We never get thunderstorms anymore. Tuesdays threat looks like it stops in Worcester as does most threats. Every summer we start off strong in the spring and then it turns into a dust bowl in EMA. Lawns are complete toast here already. My lawn is good so far. Haven’t watered much. You guys missed out on some rogue stuff this month too.

SW CT and the New Haven area have mostly non profit water companies with dirt cheap water. I run my irrigation every day and it adds maybe $40 to my bill. I think a CCF which is like 750 gallons cost me like $2. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My water bill for the summer running my irrigation 3 days a week will be $3k on town water. They've jacked water rates sky high to discourage irrigation. New well is $12-$15k. I can't get the minister of finance to approve this for a green lawn. . 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

radarman Posted 5 hours ago Share Posted 5 hours ago About 10 years ago I caught 7 bats in my house until I figured out how they were getting in. Still have PTSD from the first night I woke up to one swooping back and forth over my head in the bedroom. But by the end I was a full on ninja capturing those things. Anyway, beneficial creatures, but no do not have a bathouse. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kind of looks messy overall. Yup...looks like best will be southwest (of course). Might have to watch central/northern New England though around the warm front. SPC hints at it too...but could be potential for a TOR or two if there is enough destabilizing there Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would really kill for a repeat of 2008 with the constant cold pools. June and July were insane with the daily thunderstorms and hail. Would even be better if we could get 90's squall lines again but that seems like a distant thing of the past. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd say I agree, but with a condition. lol. Just my impression, but it seems like we get fewer 'maintenance' variety CB days. but then you get a Monson, or like what happened with the crazy micro derecho that hit my town a month ago, and when they do, they're more extreme? interesting. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CT Rain Posted 4 hours ago Share Posted 4 hours ago Thursday could be interesting if we can bump dew points up a bit. Cold temps aloft, decent lapse rates, and strong mid level flow. Worth watching. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've had two damaging events in my hood since 2020, but I mean overall for SNE. We just haven't had those good widespread events. Just a few here and there that are impactful. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SouthCoastMA Posted 4 hours ago Share Posted 4 hours ago 2 hours ago, Chrisrotary12 said: Does it work? Yes, but the downside is you need to reapply every few weeks, or especially after heavy rain. I may look into the cedarcide pellets as a supplemental application. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cold temps aloft, decent lapse rates, and strong mid level flow. Worth watching. I like cold pool alofters .. those days have better lapse rates. I've come to find over the many years of my un-affecting existence that all other metrics notwithstanding, we need mlv lapse rates around here.

weatherwiz Posted 3 hours ago Share Posted 3 hours ago Tomorrow may not see much lol. It's extremely warm aloft. +9C to +10C at 700 and -7C at 500mb. Actually kind of sucks because forcing/shear isn't terrible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mid-level lapse rates are garbage so I am assuming he means low-level lapse rates...but not sure how steep those are tomorrow regionally due to lots of cloud cover. Probably a better chance llvl lapse rates are steeper across southeast PA into NJ but not sure if they will be anything to write home about. Not sure I see much risk for an isolated tornado there...if any risk existed it would be in central New England, closer to the warm front. Winds down there veer more in the llvls as the warm front lifts farther northeast. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
