typical for this time of year (minus the dews). But this is a great post...you should copy/paste into the main thread
  14. Certainly no complaints with heating today. I mean when you look at the setup this is a pretty solid setup to produce numerous severe weather reports, however, the lapse rates and warmth of the mid-levels are so terrible they are pretty much offsetting everything else that favors a higher-end (in terms of severe weather reports) type event.
  15. Even when you know disappointment is coming...when the disappointment gets there it's still crap and it's still maddening. But when you walk through crap...keep walking.
  16. Greatest potential is certainly across southeast PA where the SPC has upgraded to Enhanced. There is a plume of steeper mid-level lapse rates there which will yield higher CAPE. Here though...meh. Here is sounding from OKX...lots of warm layers in there. I think we'll see some heavy downpours and thunder move through but going to be tough to get any severe and much lightning production.
  17. Was there no balloon launch out of ALB or is the data just not uploaded yet. This stupid helium shortage is ridiculous. HOW DOES THAT HAPPEN?
  18. May see a few rounds today. Don't think we'll see anything overly impressive. Storms really going to struggle to strengthen
  19. I really am pissed and disappointed. I feel like I live on garbage island where all you have to look forward to is garbage.
  20. This really isn't going to be anything to write home about but hopefully some thunder/lightning. Best part of this setup really is the very strong bulk shear. But the awful lapse rates and warm mid-levels really put a dent on potential. THIS WILL NOT BE WIDESPREAD
