weatherwiz Posted October 30, 2017 Share Posted October 30, 2017 Does anyone know what exactly this isentropic analysis is analyzing? There are options for analyzing at 280K, 285K, 290K, 292K, 294K, 296K, 298K, 300K, 305K, and 310K Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just don't get some who think it needs to be 60-70mph to see big damage. Like seen, trees already coming down in 30-40mph gusts. I truly think people over estimate what it takes to cause damage. Like a summer thunderstorm that causes some trees to come down and some think it was 80mph winds. 80mph would blow everything down, not a few uprooted trees along Main Street, lol. It was more likely 45-55mph...which is a heck of a lot of force on foliaged trees. Hopefully we get some big obs from reporting stations otherwise folks are left "estimating" wind speeds from things like uprooted trees, which 9 out of 10 times will be estimated too high. Yup.

Mr. Windcredible! Posted October 30, 2017 Share Posted October 30, 2017 At this rate I can’t imagine keeping our power here.

J Paul Gordon Posted October 30, 2017 Share Posted October 30, 2017 Tomorrow may prove to be more interesting for high winds here in my area... backside of the storm. And it will be daytime and clearing. A nice windy day. Good idea not to park under the trees at work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TalcottWx Posted October 30, 2017 Share Posted October 30, 2017 It looks right now as if the mesolow tracks over BOS, which would put best winds overseas instead of at Logan. Should still be windy as hell still. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully we get some big obs from reporting stations otherwise folks are left "estimating" wind speeds from things like uprooted trees, which 9 out of 10 times will be estimated too high. I'm def looking at ASOS stations. Esp like BID, GON, and FMH for the coastline...they are all pretty well exposed. And for interior it is def ORH...by far the most exposed...esp from a SE direction. One of those should gust really high if the winds are going to hit the bigger numbers some of the guidance we were looking at. MQE will be a "fun" one for near BOS but it obviously isn't representative of much else other than the top of blue hill and maybe the top of the Pru or Hancock buildings. They have gusted to 60 knots in many an event that busted elsewhere. BOS itself it pretty good for a SE wind too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

40/70 Benchmark Posted October 30, 2017 Share Posted October 30, 2017 That is another point....lots of anecdotal tales will be flying in the morning....."trust me, the big winds verified, I heard it"...."my grandmother's lilac was toppled, it survived many a bad wind storm". This is why the point regarding ob station reports is such a good one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
