scoob40 Posted May 30, 2013 Share Posted May 30, 2013 Garden variety here in the lower valley. Very little wind or close lightning strikes. Probably about 1/4 to 1/3' of rain my guess/estimate Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SlantStickers Anonymous Posted May 30, 2013 Share Posted May 30, 2013 Flashes of lightning in Middleton and rain beginning, no audible thunder yet. Scratch that, more lightning and low rumbles. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Typhoon Tip Posted May 30, 2013 Share Posted May 30, 2013 Only a handful of power outages in Litchfield County... appears damage was quite limited. Same story in western mass per WMECO. Might almost back us into a suggestion that this thing is more mid-level driven. More SBCAPE would have result in more negative CAPE and thus outflow down to the deck.

Typhoon Tip Posted May 30, 2013 Share Posted May 30, 2013 But how often do we get a thunderstorm treat on the FRONT side of heat up this way... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CT Rain Posted May 30, 2013 Author Share Posted May 30, 2013 Might almost back us into a suggestion that this thing is more mid-level driven. More SBCAPE would have result in more negative CAPE and thus outflow down to the deck. Yeah enough of an inversion right near the ground to keep the strongest winds at bay? This thing def peaked near ALB and has been winding down since. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ct_yankee Posted May 30, 2013 Share Posted May 30, 2013 Yeah enough of an inversion right near the ground to keep the strongest winds at bay? This thing def peaked near ALB and has been winding down since. SPC mesoanalysis shows almost no DCAPE with this thing, and that's pretty much been true all along, definitely since ALB. It's not an index I look at much, but it does seem to have some value, if today is typical. No DCAPE = no Damage, apparently. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
powderfreak Posted May 30, 2013 Share Posted May 30, 2013 Going to neat to see the entire thunderstorm complex miraculously vanish upon attempting to cross from the watch box into eastern sections...where there's no watch. Are you implying there should be a watch further east? I know you know this, but its not about whether or not they vanish (the BOX forecast has T-storms in the eastern sections), lol.
