such a tease you are Mr. NAM

lol. i used the basketball analogy because of all of the bball chatter the other day. I couldnt tell you a thing about who plays where. Dont follow the sport.

So...........now lets all have a happy Friday and coast into a beautiful stretch of summer weather. Enjoy all. Got a busy day ahead, but cant wait to take the HD (and my wife...lol) out for dinner tonight.

its much like the saying we use in the winter....you cant shovel potential, or since there is so much sports talk of late (fine btw), its like the US mens basketball team.....lots of talent, but if they dont mix/jive well together....well you know the result.

Yeah that was a little spooky... Hope they are all ok.

Cloud cover throughout the day held temps down and having no sun was why I thought the widespread severe calls might be in a bit of trouble. Its like having a gallon of gasoline sitting right next to lighter. Without a mechanism to make the spark trigger.....its just a gallon of gasoline. Soon as I saw the clouds holding strong......I thought many calls for severe were in trouble. That's not a broadbrush call, just saying that I felt much of the LSV was going to have less action then was being called for. Sun creates heat...heat creates lift....lift creates spin/mixing...spin creates sparks..... tboomers. Extreme western and eastern areas had breaks of sun and enough energy/spark to fire off some action. I was watching the satellite loops and we were socked in early while SW and SE Pa had breaks in the deck. No chest thumping here....just had a hunch and went with it.

green ass cheeks w/ a crack in da middle...... told ya so.

looking at radar, im thinking you might get more than me as the asscrack looks to be headed right for me here in lanco...... go ahead...enjoy the visual.

i'd love to see what they look at during times like these.

guess they like this look eh?

I dont think anyone would argue that you or Blizz gets the honors. You 2 can fight it out....

complete with SNOOOWmaps?

need bigger boat....lol

you forgot our plain clothed brethren in my hood.

dude, make room for 2 in your Rouzerville Raft, cause I like the nam's and find them useful during the winter.

We could rename Hburg the asscrack of Pa. stuff to see on either side, but not much in between..... I'm Just Playin sorta..............

just like the 12k had yesterday...... HMMMMM

I'll wait for it like I wait for anafrontal snows.................................................................................................

yep....pre fontal w/ little/no sun....and frankly quite a thick cloud deck for much of the day here in the LSV. Maybe your area is different.

all good. i knew exactly what you were gettin at. In my noggin I can see how with all of these "boxes being checked off", how things might blossom overhead a bit, further enhancing rain totals in some buckets....hoping yours is one of em. I'm just not seeing the severe potential.

I kno you were....just playin which ya....lol

Yeah, i guess I shoulda stated gully washers, but I'd think some minor flash flooding if there is any enhancement like the bid dogs think there will be. Just another hunch.

now stop....he's one of us....but he's more of a realist like myself.

dp up to 79 here. Bit thick for sure. Id be more worried about flash flooding then bow echos.

then I guess time will tell. Sun is and always has been the biggest spark for creating instability and causing needed lift. Yes, there is more to it than that, but they are not as big of sparks IMO. Lower max temps, and no sun are 2 big empty boxes unchecked IMO. I'll stick w/ my call.....all good. If I'm wrong, I'm happy for you storm chasers. Enjoy. I want the rain (and we are getting it as I type), so its a win for me anyway.
