October Comes Early: Late September Multi-Hazard Hybrid Storm

[tamarack]

Blue skies here.  The only rain is of ash leaves, as that species is near full color and 1/4 dropped.  Hope we get some decent rain, though I'm not optimistic.
Current flow numbers for today on the Sandy River:
Median:      154 cfs
25th percentile:  91 cfs
Lowest on record:  39 cfs, in 1939.
Current flow:  43  cfs

It's ridiculous, the amount of texts asking if the gym is closed or if they should cancel their plans today..

It may be legit. It’s an elevated anemomter on the SE shore. 

I was there on the bluffs .hugely exposed to NE winds directly off the ocean. Has to be 200 ft above the ocean.

Sunny and not even windy.  Really nice day

seriously you know a few would, especially the ones that FaxWX doesn't advise

Just been dumping moisture in waves here since yesterday eve. Nothing out of the ordinary in the wind department as we’re used to that kind of thing along the coast. It’ll be interesting to see how long the power holds up as especially with all the rain that’s yet to come. 

[Torch Tiger]

Exactly what time is this storm expected to be underway?

[dendrite]

NE MA choking on Scoot’s exhaust all morning. This would’ve been entertaining in winter.

[Snowedin]

And there go the lights..right on cue lol

Suck it up. The pilgrims lived without power. You're part of the softening of society.

A few leaves came by the window. Heading out now to board them up.

Embedded thunderstorms in the current "band" moving through SE CT. 

Strong winds aloft on radar but nothing particularly impressive yet. 

 

[WxWatcher007]

Down to 986mb as of 12z analysis. Looks like it shed the cold front, but still has the warm frontal boundary so obviously not subtropical. 

[CTWeatherFreak]

I know its not tropical, but the clouds appear to be wrapping around  what could be termed  an 'eye like feature', or so it seems

[wx_observer]

Pretty robust looking storm, despite all the underwhelmed naysayers...

Easy there brother. We've become used to it from nearly every coastal storm that just happens to graze by us to the one nearly five years ago that brought total destruction to our neighborhood. And we’ve become just as used to our town forgetting our neighborhood even exists on the map.

[weatherwiz]

Outside of the coast inland areas don't get another pulse of a stronger LLJ until tonight. At that point its just a matter of how well we're mixing. But this seems to be going about par thus far. 

[CT Rain]

Eversource up to 20k out in CT. 

 

The distribution is pretty cool with nothing at all in t he valley.
