Tropopause_Fold Posted August 21, 2011 Share Posted August 21, 2011 I think the northward relocation was worst case scenario for the weenies. The poor thing might run the length of Hispaniola! maybe it stays north! LOL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CoastalWx Posted August 21, 2011 Share Posted August 21, 2011 The 12z PIT and IAD soundings don't look to bad. It's not an EML, but a couple of steep layers in there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
weatherwiz Posted August 21, 2011 Share Posted August 21, 2011 Surprisingly the severe threat looks to extend through almost 6z on south coast. Little inversion, very low LCLs, and nicely curved hodographs and surface based instability. Very unusual around here and can only happen a month or two out of the year (with warm SSTs). This is really intriguing to me as well. While nocturnal severe is rare around these parts we are in the time of year where that potential is more likely. However, the setup we have doesn't really scream nocturnal severe to me. Usually our nocturnal threats have an EML or were in a very hot and extremely humid wx pattern or we have very cold temps at 500mb...like -15C or colder.

CoastalWx Posted August 21, 2011 Share Posted August 21, 2011 Things look decent until you look at the vis sat loop lol There is actually some buildups here. I just happened to look out, and some decent CU. There is a weak S/W moving through later on this morning and aftn. I'm just noting those soundings. Would seem to favor things in the daytime for se PA up through NY state like every thinks anyways. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
weatherwiz Posted August 21, 2011 Share Posted August 21, 2011 Anyone ever use the CIPS warm season site? Here's the sum of the reports from the top 15 analogs for 00z tonight. This is awesome! What's the link? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tropopause_Fold Posted August 21, 2011 Share Posted August 21, 2011 Of course what does it mean? Who knows...but just noting some decent dynamics there. like you mentioned yesterday i think, one thing that's always good to see is actual widespread QPF generation.

I was sort of impressed looking at some of the lapse rates on the 12z and forecast soundings. The threat is really convoluted today. I's like to see some more sun.

Scott, 11:30 tee time, I need about 4hrs for our foursome to play the 18 holes. Still look ok or will we be killed? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm a little worried some storms make it in there before mid aftn. Could be some cells that try to make it into the Berks after 2pm, but not a solid line or anything.

Damage In Tolland Posted August 21, 2011 Share Posted August 21, 2011 Looks like all systems go for a decent outbreak in SNE today. Sun is out in most areas..and those storms out in NY State should die out..Looks like hours of destabilizing..dews up into the low 70's. I would think after 4:00 all hell should break loose in some spots. It was pea soup fog from ORH down to TOL on 84 on the way home..and then the sun broke out about 10 mins ago as we pulled in Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoastalWx Posted August 21, 2011 Share Posted August 21, 2011 I sort of like the idea of stuff perhaps weakening a bit after 00z as it heads east, and then redeveloping overnight after 6z or so. An idea I'm tossing around, anyways. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

moneypitmike Posted August 21, 2011 Share Posted August 21, 2011 I'm going going to get a nocturnal storm, have it come right at 9:30 as I climb into bed. It's better than being awakened by it lest I just roll over and go back to sleep. Fully sun albeit a light haze. 69.8/66 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sent from my DROID2 using Tapatalk The NAM (although perhaps conv tainted) has one hell of a LLJ. That might help fire the stuff up after midnight.

weatherwiz Posted August 21, 2011 Share Posted August 21, 2011 sfc winds mainly south across the region as well. You can see the stronger winds with the LLJ just back to our SW, right around 20-25 knots right now which is pretty decent, this is slowly working towards our region as well. sfc winds are about 5-10 mph right now and may increase a bit more too, especially as the LLJ max works in. Once that occurs we should see helicity values crank a bit...0-1 around 100-150 off to our SW now and 0-3 around 100 m2s2. Once the MLJ max moves into the area as well 0-3km helicity should ramp up too. RUC hitting helicity values pretty hard later on this afternoon.

How are things shaping up for the NW corner of Mass? We've seen most activity in the SW corner so far this year. New forecast has upped the ante on pop to 70% today/90% tonight.
