  1. There were more damaging wind reports outside of the marginal area then there were inside (Not a knock on SPC...just funny how that works sometimes)
  2. Yes but there may be some local enhanced tornado potential in a few areas tomorrow
  3. No derecho but may see a concentrated area of numerous damage reports
  4. It’s a downed tree limb lol
  5. No tree left standing tomorrow
  6. I actually think there is potential for a tornado around BOS. P
  7. Friends house in Chestnut Hill
  8. I am sitting outside...not bad at all in the shade. Going to start working outside from now on. Fook wasting away inside a house
  9. We as in your backyard or we as the region as a whole
  10. Wednesday features yet another day of high heat and humidity for many, however, this time that energy is liable to be utilized as a weak surface trough/associated surface low pressure track from north-central NY through north-central New England. The combination of temperatures ranging from upper 80's to mid 90's and dewpoints pushing lower 70's will contribute to a moderate unstable airmass with MLCAPE values likely exceeding 1500-2000 J/KG despite poor mid-level lapse rates. Forecast models also indicate a belt of 50+ knots at 500mb traversing portions of the region with 25-30+ knots of low-level shear. Scattered-to-numerous thunderstorms should begin to rapidly fire by mid-to-late afternoon with activity quickly converging into multiple line segments. Wind shear is more than sufficient for activity to quickly organize into multiple lines. Combination of strong wind shear, moderate instability, and very steep low-level lapse rates will bring about the potential for damaging wind gusts, including a swath of widespread damaging wind gusts. Large CAPE, especially in the hail growth zone, will also bring about the potential for large hail, especially early on in storm mode. This will also contribute to vivid/frequent cloud-to-ground lightning. A tornado or two is also possible...especially along any llvl convergence zones. PWATS > 1.50'' suggest the potential for poor drainage flash flooding. Thursday also has potential but tomorrow will play a factor into that.
  11. It's so nice out. Sick in tired of sitting inside in AC during the summer. What a freaking waste. Should just take my laptop outside and work. I came to this realization when I worked from home most of last summer...just freaking wasting away sitting inside. It's horribly depressing.
  12. ENAHNED RISK TOMORROW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I can't wait to make a thread in a few hours. YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! DAMAGE HEAVY, HEAVY DAMAGE!!!!!
  13. There may be some localized influences which could increase the potential for a tornado out that way
  14. I made a post about Wednesday yesterday morning. I had thought there was a chance to get some steeper mid-level lapse rates but models kinda backed off on that. Obviously SBCAPE is going to be through the roof given the high temps/dewpoints but as Scott said, MLCAPE is what you want to look at. The NAM is generating insane MLCAPE values tomorrow but its also spitting out Td's into the mid-70's. Now is that possible...it certainly isn't uncommon to see dewpoint pooling ahead of an approaching front but I'm not totally sold yet on dews that high (but I haven't looked in detail to say this for sure). One issue I see with for tomorrow is the strongest shear being displaced from the strongest instability, however, there is enough shear across northern/central New England to certainly warrant some supercell potential there. Given tall/skinny CAPE profiles and high PWATS greatest risks will be 1) Vivid/frequent CG lightning 2) Localized flash flooding (poor drainage) 3) Localized damaging wind gusts/hail I'll do a thread later...and include Thursday. Thursday could be decent
  15. Looks like we should see scattered-to-numerous thunderstorms Wednesday. Should even see a few localized severe thunderstorms. Lightning will be greatest risk...probably quite a bit of CG's. Lapse rates don't look overly terrible but greatest dynamics just a bit displaced from greatest instability. Could see some localized flash flooding too given PWATS
  16. probably found a way to tickle it inbetween obs
  17. Seattle broke their daily high record at 10:26 AM
  18. Can't believe GFS bufkit still making a run for 120F at PDX tomorrow
  19. The signals for a pretty meh weekend next weekend have been there for several days. It's jut a question of what kinda meh are we talking about. Cool/cloudy with areas of showers around of warm/on the muggy side with areas of showers and thunderstorms.
  20. Atmosphere was incredible those final few innings. Was my first sporting event since Covid…felt amazing
  21. Decided to go to Sox/Yanks tonight. Should be a great evening
  22. bored out of my mind so I replied with a to all
