As noted as a concern in the the SPC disco below, the MCS heading toward the HV is decaying over the last 60 minutes

DAY 1 CONVECTIVE OUTLOOK

NWS STORM PREDICTION CENTER NORMAN OK

0737 AM CDT MON JUL 18 2011

VALID 181300Z - 191200Z

...THERE IS A SLGT RISK OF SVR TSTMS FROM PORTIONS OF THE UPPER

GREAT LAKES AND OH VALLEY EWD INTO NEW ENGLAND AND THE MID ATLANTIC

STATES...

...THERE IS A SLGT RISK OF SVR TSTMS ACROSS PARTS OF THE NRN

PLAINS...

...NERN U.S...

THE ESEWD PROGRESSION OF MULTIPLE MIDLEVEL IMPULSES WILL

COLLECTIVELY LOWER HEIGHTS ACROSS THE REGION THROUGH THE D1

PERIOD...DOWNSTREAM FROM EXPANSIVE CNTRL U.S. ANTICYCLONE. COLD

FRONT CURRENTLY FROM THE ST. LAWRENCE VALLEY WWD INTO THE UPPER

GREAT LAKES WILL PROGRESS SEWD TO OFF THE NEW ENGLAND AND MID

ATLANTIC COASTS BY 19/12Z. PERSISTENT WLY LOW-LEVEL FLOW AHEAD OF

FRONT WILL SERVE TO ENHANCE THE FLUX OF AN INCREASINGLY WARM AND

HUMID AIR MASS INTO THE AREA FROM THE OH VALLEY.

LOOSELY ORGANIZED MCS OVER UPSTATE NY WILL LIKELY CONTINUE SEWD THIS

MORNING...THOUGH UNCERTAINTY EXISTS WHETHER THIS COMPLEX WILL

INTENSIFY BY LATE MORNING/EARLY AFTERNOON...OR UNDERGO DIURNAL

DECAY. IN ADVANCE OF THIS ACTIVITY...DAYTIME HEATING COUPLED WITH

LOW-LEVEL MOIST ADVECTION FROM THE W WILL YIELD AFTERNOON MLCAPE

APPROACHING 1000-2000 J/KG. AS SUCH...EXPECT THE INTENSIFICATION OF

ANY STORMS THAT CAN PERSIST THROUGH THE MORNING...AS WELL AS SUPPORT

THE DEVELOPMENT OF ADDITIONAL STORMS ALONG PRE-EXISTING OUTFLOW

BOUNDARIES AND COLD FRONT ITSELF.

EXIT REGION OF 100+ KT UPPER-LEVEL JET STREAK WILL GRADUALLY DEVELOP

SEWD FROM ONTARIO...ENHANCING DEEP-LAYER SHEAR FOR BOWING LINE

SEGMENTS AND SUPERCELLS CAPABLE OF MAINLY DAMAGING WINDS AND PERHAPS

SOME HAIL.

DAY 1 CONVECTIVE OUTLOOK

NWS STORM PREDICTION CENTER NORMAN OK

1128 AM CDT MON JUL 18 2011

VALID 181630Z - 191200Z

...THERE IS A SLGT RISK OF SVR TSTMS THROUGH LATE EVENING FROM THE

UPPER MIDWEST TO SRN NEW ENGLAND...

...THERE IS A SLGT RISK OF SVR TSTMS THIS AFTERNOON INTO TONIGHT FOR

THE NRN PLAINS...

...PA/NY/NEW ENGLAND TODAY...

