DeltaT13

We really needed strong diurnal mixing to take this event to the next level. Timing was off by a hair. Rochester seems to have dodged the bullet.

The real front looks to be near Erie Pa.

haha, you need patience with this. Wait until the Cold air advection starts and lapse rates steepen up. You aint seen nothing yet

Here it comes. Thats a nasty little low topped bow echo plowing towards metro buffalo. Things are really going to start with a bang.

Yes but only certain things like the point and click map. Other things work fine.

Some thunder rolling here. Pounding rain though. Dog is glued to me. Heading out soon to gather the rest of the supplies and gas.

This wind event is somewhat unprecedented. Never in my life do I remember a wind event predicted this far out, with these kind of wind speeds. Every record event from the last 20 years was more or lesss unexpected. 1998 derecho was a rogue storm that no one saw coming until it was on radar 1/9/08 was supposed to be a high wind event but a low topped derecho caught us off guard and took it to another level. 3/8/17 was supposed to be windy but nowhere near apocalyptic Any other wind storm from the last 20 years is just the typical gusts to 60 type of stuff that is fairly routine This is certainly unique and will be very interesting to watch unfold. If these winds don’t verify the poor nws will take it on the chin as the hype is nearly off the charts. If they do verify there will be damage like we haven’t seen in a very very long time.
