HoarfrostHubb Posted September 29, 2011 Share Posted September 29, 2011 Boy--it's so dark, you'd think it was nearly 7:00. Heavy rain, thunder. Nothing too exciting in the thunder department yet. It really seems that there's been very little east of the CT river (not counting your cell, Bob). Is that the case or have I missed something? EDIT: Right now, it's raining about as hard as I've ever seen it. Lightning now and nearby thunder. No thunder here so far. We had some rain overnight and a few sprinkles during the day Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

moneypitmike Posted September 29, 2011 Share Posted September 29, 2011 Theyll die once they hit the CT border. They always do. LOL. It's an impressive one though. Regardless, it's another big bout of rain heading this way. Big over-achiever on the rain department here. Would that the same takes place this winter's snows.

weatherwiz Posted September 29, 2011 Author Share Posted September 29, 2011 Line moving into a fairly unstable environment with 1000-1500 J/KG of SBcape, 500 J/KG of MLcape, 500-1000 J/KG of MUcape and LI values of -2C to -3C. Shear is pretty damn strong. Helicity is marginal but enough in place to watch for some rotation with embedded supercells if updrafts can become mature enough.

Shear is pretty damn strong. Helicity is marginal but enough in place to watch for some rotation with embedded supercells if updrafts can become mature enough. The line really seems to becoming more diffuse. Heavy to be sure, but less organized. Not sure if that means anything, but just from appearances. Once this batch gets through, it looks like things should be pretty much done. Unless of course I'm missing something--which is always a good bet.

Unless of course I'm missing something--which is always a good bet. More likely just going to be some embedded stronger cells...the entire line itself probably won't be too intense although the line should be accompanied by a brief period of gusty winds. Just have to watch for those embedded stronger cells. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

moneypitmike Posted September 29, 2011 Share Posted September 29, 2011 enjoy the +15 tomorrow JD Meh. It will be above, but not by that much. I'm guessing a high of 70. Maybe I'll luck out and come in sub-that. Either way, it won't feel too warm since the departure is from a lower starting point, and we haven't been acclimated to truly cool weather yet.

There will be +15 departures in sne tomorrow, if there is enough sun there will be some very warm temperatures.
