  1. Models did pretty well at handling QPF for Socal.
  2. Weenie alert issued for New England. Preposterous GFS runs possibly posted on Twitter over the coming days.
  3. In a pretty rugged area. Wonder if it triggered any landslides.
  4. Definitely wouldn't think the upcoming period will be totally dead
  5. Kinda looks like it's starting to orient more N to S, which would be bad news bears for whoever gets stuck under the band.
  6. The first real push of moisture of the main event making it's way into the high risk area. I would imagine the boiling hot waters of the Gulf of California will only intensify banding as the event progresses.
  7. Already flash flooding in southern Nevada
  8. May just miss peak. It's about to move over much cooler waters.
  9. Isla Socorro, which is about 80 miles East of where the center passed, recorded sustained winds of 45 mph and gusts of 70 mph
  10. Seems the inner core is still quite small
  11. Climo is beginning to work in our favor, about 2/3 of the time the prior two weeks are hotter than the upcoming two weeks.
  12. As much as it's disappointing to have missed the peak, this is vital data in terms of determining how quickly Hilary will regain strength. I suspect it's mixing out a bit of dry air ingested during the ERC and is just now starting to restrengthen, since the ERC completed several hours ago
  13. The San Diego WFO has never been under a day 3 high risk. The last day 1 high risk was Feb 14 2019
  14. Like like a plume of moisture (PRE? Atmospheric river?), could cause flash flooding well before Hillary arrives for the dry side of the divide
  15. ERC well underway. Seems to be going rather smoothly.
  16. Convection wrapped fully around the eye the past couple frames. Could easily be a major by 8pm
  17. The Salton sea averages 5-6 inches of rain per year and the saline body of water is highly toxic. Honestly not sure what a years worth of rain in 48 hours will do.
  18. Kathleen (1976)is a very good analog. Described as a 1 in 160 year event https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hurricane_Kathleen
  19. Pretty unbelievable honestly. I can't imagine more than a weak TS by the time it reaches CA, but could be a significant flood threat
  20. TFW the first TS landfall in the US this season could be San Diego.
  21. Current CAMs seem to suggest the morning MCS will be the main event (strong to borderline severe storms), with some scattered strong storms behind it. Usually these large MCS systems do put a damper on several storms later in the day, even if they clear out by mid morning.
  22. Seems like timing is the big question. May move through too early in the day. Parameters aren't as impressive either way, but a nice line of storms regardless.
