nice to see that...we'll see how it works out.  There's quite a bit of clearing sweeping up across the area at mid and u/a levels according to high res vis loop this hour.  As that expands over this sludge it will be interesting to see how the mid April sun goes to war over top. 

The day glow is also already elevating over the last 10 min here so my est for 11 am might not be so bad. 

Gotta watch exactly where that boundary ends up because we may see some transient supercells along it

Are there apples, peaches, or pears nearing bloom down there yet? Otherwise probably not much damage. Our natives can handle these swings in April. But my pawpaws can get cambium damage sometimes even if they haven’t broken bud if it’s cold enough and the sap is starting to flow. 

Oh yeah all fruit and flowering trees are in bloom. All maples have tiny leaves and even some Oak species have popped . I’d suspect after the next 2 still warm ish days everything will have leafed

April here has never been early enough to threaten late frost damage, but May is different, especially in 2010.  That year had 3 straight months, Feb, Mar, and Apr, as our warmest, then May 1-5 was +14 with average highs of 77.  Everything was 3-4 weeks ahead of average, then May 11-13 had minima of 22/26/25.  100% kill of apple blossoms and ash shoots, serious damage to maples, beech, birch, lighter damage to oak.

Awful out there. Congrats SW

Suns out in downtown Boston before us.

Rock on! 

The wind on 1K high Worcester air port needs to go SW ... that would tell us there's frontal retreat.  Otherwise, even if the sun comes out we'll hang up at 62 bone-in-ass watching it be 80 up to Sturbridge.

Truck went from 88  to 90 as I was out at lunch. A real winner here today. Hottest of the week for sure.  The rain and this big heat will bring out more of the foliage for sure. Hottest until post 4th of July? Lol. 

Well, I'll bet it's awhile before we see 85 again
