Yeah hoping for some dry nw wind heaters!

Nothing overly excessive due to fast movement of the heavier cores, just a good soaking rain through most of BTV’s zones.

0.62” so far.

Some of the best lightning shows I've had have come from nighttime elevated cape events!  Not a lot of CGs but lots of CC / CA.

Yes. absolutely crazy LTG shows.  Probably tied to the EML and having "fat" CAPE at mid-levels, so the charge separation is ideal in the mixed phase layer.

Being a convective weenie here is like being a snow weenie at RDU.

Moving from Brockton to GHG to Dorchester headed farther N, then back S of Weymouth?  Does a snow weenie in SNE do that?

At least you didn't make this move.

Was that a NWS /gov't work bid/ career move?  You're originally from RI?  What a mistake!

The inverse of winter weather on that map.

I just mean convective models are pretty dry CON-south yet radar looks fairly wet to our west. 

[vortex95]

Rather meh for NNE today.  Not a single svr wx report and one SVR from CAR.  Seems like the overnight stuff will end up better.  RRFS and HRRR show this well for ern CT/RI/SE MA.  Li'l finger of CAPE quite apparent.  RRFS LTG density solid (as a rock).

Yes, it was a promotion. But I didn't know I was a closet severe weenie until I tasted it in the Midwest.

From motherships to barely agitated cumulus?

I've seen some "regular" E TX/LA storms that easily rival the best I have seen in NE.  If you enjoy snow and highest end severe, IA/NE life probably the best call

I'm a snow weenie down by DCA and a severe weenie up in BOS. Who has it worse than me?

[Torch Tiger]

a few light showers roaming around.  with no remotely close to interesting storms, rather let Stein reign supreme and burn
