Ah...is the deformation band where the 100% rh is over NY?

No, sorry I got pulled away for a few minutes.

Deformation refers to a wind field that changes the shape of a fluid through stretching or shearing. It is a feature that contributes to frontogenesis. In the image I posted there is noticeable stretching deformation, aligned from western CT to western MA into western NH.

If you know geometry or trig well, think of a family of hyperbola as the streamlines and compare to what you see in the image.

Only 20 more minutes....before dead zone ends...and we rock into the night....or not...

Yeah, the dead zone is interminable. Just sitting watching the temp drop, -8* currently. I have nothing to worry about since Kev promised 18-24" for the East Slope but I thought I'd watch anyway.lol
