Ginx snewx Posted August 15, 2012 Share Posted August 15, 2012 Just like that..rain over..sun is out. I am very bullish about the potential today for some strong to severe today. Tors in Tolland seem a distinct possibility. stock up on water and gas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

S&P Posted August 15, 2012 Share Posted August 15, 2012 quite a light show with the storms over narragansett bay this am. power has cycled a couple of times Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoastalWx Posted August 15, 2012 Share Posted August 15, 2012 Could be some good storms almost anywhere today, but western areas first. Good s/w moves through tonight with further cooling aloft, so could be a decent night show for central and ern areas...might actually be our best chance for storms in the east.

CoastalWx Posted August 15, 2012 Share Posted August 15, 2012 While every tstm always has the inherent wind threat, shear isn't that great today. There is some directional shear which may help, but seems like hail if anything would be a threat if instability can get there. I guess wind secondary. Too bad the shear wasn't another 20kts or so stronger. I do think they'll be some strong storms around and might continue at times through the night.

CoastalWx Posted August 15, 2012 Share Posted August 15, 2012 That's sick! Actually had some gusty winds when this came through. Almost a weak low or something because winds are light NE now, and you can see a similar thing for obs around here. That cell down there looked like it had a bit of rotation.

CoastalWx Posted August 15, 2012 Share Posted August 15, 2012 I could see the tstm threat stuck west for a bit late this aftn and then move east and possibly redevelop tonight..especially perhaps near the south coast, but I think it includes a lot of the area. Kind of tough to pinpoint areas and heights actually rise a bit behind this first impulse this afternoon. I'm actually interesting in tonight, even if it isn't a clear cut situation.

Wonkis Posted August 15, 2012 Share Posted August 15, 2012 Cool... I wonder which line of storms that came from? There were two lines moving in different directions this morning. The initial one moving N/NE was almost like a quasi warm front.

Considering its the only weather that we'll have for about 5 more months, that's probably not a bad idea. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Typhoon Tip Posted August 15, 2012 Share Posted August 15, 2012 SPC has us in the northern region of a SLGHT area... I was noticing some interesting shear profiles by cloud motion coming into the office. Abrupt clearing behind this morning's MCS activity should get things interesting imo, as we have retrofitted the lower troposphere with theta-e from that hit this morning, and we are setting the area up soon for real good insolation as the morning progresses.