A SERIES OF EMBEDDED SPEED MAXIMA WILL MOVE ESEWD FROM SWRN

ONTARIO/SRN QUEBEC ACROSS NY/PA AND NEW ENGLAND TODAY...WHILE AN

ASSOCIATED SURFACE COLD FRONT PROGRESSES SWD/SEWD TO THE SAINT

LAWRENCE VALLEY BY THIS EVENING. FARTHER S...MORNING CONVECTION IS

WEAKENING ACROSS SE NY/MA...BUT SUBSTANTIAL DEBRIS CLOUDS WILL

LIKELY REMAIN DURING THE DAY ACROSS NEW ENGLAND. REGIONAL 12Z

SOUNDINGS SHOW POOR LAPSE RATES ALOFT...AND THE STRONGER INSTABILITY

IS LARGELY CONFINED TO AREAS FROM THE UPPER OH VALLEY WWD. THERE

WILL BE SOME DESTABILIZATION ACROSS SRN NEW ENGLAND IN ADVANCE OF

THE WEAKENING CONVECTION...AND ACROSS WRN/CENTRAL PA IN ADVANCE OF A

CONVECTIVELY ENHANCED VORT MAX MOVING SEWD OVER LAKE ERIE. SOME

INCREASE IN STORM COVERAGE/INTENSITY IS EXPECTED THIS AFTERNOON FROM

PA TO SRN NEW ENGLAND...WHERE MLCAPE WILL RANGE FROM 500-1000 J/KG

ACROSS SE NEW ENGLAND TO 1500 J/KG ACROSS CENTRAL/WRN PA. LARGELY

UNIDIRECTIONAL PROFILES WITH DEEP-LAYER WNWLY/NWLY SHEAR COULD

SUPPORT A FEW ORGANIZED CLUSTERS/LINE SEGMENTS CAPABLE OF PRODUCING

DAMAGING WINDS.

FARTHER N...LINGERING BOUNDARY LAYER MOISTURE IN ADVANCE OF THE

SYNOPTIC COLD FRONT COULD SUPPORT RENEWED THUNDERSTORM DEVELOPMENT

THIS AFTERNOON ALONG ACROSS NRN NY/VT/NH. HOWEVER...MODEST

INSTABILITY AND WEAKER VERTICAL SHEAR COMPARED TO AREAS FARTHER SW

/ALONG THE CORRIDOR OF STRONGER MIDLEVEL NWLY FLOW/ WILL KEEP THE

WIND DAMAGE THREAT MARGINAL.

We were hit good last night IMBY.. Very heavy rain, wind, lots of CTG lightning. I mowed my rain gauge with the lawn tractor :axe: but I'd guessamate we had 1 inch or more during that storm. It came down too hard to be absorbed in to the ground and just ran off in drainage ditches.

Only .08" IMBY but what a light show while I drove home from New WIndsor on 207, very cool.

It may be hot out-but at least we don't have to shovel hot!:thumbsup::snowman::devilsmiley:

Woke up this morning to a brief rain shower-barely enough to do anything here in Southern Dutchess. All it did was prep it to be down right muggy and hot later. Stay cool!:sizzle:

78.2 / 70. Never thought I would be saying this just yet, but I am looking forward to the winter. No rain here overnight, but hopefully we can get some over the next couple days.

HAH I start looking forward to winter by mid June usually. ;)

The upside of this hot period is that this is at the pinnacle of the warm season and you know it is steadily downhill from here. I find the hot wx much more depressing when it comes early like in June. This is the hottest mother nature can throw at us...direct discharge of that plains heat. It's gonna heat up again later week, but won't be as bad.

I would bypass winter altogether if I could. Black ice and I don't get along since I broke my ankle in 3 places and dislocated it two winters ago. I will keep the warm weather for as long as it will stick around. :sizzle: I wouldn't mind a few rains storms to come through-but it always ends up feeling more muggy this time of year when they do.

All-time record high Lake Erie water temperature off Buffalo tied. The water temperature reached 80 degrees this morning, tying the record set August 14-16, 1988. Records began in 1927.

http://www.erh.noaa....s/laketemps.php

Other water temperatures include 81 at Erie, 75 at Cleveland, 77 at Toledo, and 79 at Belle Isle, MI. Buoy 45005, 35 miles NW of Cleveland, was reading 80 this morning; Buoy 45132 off Port Stanley was reading 79; and Buoy 45142 off Port Colburne was at 78.

Hmmm, I wonder what the lake effect season will be like this winter because of this..... not that it matters much for IMBY as all we ever get is a stray brief squall that leaves a coating under the very best conditions.

Favored areas are gonna get buried this yr.. And I would think an early season LE event is in the cards this yr.

1. You must not work outside.

2. Who in their right mind, would enjoy these temps? You cant even walk outside and breathe for christ sake!

3. To shovel cold, is very hard.

I'm a contractor and I work outside 95% of the time. I have worked in some of the most extreme conditions our area has to offer. I will say this, I would hands down, work in 10 degrees with the wind blowing, than 100, humid and sunny. Hell with that!!!

Not to mention, I was in the army for several years, and have expeirenced far worse conditions than 100 and sunny of course. It's still hell no matter what, if outside all day!
