Funny you're complaining about Lee, and yes he does get out of hand sometimes, but where is all your good discussion on this event or past events? Oh wait, you're too busy going into the MA forum whining about ours. Got your glue ready to sniff?

That wasn't whining. That was self-deprecation.

No glue, but I do have some markers laying around if I need them.

But I've promised myself I won't get too engrossed this time.

(I never said anything about Tues. tornadoes... the point was that when SPC mentioned the possibility for tomorrow's event, it became even harder to resist being interested.)

ohh and don't be so srs... it's all in good fun.

the dry begets dry i believe was started by colin. With grothar's drought warnings in place by memorial day weekend it has transferred to him.

Now now, I was clearly wrong and I have stated this already in an earlier post but I am definitely not Colin. It was close call until a couple of weeks ago, believe me. But never wish for flooding rainstorms, because you might just get it one now. All it would take is a few more weeks of this sporadic but heavy rainfall events and just one tropical storm coming up the coast and hanging over us and bingo- another Irene and or Lee. The ground is saturated now, especailly in southern Lehigh and northern Bucks and Montgomery Counties. training t- storms tomorrow night will add to the misery.

My new saying, WET begets WET. a prolong - NAO will continue. Once it lifts out of the way- here come the TS

lol I don't think it was ever close. But Now I expect a drought to develop since your calling for monsoons to move in.

for those loving the Euro....just remember the heat will be back and it will be taking names and numbers in July

you can see the cool air is over by the end of the run and the heat bubble from the midwest is moving in....

Music to my ears! :thumbsup:

As for what happened to Colin, he was the biggest "Negative Nancy" the weather boards have ever seen. Can anyone imagine what his posts would have been like this past winter if he weren't banned?

Trying to see if traveling on Tuesday the 5th would be a good idea to see Venus transit the sun...?

Right now NOAA has us at a 30% chance of thunderstorms. Anyone want to chime in with different/supportive prognostications?

There's gonna be a cut off low sitting overhead. It's gonna be hit or miss.

I've been keeping my chin up since winter began last year, but all the fail is starting to give me a complex.

I just want to echo the compliments towards some of you guys for the analysis lately. I'm trying to dive into the details when I can, and gain better understanding of the concepts, so it's been really great from a "consumer" perspective. Thank yous will also come in the form of foamy adult beverages after our outing in a few weeks...;)

how accurate is google earth for elevation?

Is it best to use this or get an outside company to provide the data?

reason that I ask is that i am closing on a property in highland lake, NJ this week.

google puts the property at 1405-1435 in elevation.

Going to need to set up my weather equipment etc online.

[/quotethe

deal is done. maps put me at around 1410-1435 feet in elevation.

deeply concerned that I will become the step child of the Mt holly forecast zone other than Tobyhanna, PA.

hopefully the folk lore of elevation pays off in bonus snow. Obviously this is not Jay Peak, but this is all I could get for now.

Looking forward to thunderstorms again too.

Jealous.

I scoped out numerous properties. Highland Lakes seems to keep the rift raft out with the yearly lake dues etc.

i had to sweet talk the wife into the property...but she has come around due to the location & the local people we met etc. She was not pleased with the nearest mall down in Wayne.

June is looking more like March/April than March and April were. Is this pattern supposed to last through mid-month? Any ideas when summer actually returns (although in fairness I guess summer hasn't really started yet)? I'm tired of these ambiguous seasons. It's basically been a strange combination of them all without regards as to the actual calendar--how confusing.

You guys don't know ambiguity ;) We're gonna be lucky to hit 50 on Tuesday, with sub-freezing lows likely Tuesday night :shiver:
