  1. Run an extension cord and use a shop vac on the ground bees . Thump on the ground to get em to all come out. No need to pour a bunch of chemicals on the lawn.... oh wait
  2. Friday and Saturday had great rideable surf at the cape with afternoon low tides. Low/mid 60s water temps. Both Coast Guard Beach and Marconi have sandbars well offshore. Have to swim across a 40-50 yard gut entirely over your head with waves reforming a bit to get out to it, but then knee deep and perfect once you get there. Tons of people including many small kids were game for it, but I was thinking it'd be interesting if there were a shark sighting.
  3. Nice to the see the EPS last night keep that -EPO ridge and weak -NAO to help suppress heights a little longer into August
  4. Most of the National Seashore beaches had red flags up yesterday, with good sized but low period blown out storm surf on light easterly flow. Race point however was yellow flag and we were getting strong 5 footers breaking and washing up the beach nicely. Not true body surfing, but not a crashing beach break either. They were sending folks flying along the sand with a little exfoliation to boot. Anyway it was low 70s and clear, water mid to upper 60s that far north. Felt great.
  5. Interesting that machine learning convective probs are highest across the Mid Atlantic into NJ. Thus lots of moving parts here yielding a below average convective forecast Anyone have a link for this model?
  6. Saw what I think was a line of Space X satellites overhead on cape cod about a half hour. Just wild.
  7. Best heavy downpour we've had in at least 2 days
  8. 57 kts BAF not shabby KBAF 271958Z 25030G57KT 1 1/4SM R20/4000VP6000FT -TSRA SQ FEW013 SCT060 SCT090 28/22 A2989 RMK AO2 PK WND 24057/1956 LTG DSNT ALQDS RAB58 PRESRR P0010 T02780217
  9. We'll see if BAF can verify a severe gust here shortly.
  10. If you're coming from up north I'd tuck tail and go east of the Quabbin for an intercept later on. I'm thinking not much will come of this present stuff this far west.
  11. a little cell popped between Amherst and Btown. Nothing to speak of just yet, but that's the type of thing that would need to be watched in about 15-20 mins, particularly if it becomes a right mover. Whether it's this particular cell or one like it.
  12. You can kind of see evidence of 1-3 embedded supercell like structures out in the Berks back into the HV, but it'll probably transition to a truly linear system pretty soon. Mainly a wind threat, localized QLCS possibilities aside. We'll see if anything pops out ahead.
  13. this plus a good chunk of overcast and folks should be happy there's no EML
  14. All these fake model soundings I'm looking at are a bit weak with the low level winds. But they do improve a bit as you head toward E CT/RI and adjacent MA. Thinking primarily a straight line threat out here... which'd be about the only notable winds we've had all season. But maybe a little more than that further SE.
  15. Just noticed this thread... I'm in Kingston and woke up to WEA tornado warnings about 25 mins ago. Fully embedded couplet was easy to track over time. Missed me to the west a bit but it wouldn't surprise me if there were some light damage in town somewhere.
  16. Made a weenie pilgrimage to Xenia OH today. Was hoping for severe but it mostly went south along the floor of the OV. Anyway... good luck back home.
  17. These have nearly the same diurnal range as the surface temp sensors. Seems a bit odd. Or maybe it's normal, not sure.
  18. In the winter an outcome like this is nightmare stuff here... today we take. Those pics out of VT are horrific.
  19. Just spoke to my uncle who runs a small hydro in C VT... he said the flow at present is equal to his May 1st climo in 40 years of data collection.
  20. Nice, I heard they were officially open. I finally made it to the Deerfield taproom not that long ago and the work they do is always impressive. Hoping to get to Sandwich at some point also.
  21. Hit Long Sands in York yesterday morning, 10AM low tide and the sun poking out on the edge of a cloud deck. Light east breeze felt great and the water was clean and tolerably warm. Smallish waves but they roll onto that beach perfectly. Unfortunately the same easterly breeze brought in some heavier fog by noon so it was an abbreviated session, but still nice to get to the coast.
  22. Even aside from the rain, the humid overcast and total lack of breeze is the absolute worst.
  23. Areal flooding definitely in play along the small rivers and streams, not just flash flooding. Base flow is already way high for this time of year. Heck even the CT is up, walked over the bridge yesterday to check it out. Looks like April levels. Let's not have any big wet TS this year thanks.
