dendrite Posted July 5, 2011 Share Posted July 5, 2011 We will be warmer than Joe?!? I might tickle 90 but probably 87-88 next 2 days Friday looks perfect 6z MAV has 95F for ASH tomorrow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HoarfrostHubb Posted July 5, 2011 Share Posted July 5, 2011 6z MAV has 95F for ASH tomorrow. We are almost done building our heat shelter. The 10,000 gal cistern is mostly full. We have issued rations and should be entering it at 0900z God help those in this heat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tropopause_Fold Posted July 5, 2011 Share Posted July 5, 2011 not intending to pimp my own stuff but new site is finally done...not really built with weenies in mind but added a couple of products for the more weather-inclined individual...thought this link below might be useful along with the dewpoint ones etc. (linked under "current weather") that are listed there. you can zoom in, scroll around etc. the GE plugin tends to be a little buggie though so use caution if clicking on individual obs sites. sometimes it'll load, sometimes it just stops running. this is essentially an interactive version of the pdfamily one. http://www.capecodweather.net/mesonet-temperatures/ also if you scroll down, the HPC precip forecasts zoomed into SNE in GE/kml also available.

wxmanmitch Posted July 5, 2011 Share Posted July 5, 2011 I wouldn't be at all surprised if we see a pop up t-storm or two somewhere in eastern MA, SE NH, or S ME. Dew points are still quite high in that area and there is some lingering convergence. Add to that a developing sea breeze front and we have another mechanism for popping something up. It won't be widespread but someone could get dumped on good later. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tropopause_Fold Posted July 5, 2011 Share Posted July 5, 2011 Nice site Phil. Did you do all of that yourself? thx. no not all of it. different pieces and sections.

Add to that a developing sea breeze front and we have another mechanism for popping something up. It won't be widespread but someone could get dumped on good later. yeah some of the mesos have some storms in e areas today. was thinking combo of surface heating/dews/some seabreeze boundaries might be enough for someone. Taking AmericanWx by storm. That's awesome...nice job. thanks man. took a long time. still have a few things to add here and there but just figured might as well launch and then just add on. found some cool teleconnector stuff that i'm trying to figure out how best to incorporate.

Damage In Tolland Posted July 5, 2011 Share Posted July 5, 2011 Kevin already has the dewpoint link in his favorites. Yup..it's number one..I bumped out the nude male site you sent me. What happened to the low dews ? Still mostly in the 60's everywhere . I'm convinced the ASOS sensors are too low on dews . The home stations are always higher..and since most people live where there's foliage..would seem to be more accurate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tropopause_Fold Posted July 5, 2011 Share Posted July 5, 2011 Kevin already has the dewpoint link in his favorites. it's pretty humid still out this way. hoping it's enough to fire off a t-storm. lol. was thinking this morning though, we still haven't really had any real humid weather. highest dews we've had have been 68-71 type stuff. none of that horrendous 74-78 type air we seem to pull off every once in a while.

Yeah dews are pretty moist out that way. BOS TD dropped to 57 with a temp of 84, so possibly the dews may mix out a bit over the interior as the temp warms, but might be enough moisture for a few shwrs or iso tstm. Maybe we have the classic east coast seabreeze meeting the south coast seabreeze to fire off a tstm down by Wareham..lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Different type of humidity sensors. In the morning the home stations are more prone to spikes. ASOS is much more accurate. I believe they use the Humicap technology from Vaisala.Winds are fairly light right now so once the westerlies kick in we'll mix some drier air down.

The home stations are always higher..and since most people live where there's foliage..would seem to be more accurate. in the sense of that's where people sit and hang out, i guess there's an argument to be had there. it's like certain people's backyards are cooler simply because they have more shade than someone else. but if you got above the trees a bit or into a field or whatnot...or people place actual hygrometer/psychrometers where they are supposed to be placed...asos is reality.

I understand your argument, but those meso sites are prone to the high evapotranspiration that occurs locally near the ground. Those locally higher dews will get mixed out pretty easily. After a decent rad cooling night with a rapid morning warmup there can be a little condensation that forms on the home sensors...especially with calm winds. Then there is the rapid evaporation of the dew that forms and the ET you mentioned. Most of the home sites are probably a little more humid, but it's a little overdone in the morning.

It's also the reason why the countrysides tend to be cooler since ET is a latent cooling process. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then there is the rapid evaporation of the dew that forms and the ET you mentioned. Most of the home sites are probably a little more humid, but it's a little overdone in the morning. Even in places like where my folks live, it feels really humid during the early morning and again in the evening as they are surrounded by dense woods...and you can almost smell that moist/damp air coming in from the woods. But if indeed we had large areas of ET affecting the sensors and adding about 5 degrees to the dewpoint, then we would see this result in the metars like they do in Des Moines IA and places like that.
