  1. Bufkit is legit the best...I don't see how anyone can really forecast without it. It's great too b/c you can manipulate mixing depth. For the most part I find bufkit extremely accurate with winds...though sometimes I think the GFS can tend to be a bit overdone b/c it always seems to go mix happy but OTOH, the NAM I think tends to under-do mixing lol.
  2. Wow...don't think I've ever seen "high" for a tornado watch here...although maybe 5/15/18 had it
  3. And there's the tornado watch
  4. certainly some weak mesos. We probably have another couple hours I'd say before things get really interesting with them.
  5. The HRRR continues to advertise widespread 50-60 knots of wind traversing the state (CT) later today. There seems to be quite a bit of other model support as well. Not only is there model support but soundings and the environment seem to support this as well. I would expect there is going to be widespread tree damage/power outages across the state later. Some will be without power for several days
  6. looking pretty impressive with nearly 200 J of 3km CAPE being modeled for later
  7. Thankfully it's getting closer to landfall so not sure how much room there is for strengthening, however, I guess you couldn't rule out some additional strengthening as it interacts with that ULJ.
  8. NHC did a special advisory. Up to 85 mph
  9. If that is legit we are in for some big trouble
  10. Should this verify there is going to be some widespread damage with a few embedded tornadoes
  11. extrapolated SLP of 985mb found
  12. First two of 2020 for CT! Let's add several more tomorrow
  13. There goes our jet streak. Should continue to strengthen
  14. Wow hurricane winds a bit far into the NE part
  15. Yeah for sure...probably could extend that area to Long Island and southern CT...maybe even a bit farther inland into CT. If we do see gusts 60-70 mph...even if that magnitude only lasts a couple hours...that's going to do significant damage given the fully leaved trees. I mean look at what 50-60 mph winds do during thunderstorms here and those winds maybe last for what...a few minutes? I guess thankfully the ground is dry
  16. 21z RPM actually hints at hurricane-force winds possible along the NJ coast. Actually is a bit impressive with winds well inland across CT. But why does the scale max out at 50 knots?
  17. well recon's first pass was impressive...hurricane force winds
  18. yes but we're talking about with tropical...it's exceedingly rare to get a ENH with a tropical system b/c the main threat is tornadoes and you would need a 10% TOR contour to get ENH and that doesn't happen very often
  19. I can only recall a couple times over the past several years where it's happened. I think it actually may have occurred last season? Maybe it was with Michael
  20. Let's 10% TOR this tomorrow. Hey Alex, I'll take ENH for $1000
  21. 18z NAM BDL at 8:00 AM. CAPE continue to looking very impressive. Def have to wonder if we see an upgrade to an enhanced risk...maybe even see wind probs of 30% if signal for convection persists 3:00 PM lapse rates (3:00 PM)
  22. Actually has some decent TOR potential well into NH and even parts of ME
