If you had the time that would be a decent road trip.

Yeah this has serious potential down that way tomorrow. I imagine the power outages are going to be quite high

Hard pass on a 16+hr drive to chase linear mode low topped thunderstorms with fast moving embedded tornadoes.  If you even see one you're probably too close. 

But take the drive out if it and of course

Sun is winning here at the moment. 
 

Gonna be a fight all day but currently mostly cloudy and fair weather bright conditions…

Looks like one of these @Sey-Mour Snowhydro events?

I noticed that too. Ground was not frozen. But I know earlier in Feb it definitely was. I think warmer temps and solar insolation even through the snow helps thaw.

Yes, outside of my driveway (the unpaved half) my yard is not wet or spongy at all. Even 90% of my driveway has dried out so not overly concerned with the rain tomorrow.

The COD 3k gust maps are still bringing the wind. Ginxy’s maps probably show 100mph+

[Damage In Tolland]

If NAM is right widespread issues tomorrow night

Definitely work and you have to be very strategic.  To be clear, unless it's a wind blown storm, I only take 10 measurements at 12z daily, not every 6-hr new-snow ob.

I also have one of those fancy 40" sticks with a handle, plus an 8' wingspan, so I can space far from my feet.  Helps great deal.

8 foot wingspan?!?

[weatherwiz]

Tomorrow is one of the most impressive setups I think I've seen for line-embedded tornadoes in the mid-Atlantic tomorrow. That is some serious turning in the lowest 3km with what looks to be more than sufficient CAPE, not to mention the timing of the strongest forcing seems to coincide quite well with the best ingredients.

Ginxy doesn't make maps.

[weatherwiz]

Probably can't rule out some strong thunderstorms during the early afternoon along the edge of higher theta-e air working in
