Man if Steve is busting your technology you know it’s bad

I have a YouTube. I’ll upload when I get home in a few minutes

Sun back out...time for round 2!!!

Here’s one of the videos. Might have gotten the strongest winds on my camcorder b/c it was already rolling. IMG_4393.MOV

Ryan said 48 knots at BDL. Estimation was rick solid. Can’t wait to post video

I am soaked!!! The inside of my car is soaked!!!! Street flooded!!!! I was being blown in my car hahahahaha thought there was a tor

Had to gust 50+. Someone check BDl

Holy shit!!!!

Wall of rain coming

Worst just to the Southwest ughhh

Just saw a sick CG

At BDL!

LEAVING WORK NOW!!!!!

This may be getting ready to become a big wind producer

Kinda odd how BDL's dewpoint is only 70...that's like 2-3+ lower than around them

the line is moving super slow though. not sure how quickly the stronger dynamics aloft are accelerating southeast but hopefully the slow movement of the line allows time for them to slide southeast? IDK

This summer has been the worse. I was so pumped...literally live about a 1-2 minute drive from the airport and was working from home...that was a perfect recipe to catch storms. I have not had the opportunity ONCE to sit at the airport and watch storms come in. The few times I think BDL got hit I was down in Newtown. Maybe August can deliver goods but we tend to get nocturnal stuff...which is great but you can't see cloud features.

doubt I'll be back in Windsor Locks in time...damn

yup...bulk shear is pretty nice, however, vertical shear relatively weak. Looks like best is actually behind the cold front (something else we usually get screwed over with)

probably b/c the coverage will be more isolated-to-scattered. there could be like a swath where damage is a bit more concentrated though

MCD watch possible.

I meant to say that instead of mostly haha

Full sun is certainly good but honestly in a situation where you have poor lapse rates there isn't a whole heck of a lot of difference between full sun and mostly sun...I mean if the difference is like 3-4F in temperature then yeah there is a big difference but when you have poor lapse rates your ceiling about how unstable you can become is very limited. A temp difference of 1-2F can also be a difference maker in CAPE but regardless we're only looking at 1000-1500 J of MLCAPE today...maybe 2000 where any dewpoint pooling occurrs.
