NaoPos Posted July 18, 2012 Share Posted July 18, 2012 Timing would prob be 4-7. Really wish we had some decent shear, we'd be in business. But today's threat is looking credible due to the higher cape values sustaining updrafts. That's why we're seeing them too out at 50k/ft. Def gonna help to offset the lackluster shear environment.

Thunder Road Posted July 18, 2012 Share Posted July 18, 2012 Explosive development in Dauphin County in the last 30 minutes. That's probably Philly's storm. Edit: Just got a warning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bluehens Posted July 18, 2012 Share Posted July 18, 2012 Anybody have bigger sized picture showing CAPE in the SEPA/DE area? We have been under solid clear skies here in northern DE since daybreak and we're over 100 at this point. Got to be a lot of juice there. Even without the sheer I have to think the storms will be pretty decent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
