Substantial drought relief rains en-route?

as the low level boundary starts to retreat back to the NW across SNE sunday afternoon/night...it creates a really impressive low level temp gradient / tight baroclinic zone first over SE zones then really tightening over CT/C MA. run that powerhouse 60-70 knot LLJ up into that, carrying +1-2.5 SD pwats with it...you can really soak some areas.

Yeah exactly. Could see a rumble of thunder too.

Yeah, awesome setup - this would be a beaut midwinter... expect a wall of pretty pastel colors on radar coming onshore from the water.

This thing has the making for very heavy rain in a short period of time along and just NW of the track. Theta-e bomb that will wring out all the moisture along a strong low level convergence zone. Has the making of classic banding and heavy rain in a narrow area. Classic.

yeah a lot of ingredients coming together as depicted today.

transitioning from a steady -rn/rn to several of hours of really heavy stuff..maybe some embedded thunder.

you can already kind of picture in your head how the RADAR will look and evolve.

yeah it's kind of funny...if it works out as everything seems to be suggesting right now...someone in the interior will go from dusty roads and wildfires to some small stream and/or urban area flooding. :lol:

Would be better if we had a longer period of steady rains to wet the ground, sudden heavy would run off the rock hard dirt. at any rate its a start.

yeah i hear ya.

thankfully it won't just be like a summer t-storm though. between sat night and sun eve there should be off/on showers...then probably a steady rain for a while before a slug of heavy duty stuff moves through parts of the area. the comment about flooding is more tongue in cheek than anything.

of course, this all assumes the current evolution is for real.

My forecast from ALY:

Sunday: A chance of rain. Mostly cloudy, with a high near 54. Chance of precipitation is 40%. New rainfall amounts of less than a tenth of an inch possible.

Sunday Night: A chance of rain before 5am, then a chance of rain and snow. Cloudy, with a low around 35. Chance of precipitation is 50%.

Monday: A chance of rain and snow showers. Cloudy, with a high near 49. Chance of precipitation is 50%.

Monday Night: A chance of rain and snow showers. Mostly cloudy, with a low around 35. Chance of precipitation is 30%.

This is looking more like 4/16/07 as the trends continue.....
