Ice Warrior commander Posted May 19, 2011 Share Posted May 19, 2011 48.5F and complete fog and rain. Ceilings low for the past 3 days. Duration of the low TT's and the RA,DZ and FG with the persistant low ceilings is pretty neat. Keeping my climatic data daily to compare to previous years. Last spring makes this seem more extreme. This is good coming off of a 90" plus snow season. I am noticing central mass seems to be the coolest area, with CQX making it to 68F today. Ct. RVR Valley milder as well. Fetch from the NE off the Gulf of ME and CAD banking up aganist the central hills FTW. BOS Max TT only 53F and BVY only 51F as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
weatherwiz Posted May 19, 2011 Share Posted May 19, 2011 3z SPC SREF coming out now but it will probably be another 45 minutes or so before it gets through today's hours. I'd like to stay up but I should sleep. I forgot I want to go into work tomorrow around noon and I should get some rest so I can continue get over this cold or whatever I had.

ski MRG Posted May 19, 2011 Share Posted May 19, 2011 50/50, fog and drizzle. BOX's forecast gets even more grim. Next shot at sunshine is Wednesday of next week. Day after day of murck. Blizz's rosey torch forecast for all of next week is looking like a pipe dream. I'll blame the over-exposure to Lesco products for his poor judgement.

moneypitmike Posted May 19, 2011 Share Posted May 19, 2011 Another day of clouds, showers, and cool temps. Makes me think of the the epic winter week that was modeled two winters ago showing a low stalled off the cape. I think it showed about 5" of qpf over the course of 7 days Too bad that one couldn't come to pass! 51.3/51 3.57" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Friday and more especially Saturday and Sunday are going to have periods of sunshine, on Saturday there should be clouds around in the morning but by mid to late morning they should break up leading to periods of sun but during the afternoon clouds should be on the increase (more in the way of cumulus rather than nimbostratus type) as afternoon heating coupled with cold air aloft and some lift lead to the development of clouds. There should even be some widely scattered showers and t'storms around as well during the afternoon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

weatherwiz Posted May 19, 2011 Share Posted May 19, 2011 That forecast doesn't look bad at all...I think that's pretty close to perfect spring weather, temps into the 60's to near 70°F. I really wouldn't worry all too much about the shower threats after Friday/Saturday. The shower threats for Monday-Wednesday I don't think are much...I would think 99% of those days will be dry. At least down this way up until this week this really has not been a bad spring at all. I only had one baseball game rained out, usually by this time I've had 2-3, it was fairly warm out for the most part as well...all I've had to wear was a long-sleeved shirt...sometimes my sweatshirt under that which isn't bad by my standards as I'm someone who gets very cold real easily. Once we just get through these next few days though the weather will become much more pleasant and it will be much more enjoyable being outdoors.

HoarfrostHubb Posted May 19, 2011 Share Posted May 19, 2011 Sadly, this great weather will one day end. In the meantime, enjoy it! So many people I know are so crabby about this. Why? I don't get it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well it does blow for outdoor activities and who likes cool weather like this? You just cramp up and if you're outside and getting wet you get the chills and it takes forever to warmup.

weatherwiz Posted May 19, 2011 Share Posted May 19, 2011 I think tomorrow and Saturday have a better shot at that..but small chance today I guess It's a tough call I think, today we have much better dynamics to work with, more in the way of moisture, and lift will be stronger. By tomorrow/Saturday we lose a great deal of dynamics and I don't think the instability be will be nearly enough to compensate for updraft strength. Also, the strength of the lift will be much weaker. At least with today we much more in the way working for us...elevated instability should be greater, even potential for a bit more in the way of sfc-based instability. Dynamics are not screaming strong but certainly strong enough, and lift is not bad. Neither of these days are going to feature widespread action anyways.

weatherwiz Posted May 19, 2011 Share Posted May 19, 2011 More heating Fri and Sat. Think Fri is biggest threat day Dews may not be that high on Friday, not as high as today so that will limit the amount of instability that develops...also there might not be much in the way of moisture to work with.

CT HAS BEEN CRUSHED Based on what I've watched on radar the last couple days, I'm surprised I'm so close to you (3.58"). Most of what came after Sunday here has fallen at night, so I guess that's why I'm surprised. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
