@wdrag great job picking up the Saturday threat early. I wish it panned out but you saw the potential before anyone else that I heard from.
@forkyfork and great job to you for picking up on today's potential yesterday.
This isn't a big forum but we're very blessed to have talented meteorologists and enthusiastic amateurs--one of my favorite online communities I belong to.
Good luck today everyone!
Might be another day for orographic lift, sea breeze, training storms. Cumulus building in the area. Weak steering flow all around. I'm watching the clouds and they're basically stationary.
These have been very, very small cells. I got about 10 minutes of a light, showery rain. Really small drops, it sort of looked like it was raining hard but it was basically an angry spritzing.
I can actually smell the rain from the storm outflow but we haven't gotten drop one in Ye Olde Apartment Complex. It's like waving a cookie in front of a dog's nose, just feed me you bitch.
Ton of chances this upcoming week, I think it's pretty inevitable we all cash in at some point. It's nothing but hot and humid as far as the eye can see.
What an absolutely premium day outside. Pristine sky, light breeze, warm sun, no humidity, birds singing. Couldn't have imagined this weather looking at the forecast last week.
My friend is a doctor in Brooklyn (whose hospital was featured in The New York Times a few weeks ago due to the early tsunami of patients) who got it. Seems mild fatigue was his only symptom and it subsided in about two days. The diversity of outcomes is fascinating and scary and will make for really interesting research papers that I am sure are already being worked on. Hopefully yours is equally mild, feel better soon.
I'm ready for thunderstorm season boys. Let's kick it off in style, fire up the SE ridge, pop a few 80-balls around the end of the month and get some squall lines in here.
