That area east of Albany is getting annihilated

Looks like Eastern Connecticut, Rhode Island and Southeast mass are up next for some good heavy downpours

I know, but today it looks exceptionally bad.

Still drunk?

I will say the rain over Southwest CT is not Uber heavy at least.

Look at the rain returns from BOX versus OKX. It’s quite the difference there.

Man why is BOX running so much “hotter” than OKX or any other radar.

Check out Albany radar. You can see that the flow just off the deck is coming in from the west north west right towards the Hudson Valley while it’s SE near and SE of Albany. Just a classic convergence corridor wringing out all this rain. Gonna be big-time issues there.

That said, they’ll be some enhancement when that moisture does make it into the upslope SE flow zones.

And Nam too far SE

The biggest totals will be west of them I think. I saw a lot of talk from many around here on TV about upslope and all that probably because hi res love to treat every 500’ hill as the Sierra. But it’s all about convergence as we spoke about. That area getting crushed is downsloped on SE flows. Atmosphere don’t care when there is a good convergence zone and moisture conduit off the deck.

Yeah for the entire system Hudson valley ftw. Low looks a little east of earlier guidance.

Here it comes for SWCT. Just as we suspected.

I still think he’ll get a decent drink. Although he can’t hate me for a 5 mile STD error. STD being Stein Deviation

Not sure there is an elevation component to this. These events usually are strictly convergence/frontal or meso low type deals.
