  1. 74/57 Looking on the south horizon I see those towers going up in CT and can even see the cirrus outline of the storms down towards NYC. Later this week that SE low moves up towards New England and merges with a low north of the Great Lakes. I was noticing that as the storm moves up the Saint Lawrence River area as it deepens down to 995mb (29.38) on the 18Z GFS. For a July low pressure system that is not tropical that seems quite low. Anyone know how unusual that is for this time of year? Whatever happens looks like a tropical airmass for New England.
  2. Nice trends today for the tropical low. It's over land right now but the GFS and Euro bring it up the coast and possibly to the west of New England late week. Not expecting a tropical storm or anything like that but the Euro has it at 1005mb as it comes up the coast and deepens it to 1002mb in New York state. That would give us high tropical humidity, downpours and a nice south breeze. Good for areas that have missed convection rains the past week or so.
  3. Looking for the CV thread. I see it got taken away. Damn. I would skim that thread to get so much useful info. There should have been a discussion first before taking it down. Yeah it got political and nasty but was great info. I say put it back up please?
  4. Happy 4th NNElanders.... Question. I happen to look at the Mt Washington webcam and noticed that there is still quite a bit of snow in Tuckerman's Ravine. I remember as a kid in the 1960's that there was an article in the Boston Globe about the fact that some snow made it all the way through summer up there. I wonder what the usual "snowout" day is on the mountain? Anyone have a clue? Oh, I noticed that sunset tonight for my region of Central NH is 832pm. Tomorrow we loose a minute with sunsets. Sunrises have been getting later for a couple of weeks now. Still a couple of weeks away from the climatological peak of temperatures.
  5. Caught this rainbow with the moon in it. What are the chances of that?
  6. Nice thunderstorm passing over Newfound Lake NH. I just got .58" past half an hour. Now up to 3.25" for ULL total Video of thunderstorm passing over (and my lawn guy getting down fertilizer just before it passes. https://video.nest.com/clip/a0ff3167665646ab8aa507aa81dfc3b0.mp4
  7. About .07" today after .17" yesterday. The 1/4" of rain over the past 24 hours came in various showers, very light rain and drizzle so pavement under trees is still dry. Another batch to my east looks to make a run at me later this evening Bit over 3/4" in last 6 weeks
  8. Noon 68F Sprinkles About .04" this morning. Up to .21" storm total.
  9. Another dry day for me. Flash flood warnings 5 miles to my north and storms to the south. Shooting the gaps perfectly so far.
  10. Models the past couple of days shifted south and kept Central NH high and dry. I'm surprised to see the rain area being so far north. Looking at radar I would at least get some rain this afternoon. Models say no
  11. I may have told this story on the board a few years back but thunderstorms with lots of lightning brought back this memory. I'm 63. When I grew up in Baltimore in the 1960's and eary 70's there was no weather radar. Other than hourly obs it was very hard to tell where thunderstorms were. Most phone calls were long distance so a phone call of 50 miles was long distance and charged to your phone. Transistor radios were very popular and on the AM dial 530 was a great place to listen for the distinct static that lightning produced. So I would listen intently in the afternoons to the frequency and how loud the static were and if they were getting louder or softer. That gave me a crude way of forecasting storms although I never knew exactly where they were. I kept a chart and called them "SPM's" statics per minute. Okay, too much weenie info but I was "that weird kid" when it came to getting excited about severe or unusual weather
  12. Has anyone ever seen a storm produce this much lightning? What would make a storm produce this amount? Amazing video.
  13. Total miss for me today. I'll take the GFS's 1.75" for me this weekend.
  14. Missed morning rain. Will mid day stuff fire too for to the SE? Looks like it might. .55" since May 15th looks like it may stand.
  15. Still only .55" since May 15th. Hoping for rain on Wednesday. Nice thunderstorms in N Vermont casting a shadow over NH cool look vis image this evening. Went up to my view site up the road overlooking Newfound Lake and can see the tops of the anvils in Central NY as the sunsets. Always neat to see how far you can see with CuB tops.
  16. Lawn question..... if your lawn turns completely brown from drought will it come back? I don't mean kinda burnt out but totally brown. I am loosing the battle even with watering and the well can't produce enough water so parts are now completely dead. I guess the answer is yes because that is what it does in the winter. We always get periods of dryness and had that drought several years ago but this year the drought has started earlier. Thoughts?
  17. That morning thunderstorm probably screwed me for any rain today. 82.5F under the drying up cirrus anvil. Nice to see towering Cu going straight up with the light winds aloft. It's like the tropics in that regard
  18. Lots of thunder to my SE. Anvil just east of the sun so it's very dark looking. Slowly drifting in my direction 80.5/66
  19. .55" last 36 days. Watching cell to my SE. With developing sea breeze would these slowly migrate west or northwest? Someone is getting lots of rain while they basically sit
  20. 95F Roberval Quebec north of Quebec City. Looking at the satellite visible big fire started this afternoon up there. Even pyrocumulous cloud going up. Don't see that too often in S/C Quebec.
