Weathergun Posted June 27, 2013 Share Posted June 27, 2013 Although there is some marine influence, tainting the instability near NYC and east, I really don't think it's going to be that big of a hindrance. It's still around 80/70 in most areas, and MU CAPE is still pretty high -- so it's not like storms would instantly die. Any sea-breeze boundary could help to trigger more lift despite meager mid-level lapse rates and the marine layer. Downdraft CAPE is still expected to be pretty high near NYC as time goes on. Unless more storms form ahead of the batch the next few hours,I think t-storm will have tendency to become more elevated as the reach NYC metro. But I can't rule out an isolated severe t-storm. Especially near boundaries. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I can't rule out an isolated severe t-storm. Especially near boundaries. Agreed. And storms that form out ahead might get swallowed up by a main line, anyway. This is why the best tornado threat is SW of NYC -- discrete convection may last a tad longer there before getting overrun by the more synoptic, linear forcing.

Dsnowx53 Posted June 27, 2013 Share Posted June 27, 2013 Weak mid-level lapse rates doom northeast severe weather outbreaks more often than that. It's hard to find widespread severe weather from truly long-lived severe squall lines without good mid-level lapse rates. ML CAPE is still okay, though -- largely thanks to the moisture. Downdraft CAPE is decent, however. Though this is where the marine layer would hurt -- weakening the low-level lapse rates and thus weakening downdraft potential. And without strong mid-level lapse rates, it might be hard to find storms/convection strong enough to promote enough mixing to get those stronger winds down to the surface in that weaker environment. Not sure if elevated convection will cut it. Perhaps I'm just rambling at this point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IsentropicLift Posted June 27, 2013 Share Posted June 27, 2013 SBCAPE has increased quite a bit now along with the effective bulk shear. Now in the 20-30kt area for western and southern areas.

Dsnowx53 Posted June 27, 2013 Share Posted June 27, 2013 Surface base discrete convection trying to form to our SW, as that area has lots of surface base CAPE and is still relatively far away from the main, linear forcing. The tornado threat is thus better the further SW you go, but it's certainly a good sign that surface based convection is firing that far ahead of the main boundary. That supports the SPC potentially extending the watch to the northeast. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
