SNE May-hem

That was one of the best EUSWX thread for meso-scale analysis and icing climo in SNE.

:thumbsup:

I missed most of the second half after losing power for three days. Can't complain though compared to others in the area. And at the same time, lower Keene just got plain rain.

Gotta think some of those stations in wrn Maine are struggling right now. I see Greenville and company are 43, but some of those spots up at 1000ft might be closer to 40 or 41?

I like how MWN went from 30F with freezing rain last night to 44F now. Impressive this time of the year to see 44F at 6,200ft and colder air below that, during the middle of the day.

yeah there may be a few stations sitting at 40 or 41 right now. Maybe near Mercer and up higher elev near Jackman.

Speaking of the milford wx mesomap site, since I moved up here, I asked Paul to see if he could do a NNE map as well. Not sure if this is the final version (may still be working on it), but he honored my wish which I am thankful for. Love his temp mesomaps.

Sweet! Didn't know about that. Thanks for the link. I love the east wind downslope off the Whites into the upper valley.

A nice compliment to Scott's page... http://weirsonline.com/mesomap

I love that thread...picking up the discussion right as the 00z Dec 10, 2008 NAM run came out.

Ahh you had to post it didn't you? Lol, you just guaranteed that I get absolutely no work done this afternoon. I love getting sucked into past-event threads during the warm season. Come July I'll be looking through simple WINDEX threads just jonesing for some winter weather.

LOL from Mike wrt NAM on the Dec '08 icestorm...

"if it busts badly in the low levels...basically allowing lower resolution models to win out with cold air drainage...then I delete all my nam procedures off awips and toss it aside for good like yesterday's newspaper."

Of course we know it had the right idea, but I'm sure there were about 20-30 other instances where this statement could be repeated, since then.

this may be tedious for some, but it's interesting how the models are warming things aloft as the week progresses, yet we get no benefit beneath with this unrelenting marine cold death breath. WCB gets advected clear into Ontario around the N side of that mlv vortex as the week ages onward.

It may get a little better for some over areas like CT and srn cstl SNE perhaps Wednesday as far as temps go, but it still looks wet.

Yes it was. I was a newbie back then, but the talk leading up to, and also the post discussions, were just awesome.

It is hard to think of you as a newbie.

Trying to be productive during this miserable weather. Going to take awhile to warm the soil enough for my tomatoes. But I think the greens and lettuce are enjoying it. In the last 2 days have seeded about 1000+ sq ft for new grass and did some planting of perenniels. I had a flashback to two summers ago this morning...don't want a repeat of that. Hope we can get some sun and heat by the weekend...

That ice storm was my introduction to the first big New Hampshire winter. It was quite a scene and I was grateful to have a generator built into the house's systems. Hours and hours of rain with temps in the low to mid 20s if I recall correctly. Then a couple of weeks later 2.5 ft of snow. :)

Best sping eva!!! :sun: :sun: :sun: :sun:

Is this similar to May '09 at all? And was May of 2005 similar? Thanks, Will, for posting the eastern ice storm link

May '09 had some bad days in there, but it was not that bad of a month. We had a nice warm spell too near Memorial day. I think that's the airmass that caused the big severe hail just S of BOS. But once the calendar turned to June 2009, it was about 6 weeks straight of 60F and cloudy/rain showers.

"I'll be without power until Christmas if the 00z NAM verified."

That was true for some folks... pretty cool.

Yeah I think I made another comment later on that was something like "They'll be calling the national guard into ORH"....said it as sort of a joke, lol...then it turned out to be true, they actually did call in the national guard.

That thread plus the obs thread later on are two of my favorites on eastern. You could probably put 12/16/07 up there too.

i just spent about an hr re-reading that thread on the ice-storm from eastern. great discussion by the mets ..

wouldn't mind a repeat with surface temps 2-3 degrees colder (throw in a pre-existing 2' foot snowpack and have a repeat of Vd imby w/ 4" of pl a week after the icestorm.. now that would be a snowpack) :bike:

I would pay a dollar to see your bookmarks :guitar:

I had not looked at the "older" eastern stuff in a while. This is very entertaining. I know what I will be doing while proctoring MCAS (just kidding)

I did not realize that many of the mets on here saw it for what it was several days out...(or at least read the NAM the right way and it proved pretty much right on this).

This was before I discovered eastern

NWS BOX did almost perfect with their warnings. I think Ekster was the one that also converted the watches to warnings. The only spot they missed I think was Essex county MA. The lower dews just blitzed them and made up for any proximity to the ocean. I remember he left Kevin out of the warning much to his dismay, and it worked out perfect. 33-34F rainstorm down there after brief ice. :lol:
