FYI... ENX (and normally BOX) data is available in the pulldowns and a little toggling button at the bottom.  It's not as nice as radarscope obviously, but handy for reference and in comparison with the local data.  Also kind of nice to be able to use with standard google maps functionality underneath.

Awesome, thanks for the info!

Hail in New Britain per my brother...1/2'' too...wow

It won't be great, but you should see stuff tracking toward you fairly well.  Use the 2 degree scan because the 1 degree scan is pretty well blocked to the east by the Pelham hills.

This is pretty cool! 

When sun pokes out ahead of t'storms you know fun stiff is coming! 

lightning popping up in SW CT!!!!!!

Nah... that's just the seasonality of a warmer, somewhat theta-e richer air mass reflected in the sounding; that will look generically like that until October 3rd when we start heading on back the other way. 

You know it's funny - half kidding here ... but there's some truth to it - I look at soundings over Kansas, OK....IA and wonder why that whole region of the country doesn't just spontaneously detonate into a massive mushroom cloud as though an asteroid impacted on any given day in early June...  Nadda.  just streets of harmless CU sitting blithely over 6,000 SB CAPE... 

I think about this alot too  

Going to get active around here

I wouldn't classify the BOX AFD as full out weenie...just laid out the scenario.

To be fair, I am concerned about doors. However, the warmth will tickle i think.  Overall pretty good weather for riding around in your Jeep or your benzos...or on your Nissan sitting on Lorenzo’s.

Key is going to be the position of those below-average heights just southeast of Greenland. Well position and strength. As advertised, they might be just far enough northeast to spare us...although NNE would be at risk. Anyways though, this is a pretty solid look for what could be some active periods of severe weather across the Ohio Valley.

It's great scrolling through the CAPE map on the GFS and getting tickled by the yellow CAPE contours. It's coming!
