weatherwiz Posted May 10, 2020 Share Posted May 10, 2020 Another vigorous shortwave moves overhead during the day Monday with extremely unseasonably cold temperatures aloft yielding very steep mid-level lapse rates. Combination of surface heating and dewpoints into the 40’s will contribute several hundred J/KG of MLCAPE. inverted-v signature on forecast soundings indicate potential for strong, gusty winds with any thunderstorms while the super cold air aloft will promote potential for small hail/grauple.

It's Always Sunny Posted May 11, 2020 Share Posted May 11, 2020 I think seeing mid-level lapse rates pushing 8.0C/km is more fascinating than the t-storms you'll be getting tomorrow as exciting as that is too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree with this haha...always love me some mid-level lapse rates approaching 8. Not common around here Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

weatherwiz Posted May 11, 2020 Author Share Posted May 11, 2020 Very nice inverted-V look on soundings later today with as much as 125+ J/KG of 3km CAPE. Could see quite a bit small hailers with some pretty gusty winds. Perhaps a severe gust possible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
weatherwiz Posted May 11, 2020 Author Share Posted May 11, 2020 Actually grauple is probably more likely given the super low WBZ heights Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

weatherwiz Posted May 11, 2020 Author Share Posted May 11, 2020 Just now, Damage In Tolland said: Tors near warm front no tors today haha. Today is nothing special for sure but whatever develops will have a good chance to drop some grauple and produce gusty winds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is hilarious .... across decades of Meteorological experience I've never heard the words 'dewpoint', '40s', and 'contribute' actually attempted in the same sentence when speaking in deference to convection - what a f'up state of climate we must be in Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Typhoon Tip Posted May 11, 2020 Share Posted May 11, 2020 we just went through a weird 2 minute event here when this line of showers passed over head... White noise stripping flowering trees and sending rain drops sideways. Suspiciously inverted sounding as it was decidedly colder gusts. Almost no wind now...
