Ginx snewx Posted June 17, 2013 Share Posted June 17, 2013 Wonder if most if this bypasses CT to the north. Front is stalling and running parallel to flow. Maybe tomorrow is our dayJoe D @JoeDawg42: Watching along/S of Pike for severe threat. Large temp/dewpt spreads, -14C at 500 mb & 40-50kt shear as storms head in from E NY.

CoastalWx Posted June 17, 2013 Share Posted June 17, 2013 This is ridiculous, absolutely ridiculous. It's always something here. We could have a PERFECT setup and a bunch of canary's flying south could fart and that would develop a warm pocket aloft which would prevent convection from developing high updrafts I think today is going as planned?

weatherwiz Posted June 17, 2013 Author Share Posted June 17, 2013 I think today is going as planned? What do you mean? Yeah I agree. It's just these updrafts are having so much trouble but why is that? I know the dews are on the lower side but that really can't be having such a negative effect on the updrafts, can it? i guess if you don't have the moisture to lift than I understand. But if it more of the fact that shear is just outweighing buoyancy? Do we have stubborn warm layers aloft? A combination? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

weatherwiz Posted June 17, 2013 Author Share Posted June 17, 2013 MLcape values only 500-1000 J/KG which is certainly an issue but that is indicative of the dewpoint situation and depth of quality llvl moisture Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Better dynamics there too. It will all sag ESE so give it an hour or so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TalcottWx Posted June 17, 2013 Share Posted June 17, 2013 On 93 south of woburn. Have a meeting at merrimack later. Chasing a couple cells in the meantime. I bet theres a couple warnings tossed as these traverse sne Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

weatherwiz Posted June 17, 2013 Author Share Posted June 17, 2013 I wonder if we see dewpoints start to increase right ahead of the line, flow out ahead of it could really pump in some higher dews from the south coast. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

radarman Posted June 17, 2013 Share Posted June 17, 2013 It's pretty messy looking with not much indicative of strong updrafts, hail, or rotation. But the velocities are still decent (maybe 40kts) and the beam is sampling things pretty low now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trees were bending way over at times though with leaves/twigs flying past and C/G was frequent with vis below 1/8 at times. Clearing now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
