earthlight Posted February 25, 2011 Author Share Posted February 25, 2011 The storms should be here any moment now, looks pretty awesome on radar. Probably won't be severe, but it's a testament to the dynamics involved to see this kind of strongly forced line of convection. Really cool stuff.

bmc10 Posted February 25, 2011 Share Posted February 25, 2011 I thought I would be seeing a lot more rain, I guess the low passing right overhead can result in some dry slotting. As far as winds, strongest are probably the further east you go and out over LI. The storms are as I had imagined, a line developing along the front, watch out for winds to crank after the front clears. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pazzo83 Posted February 25, 2011 Share Posted February 25, 2011 Must be a crazy inversion over here in the city because it's not windy by me at all. I'm only 3 stories up. The windows are shaking big time. I'm 50 stories up so I'm guessing that is 900-1000 ft. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
