  1. One thing to watch moving through the first week of September is the increasing likelihood for ridging to be centered more towards or just off the Southeast coast. For much of the last several weeks (At least) we've seen the ridging centered more Texas/New Mexico. This will open the room for widespread 80's and 90's in the typical hot spots and we probably become active with convective potential too given a westerly flow developing aloft.
  2. Let's get a Labor Day '98 redux but even more widespread
  3. yeah it sucks how relatively short in duration we get enjoyable weather. I mean 50's and 60's aren't bad but it's just so much more enjoyable to sit outside with shorts, plus when its into the 80's you can at least do water activities/beach. January though I don't mind...you're in prime winter/snow season so you just hope you can rack up winter events. The month I really despise is March. By the time March rolls around I am ready for consistent 70's. But March...and April can be dreadful and it feels like better weather will never come lol.
  4. Can't believe its already the end of August though. 15 days from the kick off the NFL regular season and 5 weeks until NHL kicks off. Not used to September regular season for hockey
  5. Could be some risk for a tornado or two on Thursday...probably favored across the Hudson but def have to watch into the CT Valley as well
  6. CAMs not showing much but I'm really curious to see if we can pop anything this afternoon. CAMs are more bullish to our northwest (which makes sense) but we're going to break out into some degree of sun (at least up to and WOR) and should destabilize rapidly. Mid-levels become rather dry, however, I don't think that would be a negative today because the llvls are quite moist so air rising rapidly would negate that a bit and this would also help strengthen downdraft potential. LCL and LFC are also relatively close throughout the day so it isn't going to take much to get parcels to really accelerate. Coverage isn't going to be widespread but any means but I think we'll see at least a few decent cells with 1-1.25" hail and strong wind gusts.
  7. Blows. At my great niece birthday party. Luckily much of then day was dry. Had a brief sprinkle around 2:45-3 but had been dry. Despite this being super light everything is wet. At least it’s not enough to stop the fire from going
  8. Been getting an annoying mist in Enfield for the past hour…maybe even a bit longer
  9. yup...but sooner or later we'll ramp up the summer heat into this region
  10. By 2036 a 90F day on June 30 will be a -2 for a daytime high at BDL
  11. Will be some nasty storms around Sunday if we can destabilize enough
  12. I feel like September is going to be quite the interesting month. There is still potential for us to get another surge of upper 80's and 90's for many but some signals too we could start seeing some stronger troughs sliding across Canada and northern tier of the country. That should yield some interesting weather chances
  13. I'd be curious if something similar has happened before...I would think it has (just not very common). This would be a good question for @OceanStWx I actually kind of like this and this falls in line with the new modifications to the SPC outlooks. As we become more knowledgeable in the area of severe weather and with advancements in technology and modelling I think it's a great idea to be able to try and narrow down areas of "greatest" potential within an overall larger area. I agree it can be confusing to emergency management and the public but this is where educating and communicating to emergency management and the public becomes critical.
