There's deeper low level moisture up here...not much dry air to mix down and dissipate the stratus.

I think there’s better mixing over the land which is helping to dry out the low levels and limit the easterly mank trying to advect in. That’s why you have the cloud line straddling the NJ shore too. But basically there’s enough land that makes up Long Island that the further west you get the more you’re able to take a bite out of that stratus.

Yup…sweet clearing behind this band of clouds coming in from the east. Even in the middle of it there’s breaks.

Yeah…sorta what I thought. I’ve seen this on social media quite a bit and how they try to “forecast” the migration (millions of birds per night) using what appears to be the ducting rings of clutter. It all seemed like voodoo to me. It’s like they’re using some kind of forecast prog algorithms to predict nightly inversions and say those areas have the highest migration rates. The real bird sigs are more random. It seems like something was lost in translation between the met/radar experts and the bird scientists/programmers.

Wish I didn’t see that. A little morning sun was fun while it lasted.

I feel like Ray. 45° while CT sucks too feels better than 60° while it’s 85° down there.

Happy husband appreciation day everyone. Just letting everyone know so your loved one doesn’t inform you about it until 10pm.

What were the highs the last few days down there? Whenever I look I see low 50s from BOS to GHG.

Unless he turns into fungalstein again

45.2° FG It’s thicc out there

Maybe I can finally get a birthday snowstorm.

@radarman I see this bird migration stuff from CornellLab a lot and I see UMass-Amherst as one of the contributors. Are they honestly using ground clutter from radiation inversions for this? That’s the impression I get from their daily tracking loops and examples. I thought maybe you would know more. https://birdcast.org/a-primer-for-using-weather-surveillance-radar-to-study-bird-migration/

62F Nice mild night. Bugs are out and peepers are peeping.

Looks great

High 73F Beautiful afternoon
