We'll have to see where it does setup. It's not a normal situation. It's moving pretty fast. Might see it collapse a bit, or that might not be the real deal. But I think it is

Nah that;s where it was modeled. Look for H7-H5 fronto. Not just H7.

 

Sorry MPM, I just don't understand why you meh everything. Didn't mean to lash out.

I am and you're correct but looking upstream I don't think it matters. Plenty of other good stuff coming at us. Not the traditional situation.

2.5" +SN. I am really liking the band orientation from CT through central MA into SE NH. 

Yeah. Intensity has waned here for a bit but looks like it is picking up. Heaviest of the day so far was in the intial band about an hour ago.

It may move west of us for a time and pivot back through, but we should pile it up.

No problem, Scott--just funny to see on the model.

 

I'm pretty sure none of us are going to be able to measure any of this anyway.  :)
