weatherwiz Posted May 16, 2011 Share Posted May 16, 2011 It seems like the vortex associated with the +NAO pattern is too far south; we had a major heat ridge in the Plains/Midwest last week with 90s in Chicago, and yet all we got was a couple days around 70F with northerly flow behind that cut-off. It naturally takes longer for us to warm as Northeast Canada/Greenland are the places that hold their cold longest, but I hope this cut-off can move far enough offshore to allow those 582dm heights over the Mid-Atlantic to move northward as the Euro shows Day 9-10. 12z ECM did back off the heat a little bit as earlier runs had a full-fledged heat wave with 20C 850 temps. I just want my fanny pounded hard for my friends and family to see. My friend says he'll bring his 7-8'' here this Sunday. Getting there. No words.

Typhoon Tip Posted May 16, 2011 Share Posted May 16, 2011 The sun just didn't come out. It only lasted for 3 or 4 minutes, ....bookended by an eternity of solid sock-in clouds and cold rain, but at least it didn't just come out. 47/46 R Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flying MXZ Posted May 16, 2011 Share Posted May 16, 2011 I'm getting out of here and heading out to my cousins southeast of BUF Thur-Sat. Hopefully that far west it won't be as bad by then. I'm heading to Tennesse this weekend, looking like mid 80's there this weekend. It will be too hot for me, but better than this weather. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ORH_wxman Posted May 16, 2011 Share Posted May 16, 2011 My favorite low maximum temp in the record books looking at the upcoming week has to be 39F on May 21, 1990. How brutal is that? lol. Most of the records are in the mid 40s, but a random 39F on the 21st. That is horrendous. Tomorrow's record is 46F. We'll need to keep rain falling most of the day to get a shot at that.

40/70 Benchmark Posted May 16, 2011 Share Posted May 16, 2011 Get that garbage troughiness in the maritimes of NE Canada out of here. Its going to be tough to build a lot of heat into New England with that there. It tends to get stuck to our west and southwest in those setups. We can get better weather than this disaster, but full heat ridges can't get in here until that general pattern goes away. I'd plant it there through Colombus day if I could....this wx fine by me...so comfy. 47.1\46 R- Keep it coming. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoastalWx Posted May 16, 2011 Share Posted May 16, 2011 Temp down to 48.0 now with a heavier shwr having moved through. I'm gonna pull a moneypitmike and say that I never got to 50.0F today, even though technically the high would be 50F. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Typhoon Tip Posted May 16, 2011 Share Posted May 16, 2011 Well, you can clearly see the last vort lobe of this menace tucking into the bottom of the eastern U.S. trough as we type... This feature will cut to almost the coastal plain overnight, then start the arguous and tedious untimely journey NW around the N wall of the vortex thereafter... Look for a solid 60 hours of weather that makes you want to smack cameron diaz in the face while it does so. Once it gets up near western PA in circa 48 hours, it will also be absorbing into the neutrality of the surrounding medium and vanishing altogether... leaving a cool core with no DPVA at the heart. These things are analogous to black holes in that way. Anyway, as that mlv wind max pivots up the coast through tomorrow it will probably bring another more cohesive dose of wind and rain with it, after which ... we settle into the coastal schits for another 36 -48 hours. Gosh, we wouldn't trade New England for anywhere else in the world! I bet for sea-level there is no other place in the N hemisphere that will objectively ranks us ****ty as it will right here, this week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
