  1. Those are the types of features that you (we collectively) always need to use when looking at a raw qpf output, and then make appropriate adjustments...
  2. That's a joke... and a lot of BS!!!
  3. Anyone having slow connection issues with WXBell model section?
  4. Back edge getting ready to come through here... calling it 1.1"...
  5. Agree... Still close call for northern CT with respect to seeing measurable s/ip, but more wiggle room with 12z euro trends. Overall a pretty messy mix but front-end dump has improved.
  6. I hear ya, and it may well trend into a goner. I certainly would not lay any money down on it; likely gets answered with the 0z run...
  7. Hard to argue that point of view; lol Kev will manage to stress no matter which way this trends.
  8. I think that is a bit premature for the northern third of CT; I would still keep the forecast close to the vest and leave some wiggle room in my forecast for northern CT; no reason to hype for sure, but certainly room for measurable across the northern third of CT. Goner implies there is no room for this to trend into at least a low-grade event for northern CT.
  9. I doubt it... Hopefully the warnings were so good, which they were that folks got into sturdy shelters; although given the likelihood this was an EF 3 or 4, not sure they could have completely escaped without numerous injuries???
  10. Incredible TDS's this evening! Horrible situation.
  11. Yep... Most modeling showed nw CT with only trace amounts to 0.5".
  12. Jerry, as a fellow vertigo sufferer, it's sometimes hard to explain to someone who has not experienced a real nasty event, how bad and scary / unsettling an episode can be. Most of my episodes are mild, but every several years a bad one will hit out of nowhere. After a horrible event a few years ago, a doctor showed me a video showing how to stop or at least temper the event if you sense one is starting. I'm sure you can find it online by googling "exercise for vertigo". I have used it a couple of times since, and it really settled the event down. The one I've used with success is the one by Dr. Foster... Stay well...
  13. That's the key for CT folks... you need to get the upper features to go at least as far south as LI Sound... cannot go right over our heads...
  14. As for the CT outcome, the modeled track of the upper features; especially the 700/850 tracks, are far from ideal for big snows across most of CT, RI and southeastern Mass... decent front-end burst possible and some wrap-around action late, but as modeled those 700 & 850 center tracks have to come considerably further south to offer a decent shot at mod/hvy amounts south of the pike. Quick transition to mixed and rain if those tracks verify. Further north, very dynamic event is on the table.
  15. Using BDL... 2015 Trace... 2016, 2017, 2019, 2020
  16. My experience is Kp of 7 or better. Kp of 6 I get interested, but 7 is my go to number. I dues the Space Weather. com alert system and have my text alerts start at 6,,, The 2003 event was a Kp of 9... It was also exceptionally early in the evening for our area. I was following reports form overseas during the late afternoon and once it exploded across Newfoundland with the Kp getting to 9, I called friends and family and told them to get ready to go outside. You could see the glowing red light from inside your house here in western Connecticut.
  17. I was just going to post that... nice graphic and think it is a solid call right now with time for tweaking in the am...
