  1. I wish dews were even 4-5F higher in the Hartford-Springfield corridor. That cluster in southeast New York would be prime to take off. We are also increasing mlvl winds and ulvl divergence so that will compensate a bit.
  2. probably also a ton of tree buds flying around. Trees going to look like winter again when all said and done
  3. interesting...looks to be going in different directions too...was right to left across the camera then left to right...but could just be the storm rolling through with a Wind shift
  4. That may be a product of 1) As its moving away from the Albany radar the entire storm is being sampled better 2) It's in the process of strengthening but it doesn't look like the reds/greens are rotating around...look to be more divergent like. But it is moving into some better llvl shear so do have to watch
  5. I think that is more straight line versus rotation
  6. that's a pretty good divergent wind signal there
  7. Yeah thunderstorms here definitely don't have the lighting production they do out in the Plains or even Southwest when they get them. That's certainly a product of warm mlvls.
  8. we'll see what happens a bit East...storms went up in a weaker instability encirovnment
  9. That low area of CC is moving along with that core and where there is weak rotation
  10. You may have to just cover for someone on a day we have a risk so you can do it
  11. Nice hail core west of Kinderhook. 70dbz to over 10k on Albany radar...unfortunately storm probably not being sampled fully either. Actually is that a TDS too??
  12. Just got the watch notification!!! This is why May 1st is called the start of severe weather season. So anyone who weenied that before take your weenie back
  13. that little cluster headed for Pittsfield is going to be a good wind producer
  14. The llvl flow is backed enough to where there could be a tornado is any cell remains discrete and can become mature enough. Dews are a bit low so LCL's are sky high so that will probably hinder this a bit but its something to watch for
  15. Should be, we're maximizing heating which is always critical when dealing with lower dews/marginal lapse rates. llvl lapse rates are quite steep from the heating and even 2-6km lapse rates getting at/above 7 C/KM...good indicator there should be some localized damaging wind gusts today.
  16. Been a decent start locally in the thunderstorm department. Had a nice one the other night around 3:00 AM and then there was one a few weeks back like 10-11 PM which had good thunder/lightning. Would like to see some branches come down with some hail today though
  17. mlvl lapse rates look to "steepen" some through the day.
  18. Should be some decent storms though...won't have to go far today!
  19. yeah that's probably about accurate...probably closer to the 5 window than the 7 though. Stuff probably starts firing 3-4 PM
  20. also wish mlvl lapse rates were steeper but that's the theme for here
