Ju-ply 2026 Obs and Disco - Kicking it off with heat, humidity, and ... severe?

[weatherwiz]

Saturday evening/night looking quite interesting. Good shortwave, strong height falls, good shear, increasing instability

78.4/61 SKC breezy

Pretty much perfect

All the PM monitors in Canada west of Buffalo went to “No Data”. Particulate level too high? Lol

[wxsniss]

While obviously not real-time empirical data like GOES, HRRR has smoke guidance you can see on Pivotal to give you an estimate of current and future placement of the band

Looks like thick smoke enters most of MA / SNH early afternoon 17-20z

It’s like when anemometers start breaking from too much wind.

If I squint on the GOES-W imagery, it looks like a surface based plume is pushing through southern VT.

I think eastern mass might be OK this afternoon. It might get a little hazy but nothing like yesterday.

The loop I just provided suggests we might be in trouble by 2 ...4pm

Did the Trump admin finally just shoot down GOES ?

far too incompetent to pull that off

Front is coming from the north…FU may sneak into SNE briefly, but it will get mostly pinched off up here.

Yeah, we might get that stuff in upstate New York, which is why I said we may get some hazy skies this afternoon, but I don’t anticipate anything close to yesterday. Yesterday was a disaster.

80/60  Building Cu   The sun is bright here.  Some smoke or haze.  From my vantage point I can not make out Mt Sunapee anymore (28 miles)  but still can see Kearsarge to my SSW.  That is 25 miles.

I just don’t want the smoke to kill any storms on Saturday 

[HIPPYVALLEY]

 

seems fine

[weatherwiz]

No EMLs but outside of Saturday night, Tuesday looks decent too for storms. Good shortwave and shear...just have to see how timing works out and what instability is like

If the pattern keeps doing this ... ?    fire up the May/2027 thread

that looks probably isn't terrible for severe wx potential...would probably mean strong fronts moving through with good shear...probably not good for EML potential

you're dreamin'    That's an autumn shut-it-downer pattern big time

[weatherwiz]

I think we're back in action with goes 19

but is that a snap shot from a general pattern or is that a pattern post front? If the formal, then yeah I would tend to agree.

Just went for a three mile run. Honestly wasn’t too bad. Didn’t feel any different than a normal run. Though it also doesn’t feel quite as smoky as yesterday was at this moment?

Also it looks like GOES-19 is back online. 

[LSC97wxnut]

Time sensitive, but it's interesting to see the last plume image before GOES went down yesterday to the first one today.  Much further south and doesn't seem as thick?
