  1. Yeah that's pretty impressive...don't usually see TT values that high around here. This is one of the more impressive cold pools I think I've seen.
  2. Holy crap...full out saturation to the tropopause. There are some signals for a line of snow squalls to organize within eastern NY and moves across Mass during the evening
  3. The wind direction probably netted perfectly for enhanced upslope from his roof.
  4. It better be 77 and sunny Saturday, April 16. I'm going to Bruins/Penguins...hopefully a playoff clinching game...although they could likely clinch before then.
  5. Very scary environment across SE Louisiana...yikes
  6. Maybe sensors are getting so smart they're just automatically adjusting to climate change
  7. I would wager this airmass has some legit legs. I know sometimes we get this late into the season and we'll see models very aggressive with such airmasses only to modify as we get closer, however, this one looks to come straight from the polar region. Not like these other airmasses (more Arctic) which come at us from central Canada and then traverse the upper-Midwest and sort of lose steam.
  8. Consider this the spring training of severe weather season. These early spring convective setups are good training tools for when real severe season arrives. A vigorous cold pool aloft characterized by temperatures as cold as -35°C to -36°C at the core is set to traverse southern New England during peak heating hours: This feature will be associated with mid-level lapse rates potentially exceeding 8 C/KM which should help aid in upwards of several hundred J/KG of SBCAPE, despite cool surface temperatures. Wind shear will be supportive of organized updrafts. While moisture availability will not be very abundant, the combination of very steep mid-level lapse rates, adequate wind shear, and modest instability should support the development of scattered-to-numerous showers by early afternoon. Given degree of cold air aloft and potential for some mid-level rotation, grauple or small hail will be likely with the stronger updrafts. Gusty winds are likely as well. Activity will rapidly diminish towards evening as the cold pool exists.
  9. Still looking good for convective grauple showers Saturday.
  10. Not sure how they got out of that alive. Were they chasers?
  11. Very nasty stuff down that way. Some of the videos just north of Austin are wild. That sucker was hauling
  12. Not every storm will be a blizzard but every blizzard will be a storm
  13. This is so sick! I can't wait until our severe weather season and we get to use this product. Pretty scary environment though down in LA late overnight and early tomorrow morning. Can't wait until we get to use this here!!!
  14. Elevated CAPE increasing. MUCAPE. That’s our focus…we were never getting any sfc based instability here
  15. Maybe they did but even a few days ago I checked around on desktop and couldn’t find anything. I see people posting graphics on Twitter but can’t seem to find it.
  16. Where the heck is Cameron Nixon’s hodograph map on COD? Is it only available on desktop version and not mobile? It’s available for NAM/RAP but I can’t see it on mobile
  17. Yeah any activity will certainly be elevated given the inversion. We do get a good surge of elevated instability this evening
