Damage In Tolland Posted August 2, 2011 Share Posted August 2, 2011 I wouldn't be shocked if areas east of the ct river have a chance for storms today. There's some hope for Kevin perhaps. Nah..they'll fire up from Ginx's area in SE CT on east.. Too far east yesterday for the most part..and too far west today..no man's land Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Too far east yesterday for the most part..and to far west today..no man's land i agree with scooter...wouldn't be surprised if the furthest west cells clip YBY...a lot of guidance has stuff that far west...just more isolated than the stuff over eastern areas.

Hope you guys are right..but I'm thinking I'm too far west at home. I bet Ginx gets a nice storm near his house in New London Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I bet Ginx gets a nice storm near his house in New London His area may have a better shot, but I wouldn't be shocked if soemthing moves through your backyard...just more isolated like Phil said.

free_man Posted August 2, 2011 Author Share Posted August 2, 2011 Lol. It was like being in FL yesterday...watching those go up then fall apart Had that Florida vision when I made that post, too. Best setup evah ; 15kt shear, 90/75, >2000 j/kg, the weakest seabreeze front known to man, not detected by radar only subtle obs, sparks off a single cell 60dbz cells that dump 18" of rain over three hours in an isolated swamp in the Everglades and no one else in the state had a drop. That was yesterday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Too far east yesterday for the most part..and too far west today..no man's land Best is NE Mass. yesterday was probably one of the best scenic days of my life. Anvil tops surrounded me with Mammatus overhead for two hours plus then a cobalt blue Arctic, tropical sky at sunset. Can not say the weather has been boring, what a year.

Sn0waddict Posted August 2, 2011 Share Posted August 2, 2011 At misquamicut wouldn't mind a big +tsra I'm at Block Island, so I feel the same way. Yesterday there was a great light show though from the storm that hit Central Long Island. It's amazing how far you can see when there is nothing but water around you.

Snow Bow Posted August 2, 2011 Share Posted August 2, 2011 Modestly moderate rain shower ongoing right now. Think this might be about it for the day. I guess it helps a little with the lawn but .05" isn't gonna do all that much, maybe I can add on another passing shower or two if I'm lucky. Not looking to good for much else here probably to far west for today. Too far east to cash in on anything yesterday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mattmfm Posted August 2, 2011 Share Posted August 2, 2011 MESOSCALE UPDATE 1 PM... SHOWERS/STORMS BEGINNING TO INCREASE IN COVERAGE ACROSS SOUTHERN VT/NH EARLY THIS AFTERNOON. AIRMASS HAS DESTABILIZED WITH SBCAPES AROUND 1500 J/KG COMBINED WITH 0-6KM SHEAR OF 30-40KT. LIMITING FACTOR SO FAR HAS BEEN RELATIVELY WEAK MID LEVEL LAPSE RATES WHICH ARE INHIBITING STRONGER CONVECTION FROM DEVELOPING IN SOUTHERN NEW ENGLAND AS SEEN BY STORMS STRUGGLING TO FORM ON RADAR. ALTHOUGH LOW LEVEL LAPSE RATES ARE RATHER STEEP...LATEST MESOANALYSIS SHOWS BEST MID LEVEL LAPSE RATES OF 6-7C/KM WELL TO OUR N IN MAINE. IT WILL TAKE UNTIL LATER THIS AFTERNOON FOR THESE MORE FAVORABLE LAPSE RATES TO REACH SOUTHERN NEW ENGLAND AS UPPER LOW ROTATES THROUGH NORTHERN NEW ENGLAND. STILL EXPECTING STORMS TO BECOME MORE NUMEROUS BETWEEN 2 AND 5 PM PRIMARILY IN SW NH...CENTRAL/EASTERN MA AND PERHAPS RI. LARGE HAIL IS MAIN THREAT BUT CANNOT RULE OUT DAMAGING WIND GUSTS GIVEN FAIRLY LARGE TEMPERATURE/DEWPOINT SPREADS. SPC SLIGHT RISK OF SEVERE LOOKS GOOD AND WW IS POSSIBLE IF ACTIVITY CAN BECOME BETTER ORGANIZED THIS FAR S. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kevin W Posted August 2, 2011 Share Posted August 2, 2011 (trying a little reverse psychology) I'll join you with that idea. I say I get squat yet again while everyone just to the East of me gets plenty of action. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoastalWx Posted August 2, 2011 Share Posted August 2, 2011 Lapse rates stink. Unless somehow we get rid of that warmer layer, this isn't gonna cut it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snow Bow Posted August 2, 2011 Share Posted August 2, 2011 Modestly moderate....nice... Looks like you might have a shower make it to you too if you are as fortuitous as I was. Watch out you don't slip and fall on the wet pavement... could be some serious life threatening storms today. All kidding aside though there is a watch up for my area up through Maine so the guys in Norman, OK see enough potential so I can't give up yet, never know where one storm could just pop up I figure. At least Maine is getting some rain today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
