TalcottWx Posted May 29, 2013 Share Posted May 29, 2013 There is improving rotation nw of albany. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TalcottWx Posted May 29, 2013 Share Posted May 29, 2013 The line looks like it is loosing some steam The northeast end of the line is heading into an unfavorable area. SW side actually seems to be strengthening which would make sense given the atmosphere its heading into. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Typhoon Tip Posted May 29, 2013 Share Posted May 29, 2013 Severe in SNE I think you may have that backward Not speaking for Will, but I'm a firm believer of sever in NE and have personal experiences that atone. You may be referring to an argument I was having with others earlier in April, when/where I was attempting to dispell the myth that since we don't have severe with the same frequency as say, Norman Oklahoma, that we should throw our hands and be on this auto-negativity pilot. Which some engage in, and it is annoying, and it is illogical, and wrong; particularly when people have died in tornadoes in New England. To mention, lightning strikes and every so often, large hail. I don't delude myself into thinking that our severe comes with the same panache, or frequency, as it does in Tornado Alley, but to be an extremist in the other direction is irresponsible, and quite stupid for lack of better word.
