Hoth

Cough.

If this were January, you know a certain someone would be in here saying it was a certainty. Latent heat release pumping the heights, WAR flexing, +PNA straight to Alaska and so on

Let the Great Patriots Blackout of 2019 commence!

HMON is a wicked soaka.

Road trip to ACK? Looks like a solid storm out there.

Baroclinic assist up here with the interaction with the trough most likely.

Sandy bottomed at like 939-940, for perspective. 1938 was 938mb I believe.

A lot of the Euro ensembles were that low this morning. Quite possible with an injection of baroclinic juice.

Eh, I think Scott may have been bang on the dot with his ob about dry air being an inhibitor today. Little getting going south of Albany.

I know you're being facetious, but it got me thinking, has NE ever had a PDS watch? I can't think of any, but my memory is not as encyclopedic as Will's.

A family friend of ours grew up on the northern shore of Long Island and actually took the ferry across to Bridgeport just as it was starting to get bad, on his way to boarding school at Deerfield. He said it was the most harrowing experience of his life to that date, and only superseded overall by his experience fighting in WWII and Korea. He thought the boat was going to sink the chop was so bad, and his chauffeur was so scared he was crying as they drove up the road to Hartford. Presumably, the eye passed right over or just west of him. Anyway, hell of a storm and something none of us is likely to see a repeat of.

Details are pretty sketchy given the time period, but it brushed OBX before landfalling somewhere around RI with a nearly 20 foot surge. It is believed to have been a Cape Verde system, from what I understand.

Wall to wall sunshine. Not a cloud to be seen.

Yeah based on sediment samples 1635 could've been a low end cat 4 apparently.

Nah. Doesn't mean we won't see a few tors though.

Kinda surprised this thread is so dead. Potent disturbance, remnant EML, solid shear, lapse rates and sufficient instability seem to augur well for severe today.

Plenty of sun this morning. Destabilization will not be an issue.

Man, some very intense members in there.

Happy hunting, dude!

I want my PRE. I was promised one from that POS last week and it did not deliver. I want Dorian to keep my grass growing and my mower busy until December.

No sleep for a week before something like that.

Paging Wiz. What say you about severe tomorrow? Decent shear and solid lapse rates/CAPE.

CBC used to do a pumpkinfest of sorts where people would come and smash up pumpkins for use in the brewing process. Not sure if they still do.

Chunks of granite just flying off the mountainside and pancaking houses in N Conway, like giants playing a game of marbles. Epic.

I'm just morbidly curious what kind of numbers the Mt Washington observatory would put up in a scenario like that.
