bobbutts Posted July 2, 2014 Share Posted July 2, 2014 Several claps of thunder last few minutes. Looks like a decent cell with hail indicated 2mi S. of me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dryslot Posted July 2, 2014 Share Posted July 2, 2014 Stations on the GYX reporting list showing dews to 75 at 1 PM. The pws that comes up on Wunderground for New Sharon (station's actually next door in Mercer) shows a dew of 79, HI 109. Assuming that's an accurate reading, the instrument must be closely surrounded by forest in full transpirational mode. Svr watch now includes Franklin Cty; wonder if the hvy stuff makes it this far east today. My dews on my PWS is not accurate Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eekuasepinniW Posted July 2, 2014 Share Posted July 2, 2014 starting to look like today is just going to be mostly distant rumbling in every direction with rain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wxeyeNH Posted July 2, 2014 Share Posted July 2, 2014 starting to look like today is just going to be mostly distant rumbling in every direction with rain. As of 4pm I am craftfully missing every storm too. Lots of thunder and lightning but just sprinkles so far. Still lots of rain to the SW but definitely looks like no severe threat now as air has cooled and its solidly overcast. Storm prediction Center has upgraded us for a slight again tomorrow.

dendrite Posted July 2, 2014 Share Posted July 2, 2014 Missing most of the good downpours here too. lots of CG to the east though. Down to 75F. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eekuasepinniW Posted July 2, 2014 Share Posted July 2, 2014 Can't believe that damn line popped and slid about 3 whole miles to my SE... I should have gone to lily pond by LCI. The amount of lightning is ridic... thunder overlapping into a constant rumble. Hooray .06" of rain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

powderfreak Posted July 2, 2014 Share Posted July 2, 2014 Picked up 0.51" in roughly 25 minutes from that t-storm. No real wind to speak of, just torrential rain. Was on my way home from a friend's house and traffic was pretty much at a standstill (the type of rain where people just put their flashers on and call it quits, haha) on RT 108. Down to a refreshing 69F as the rain ended. I'm up to 0.68" on the day, with 0.12" at 5am, 0.05" around 2:45pm, and then 0.51" at 4:45pm. Radar did a great job with that estimation...showing around 0.5" here (I'm the blue dot, ~1.5 miles WNW of the center of Stowe). Looks like J.Spin would've gotten in on the same storm with similar rainfall. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wxeyeNH Posted July 2, 2014 Share Posted July 2, 2014 Concord should do very well with total rain by the time it ends this eve. .14" here as of 6pm with light rain continuing. Hit 90F exactly today Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eekuasepinniW Posted July 2, 2014 Share Posted July 2, 2014 Picked up .63" in the VP2 and .62" in the manual gauge so I guess the variation with the last storm was a fluke. Hopefully a better clobbering is in the cards for tomorrow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eire015 Posted July 3, 2014 Share Posted July 3, 2014 Littleton got hit today by a severe storm around 3 pm. It looked like it briefly took on supercellular characteristics judging by the reflectivity data. I measured 1" hail at my apartment and there was very gusty winds and flash flooding. In my neighborhood there was some small branches and larger rotten branches down, and the rest of town had a few trees down in scattered areas. When I drove down Route 302 toward Lisbon the tree damage became more extensive and concentrated. Large trees are uprooted and many healthy trees are snapped in half on either side of the road. I think it is possible that a microburst hit there as all the tree are fallen in a north and northeasterly pattern. Very exciting day! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

J.Spin Posted July 3, 2014 Share Posted July 3, 2014 I'm up to 0.68" on the day, with 0.12" at 5am, 0.05" around 2:45pm, and then 0.51" at 4:45pm. Looks like J.Spin would've gotten in on the same storm with similar rainfall. Yes, 0.46” on the day, from 0.13” at morning observations and 0.33” subsequent to that. I wasn’t around in the afternoon, but I suspect a good chunk of today’s liquid was from that storm you showed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

powderfreak Posted July 3, 2014 Share Posted July 3, 2014 67.8...70s min fail 70/69 here right now...still excessively humid. Visibility at the ASOS has been at 2.5 to 5 sm vis with haze/mist. Very thick air. The novelty of this weather is starting to wear off already. Although, the good news is, after this the dews in the lower 60s will feel refreshing. 50s will be downright luxurious.

One year when I was in Key West, the first week had dewpoints of 77-78 and highs of 86-88, and then a front came through. It felt amazingly dry and comfy so I was surprised to see it was like 84/71. Amazing how quickly your body adapts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Allenson Posted July 3, 2014 Share Posted July 3, 2014 Just missed the heavy stuff yesterday to our south: only 0.10" at the house and a few miles south of us pushed an inch. We'll see what pops today Let's get this front through and have a sweet weekend! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tamarack Posted July 3, 2014 Share Posted July 3, 2014 Last 4 days' highs: 82,84,86,88. Don't think we'll continue that trend today, maybe top out around 85. Storms yesterday dropped 0.70", never raining really hard (unlike what I drove thru on the way home), and nothing like the 4" in an hour that some folks to our west are dealing with.
