Interesting, severe thunderstorm watch now posted just to our north. The 12z SPC WRF now focuses a strong line over northern NJ

Does it hold for us?...4k dissolves them before it reaches us. Wrf is much more south though. I gatta check the hrrr when I get home.

The eastern end of the line clips the city and then Long Island

TWC is reporting over 90F at Southern Westchester County.

 

TWC is not to be trusted when it comes to obs.  I remember some years ago they were simply making them up, saying it was snowing in an area just because the radar had echoes while not a single station was actually reporting snow.

Weird. Well, I don't know what OBS source is legitimate, so I'll just say N/A (Not Available).

Anyone have details on the Euro for the weekend? GFS went back to that euro look from a day or two ago with a low near us giving us a crappy Saturday.

 

Rains winding down early Friday morning with a dry and cool weekend for late May.

Thanks. Weird how at one point or another both the gfs and the euro showed that low still near us through saturday...glad its looking to clear out. Ill take cool and dry.

 

Showers may linger into Friday afternoon on the Euro, but it gets the low east of New England by Saturday.

The Euro is hinting at temps dipping below 50 Saturday morning which would be the coolest late may readings

since 2005.

Wunderground will at least show real stations.  Now, whether their obs are legit or not is another question.  Always best to check against the airport sites, they are most likely to be accurate (except Lakehurst :doh: )

TWC uses a system known as HiRAD. HiRAD is embarrassing. The obs put out by HiRAD are almost always wrong. There are times when HiRAD is too warm in particular area. One example was during the March 2012 heat wave, HiRAD had one area in Michigan hitting 95F, which was obviously wrong. Sometimes HiRAD is too cold, that happens a lot here on LI as it overestimates the sea breeze. Stick to ASOS or your backyard thermometer (if it's in a good spot).

Thanks for giving the details on what I already could tell was a bogus system just by observing it (something TWC apparently knows nothing about, observing)
