  1. Not surprised at this...had been some decent signals for this dating back to last week.
  2. That's exactly what I was thinking when they told me actually
  3. Got mine at Waterbury Health Center. Process really couldn't have been easier. As soon as I neared the parking garage there was signs directing where to park and signs within the parking garage of where to park. Then they had signs leading into the facility and it was all set up for perfect social distancing. Walked right in, gave them my license, then they directed me where to go. It was a pretty large clinic with at least 15-20 vaccine stations. Waited maybe one minute then they told me which station to go to, they reviewed information and asked a few questions then boom...shot done. Didn't even feel a thing. Went to the next station where they scheduled the second shot and then went into the observation room for 15-minutes and was on my merry way. Biggest stressor was nearly running out of gas...forgot to get gas the other day and while I had enough to get from Windsor Locks to Waterbury, I certainly didn't have enough to get back home...or very far. Made it to a gas station with 7 or 8 miles on the range
  4. Just got my first dose of Pfizer!!! Second dose scheduled for April 27
  5. Might see potential for a few strong tornadoes again later in the week across MS/AL...they can't catch a break
  6. there was a quite a bit of sun in Branford earlier but cloudy now and freaking cold
  7. That continues to be one heck of a NAO block that develops moving through the upcoming week with AO tanking too. Probably see a snow threat for the interior at some point.
  8. yeah I start it just before heading into the shower. for the most part the car is still running when I get into it. I think it shuts off after like 20-minutes.
  9. YES!!!!! Got an appointment for my first shot Tuesday. The Pfizer one too.
  10. I am so sick of this cold. But back in like early February (or JUST before that horrific cold snap we had) I got an automatic car starter put in...INCREDIBLE! I start my car before I get into the shower so when I am ready to leave...all I have to do is endure cold for like 8 seconds and my car is super toasty when I get in.
  11. No problem! Thanks for pointing that out. That would be pretty sick! I'm sure something like that must exist. If I knew how to code I'd probably create it myself if it didn't enough to vastly increase the PWATS
  12. brutal was supposed to say I'm not liking the pattern
  13. I'm liking the pattern moving through this month. I guess just typical New England spring weather with a mixture of really crap days and some super nice days mixed in but I am dying for consistency. Want it to get super nice so I can go on walk's daily but it has to be like 60+
  14. I had a dream last night that when I checked the GFS it was showing over 5,000 CAPE here towards the end of the run and so I checked this morning and it has nothing
  15. We are two weeks away before the 384-HR GFS officially gets into severe weather season!!!!!!!!!
  16. screw it...time to just throw up a thread and work back from depression and hope things turn better moving into the summer. Pretty good signal for a low-topped squall line to push across southern New England during the early evening. Not much in the way of instability to work with but very strong forcing and jet dynamics. Should see some damaging wind gusts as this line works through nvection
  17. Well we are getting a fropa...not expecting a big snow event or accumulating snow. but I do think many have potential to end as a burst of snow and maybe someone up north accumulates some. Could actually make a small argument for some decent snows across northern Maine.
  18. The signal for some significant cold is pretty big. I don't know off hand what records are like but I would imagine some record low highs could be in jeopardy across some spots Friday.
  19. That is one pretty damn cold airmass behind that front Thursday and it looks almost anafrontal like. Certainly could see many end as some snow when all said and done. Maybe some room for some type of accumulation well up north Nice jet structure too
  20. EWR is 83...40 mph and gusting to 54...holy crap. They're mixing up to like 795mb
  21. no it was a different website. was www.tornadohistoryproject.com I did come across this site and thought perhaps it was an updated site but looks like this one has been around a bit longer.
  22. Does anyone know why tornadohistoryproject.com is no longer valid. I'm guessing maybe funding? It was an amazing website...incredibly user friendly. Is there anything similar out there to easily access yearly tornado data and break down by month, day, year, state, rating? Such a shame that website is just....gone
  23. That is something to really monitor and keep in mind, especially if we end up with a big warmup early. Something like this just seems to becoming a new norm. There are so many things this could impact such as weaker inversions and greater low-level instability. Despite the fact they're a bit below-average just off the Southeast coast, that should change quickly over the next week with that ridge becoming established. A huge issue too should we get something tropical coming up the coast. We really got pretty lucky with Isaias last year because had it not made that second landfall I think we would have been screwed.
  24. Had dewpoints been 5-7F higher 5/15/2018 we probably would have had a couple EF3+ rip across the state
  25. Hopefully we can get strong enough mixing Wednesday and Thursday but a sneak look at some soundings shows there may be a bit of an inversion between like 850 and 925 which could prevent deeper mixing. Friday would probably offer best shot at mixing ahead of cold front but also more in the way of clouds. May also have a quite a bit of high-level clouds Wednesday and Thursday. 70 would be sick though!!
