Should be a quite a bit of lightning with flash flooding as a concern. Not sure if there will be damaging wind potential throughout but I could see a pocket of wind damage into southwestern Hartford County from NJ, southeast NY, and through Fairfield County maybe the storms ride along the boundary separating MU 60s vs 70+ dews? I'm with ya though def bullish on storms this evening / tonight 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I lived in Martin County and worked in Okeechobee/Indian River/St Lucie Counties and days like today remind of those days in FL; glad this is short lived. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm with ya though def bullish on storms this evening / tonight yup going to want to watch that dewpoint/MUCAPE gradient. I also have to say...things are evolving a good 3-4 hours earlier then I was anticipating. But this is where we stand with MUCAPE. Activity may come through early enough that the storms remain surfaced-based which could mean an increased risk for damaging wind gusts well into the region. But to go along with Scott's posts about the dewpoints, there is a significant drop off in MLCAPE values away from the coast as drier air mixes down. Have to see when/if they rebound 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CON -0.55 Y-T-D and ORH +1.24. Yes, BOS is a "hole" but that is quite local and it we know it is low by about 2" due to bad LEQ from the big S+ events this winter. | At what point does long-term drought "go away" as a weight for considering drought? It is not defined anywhere I can find. A *lot* of decisions about land and water management are made from the drought monitor, so it needs to reflect actual conditions accurately! Back in the day, the Crop Moisture and Palmer Drought Severity Index were used and IMHO, these are better. They parse things out instead of one lumped categorical map. See attachments for current conditions. I don't see any drought/dry issues in New England! Been my mantra for over a decade 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I did soil sampling for my Internship with USDA and know exactly what you mean. Mid August is no joke near the coast for high 90s over upper 70s in corn fields 8 foot tall. Lol I did get lost for an hour in a 100 acre field once. Came out as sticky as cotton candy from the heat and corn. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
