  1. When I was driving into work this morning I was getting onto Rt. 9 from 84 in West Hartford and I saw the flash to the NW. Plenty of blue sky...or much more than I thought anyways here in Branford. Satellite doesn't look horrific.
  2. the mesos have been pretty horrific the past week with convection...not just here in the Northeast either. So much inconsistency...anyways I think there is room today to get some discrete cells going. CT could actually be a hot spot today
  3. If we can punch some dry air into the mid-levels (enough anyways) could be a widespread wind event
  4. Signals are conflicting...there is a chance they could be like 6-6.5...which is not bad for around here but they could be closer to 5.5 if there is a lot of crap. Anyways...as long as we can destabilize and not have to worry about that the high dews should compensate
  5. Going to be a tight window but it could be pretty widespread...even despite the weak mid-level lapse rates. Not to beat the bat with the dead horse, but if we are able to get 2500 J/KG of MLCAPE...I think that's the magic value. Where's @OceanStWx been????????????
  6. yes, I think so. I think our best window is early on...so we're going to want to start with sun...I don't think we need a ton of sunshine so we don't need sunny skies...but we want to get MLCAPE over 2000 and 3km CAPE over 125 J...and maybe we could get away with closer to 100 J of 0-3km CAPE.
  7. storm motion actually looks like it might be with the flow too so that could decrease tornado potential
  8. Really about as as good as it gets around here. One downside is above 1km winds are mainly unidirectional so any tornado potential will be confined to discrete cells...and the window for these may be small. Anyways, we could see a few wet microbusts tomorrow
  9. ORH county NE into southern NH may be in a maximized zone for tornado potential tomorrow...obviously assuming the NAM is handling things correctly. This is what I' thinking... If we are able to see 2000-2500 MLCAPE...it will be a pretty big event. I want to see bufkit soundings and see what is has for 0-3km CAPE but if we can get around 125-150...that will be pretty eye opening
  10. The NAM is a legit tornado threat tomorrow. Not sure how big the window is...might be small...it's also a highly complex set-up
  11. The NAM looks solid out your way. Another chapter to James book coming?
  12. I think I should be in excellent position to get out west within the next few years. I think come 2021 I will be eligible for two weeks of vacation and by that point I'll have a few big bills paid off so I can put aside a decent amount of money. I've even thought about holding off until later in the summer...everyone gets so pumped for the spring and you get all the chaser convergence but August can offer up some pretty awesome severe chances out that way...this time of year can be rather underrated.
  13. Guessing the high heat/dews finally got to the OP
  14. Not sure if you’re on Facebook but there is a group called New England Storm Chasers...some nice pics of it on there!
  15. I just missed a better one where’s it was about 3-4 CG’s at once
  16. Well that was amazing! Time to head home
  17. Sun coming out to the west now heavy rain, CG’s, loud booms wow!!
  18. That wind shift was wild...rain was blowing from my behind to my front and then it all of a sudden went from my front to my behind
