coastalplainsnowman Posted October 16, 2023 Share Posted October 16, 2023 Am I correct to say that the radar in the Northeast is fairly unusual today? Reminds me of how it looks with an arctic blast, except instead of flurries there are tons of what look like mini thunderstorms, though in winter they'd be coming more from the NW than from the N/NNE.

Dark Star Posted October 18, 2023 Share Posted October 18, 2023 What is causing all these vertical cumulus today? Looked like The Day of Judgement driving down Rt. 24... I guess the NWS discussion somewhat answers my question? Forecast mostly on track this afternoon. Moisture trapped beneath a subsidence inversion between 7-10kft will continue to lead to mostly cloudy conditions for much of the day. Sea breeze convergence has developed some bands of cumulus of clouds along it and cannot completely rule out an isolated shower. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Volcanic Winter Posted October 25, 2023 Share Posted October 25, 2023 Will be in Iceland starting Sunday. Last year we hiked Fagradalsfjall volcano and saw the fresh lava flow fields. This specific volcanic system was dormant for 8,000 years before it woke up in 2020; pretty crazy. Volcanic activity on the Reykjanes peninsula goes in cycles with the last having been during the Middle Ages, though Fagradalsfjall itself was dormant for far longer. Well it appears to be waking up for yet another eruption (it’s popped off three times now since waking up), as this looks to be the start of yet another intrusion that began with a 4.6 quake in the area last night and now a notable swarm today which could be magma beginning to break for the surface: https://watchers.news/2023/10/25/intense-earthquake-swarm-near-fagradalsfjall-volcano-iceland/ At the volcanic cone from 2021 and viewing the freshly cooled flow fields during our trip last year. 10 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Volcanic Winter Posted October 25, 2023 Share Posted October 25, 2023 Thanks! Yeah, we’ve yet to do a summer trip. Allure of the northern lights are too intoxicating, plus for me the climate is pretty much perfect this time of year. Can do a strenuous hike and maintain temperature equilibrium well enough you’re not sweating bullets . Iceland with snowcover is also spectacular, especially in the north where we went after our volcano hike last year. Gives the appropriate sense of being near the polar latitudes. Summer has its charms too with the unexpected lush/greenness, midnight sun, and extremely mild temps which is more the speed of most. But the country is a geologic/volcanic wonderland and presents one of the most unique environments on the planet (mid ocean ridge on top of a powerful hotspot).

That beer is just perfect for a backcountry break Einstök makes some really solid, fun beers. I love their take on a dopplebock! Garún stout from Borg is one of Iceland’s finest, too. One of the best stouts I’ve ever had, and it’ll knock you on your ass! Perhaps not so great for hiking, but a solid choice for later! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
