I’d be happy with sub severe 90% of the time. Doesn’t have to be classic plains/midwest tops to 80,000 feet stuff..It looks like I’ll be moving to southern NH in the next two years so hopefully that’ll improve my lot a little
The AFD for Chicago is pretty ominous for tomorrow:

History has shown (at least to me living in EMA) that depending on a warm front to break through and clear us out to set us up later is a lot to ask. I can’t even count the times we had solid overcast while I’m desperately wishing the clouds to break and the sun to shine while NYC and the region get pounded..I acknowledge I’m admittedly not exactly in a severe hot bed where I live but that’s been the scenario 8 out of 10 times here.
Thunderstorms are like orgasms. Twenty minutes of fun and then it’s over. Haven’t had a sustained thunderstorm more than a half hour in many years. But hey, I’ll take anything including 20 minute orgasms
Were there a lot of thunderstorms around locally the day of the Worcester tornado? I thought I read somewhere Boston got a strong thunderstorm later that same afternoon.
The usual doubts apply but mentioning it anyway:
KEY MESSAGE 3...Strong to severe thunderstorms possible by Tue with
perhaps a better potential by Wed but a lot needs to be sorted out.
Quite the ways out there...especially for a convective forecast.
That being said...there are some signals for potentially strong to
severe thunderstorms later Tue and perhaps a better chance by Wed.
This will be dependent upon the timing of a cold front...but given
anomalous/near record warmth the potential is there. In fact...much
of our machine learning guidance indicates some modest severe
weather probabilities for a Day 4-5 forecast...so this is certainly
something to watch.
