ORH's record is 66 I think and the other records are 68-69F, so I think records are likely at most stations today. 65.5 imby low of 32.7 at 8:20 this morning to 56.0 at 11:20 ~23 degree temp rise in an 3 hours is pretty neat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
weatherMA Posted March 12, 2012 Share Posted March 12, 2012 The 12z gfs looks even colder then the nam for Thursday...or at least just as cool. Mid 40s. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Logan11 Posted March 12, 2012 Share Posted March 12, 2012 The weekend backdoor isn't much of a factor for GC to here on the GFS. Still plenty mild...though the heatwave as it were ..is a Midwest affair through the weekend. Then it moves in here and we sizzle (March style next week).

I still don't completely buy the GFS op for next week. I'd feel better for banana hammocks out by CLE or ORD. It will be mild..maybe 1 day very mild, but jsut seeing high pressure practically overhead usually means mild, just not uber warm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Logan11 Posted March 12, 2012 Share Posted March 12, 2012 I see it does have a very major backdoor for later next week. Winter shot for the Maritimes.

Off the bay and off the sound - that's how light the flow is. As backward as it seems, I think today is part of the reason I don't like spring...such a tease to have days like this.

Typhoon Tip Posted March 12, 2012 Author Share Posted March 12, 2012 Very much in a agreement with Will... In fact, would not shock me if the entire warm picture that characterized this week ends up in jeopary, as perhaps today and tomorrow end up the best the week may offer. The 12z operational GFS is still hitting the pervasive 582dm height circumvalla/node pretty hard for it's day 7-9.5 or so; we'll have to see what the other guidance does with that. This type of height presentation by the GFS is much more capable of fending off "dents" in the ridge that can awash the area with cool air masses drilling from the N/E. You can't drive a quasi close low SE out of Maine without consequence, and the Euro (last night) followed that up with actualy 6 hour noreaster of all things by diving in with that spurious vort max just after (Sat). I wouldn't be shocked if that evaporates on this run. Either way, sufficed it is to say, the weak gradient 575dm heights ridge is a unsafe in March - duh.

It's just never good to have the warmth shoved due north into Husdon Bay. The resulting pattern here is usually cooling BDF or seabreezes. I think this will be the best day for quite some time. At least into part of next week anyways. Edit: I more or less mean for warmth. It's still a mild pattern for sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we can keep ti relatively dry through the duration of the torch it will be an epic fire season by New England standards. People out this way will burn brush regardless of how dry it is.

The snow is retreating quickly from the roadsides (full sun near dark tar) and it can't take too much longer at these temps for other grass to make its appearance.

Logan11 Posted March 12, 2012 Share Posted March 12, 2012 Hah ..This whole conversation about back door's etc. pretty much illustrates why SNE doesn't get much of any severe until May usually.

CoastalWx Posted March 12, 2012 Share Posted March 12, 2012 72 in TAN right now. 69 in BOS. Another MOS FTL today. Best time to beat MOS, is this time of year. I thought BOS could get a very weak seabreeze, but they haven't yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
