Damage In Tolland Posted July 26, 2015 Share Posted July 26, 2015 Second time in a week I've had Mammatus overhead from a storm that was 100 miles away and not a drop Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
weatherwiz Posted July 26, 2015 Share Posted July 26, 2015 I am just completely baffled lately when it comes to forecasting convection...almost lost. Just don't get it. We have setups which seem pretty decent and crap. Today everything in its right mind sucks and boom...then other times we get something like this setup and nothing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

weatherwiz Posted July 26, 2015 Share Posted July 26, 2015 Looks like a pocket of 20-25 knots of bulk shear values moved into MA which probably really helped enhance those storms Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

moneypitmike Posted July 26, 2015 Share Posted July 26, 2015 Well that's that. Not sure if the storms developing more downstream. But best storm of the year here--which is not saying much at all. A quick .5", the summer of lushness continues. The sun's out now; we'll see if the shower in northern Berkshire holds/builds or disappears.

weatherwiz Posted July 26, 2015 Share Posted July 26, 2015 .21 of rain here in the last 16 days. Not good in the heart of summer sun the rich have been getting richer in terms of rain this summer from convection. We have had some pretty solid rains here at times but it's just the same areas getting hit time after time again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

weatherwiz Posted July 26, 2015 Share Posted July 26, 2015 It's far Western areas and E areas. Central SNE just hasn't had anything. eastern areas has had tremendous benefit from enhanced lift from boundaries. Central areas have been screwed b/c we have either had poor FROPA timing, s/w energy has been tracking too far north and FROPA's have been rather weak as well. Let's hope after this upcoming heat wave we can get a widespread squall line banger episode. We have not really had a tremendous powerful squall line push through the entire region in quite some time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's just the pattern.I don't think it's too much to expect 1 or 2 regular thunderstorms during the summer. Don't have to be severe.
