Typhoon Tip Posted July 2, 2012 Author Share Posted July 2, 2012 For eastern CT/Mass/ and RI Wednesday, the 18z NAM is better than the 12z. West of there may suck in this depiction - But for eastern New England there is a wedge of slightly lowered 700mb RH that is probably representative of some partial warm sector clearing with more proficiency than the 12z had it. the T1 shot from just 20C on the 12z guidance, to 25C, which with 70DP would be a torrid instability evolving in a 3-4 hour window - again, east of Forkyfork and Ct "Ryan" But that's just this model run... It 'almosts' looks a bit like that 1987 June event to me. Somewhat. That day dawned with a warm front in the area, and on-going isentropic lift convection. In fact, one cell or 2 were even warned as they passed west to east. On the back side of that activity, around 1 or 2 pm, it cleared abruptly. The warm sector punched up to about southern NH, and S of there the sky went misty blue and the temp soared from the mid 60s at 11am in heavier showers, to 87 by 5pm - no exaggeration there. The DP was 72-74, too. At around 8pm it hit - one of the severest storms I've ever seen, and that includes the 15 years I lived in the midwest. It was a like a mini derecho (derechio to ChrisM). It came down Rt 2 in two pulses: One was about 1/2 hour out ahead of the storm; the 2nd was with the storm its self. I had never seen that before, but almost wonder to this day if gravity wave action somehow split the outflow into concentric bands. Interesting.

Well the media and extememists are pissed that tornadoes are near record lows for May and June, so have to weenie out on something. I like your comment earlier about DC and NYC, The world revolves around those two places so everything must be hyped there. Irene was such a gross example of that in NYC.

I didn't look at much today as I'll be in srn NH at a friends place..hopefully drinking and shooting roman candles at people. Euro looked rather messy.

If the AM storms can't go severe (unlikely right now) then I actually think western and northern areas have a better chance of seeing storms. Atmosphere has best chance of recovering there.

Atmosphere has best chance of recovering there. Just looked at some stuff. It just seems like whether or not the morning stuff gets out and clears up. I feel like if the morning MCS didn't happen..it may be game on. The only thing that seems rather blah, is shear...velocity that is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree they are, but the Irene coverage went a little overboard there...especially afterwards when all the hype luckily turned out to be not so bad. It was the post talk about how it was still deadly and the term "unprecedented" was thrown around. Almost like a rush to try and justify the hype. Meanwhile where the impacts were always forecasted to be significant...nobody really talked about that until after the fact. Just wait until something stronger then Irene approaches from the south or south-southeast. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ginx snewx Posted July 2, 2012 Share Posted July 2, 2012 Surrounded by towers popping up, counted seven complexes, rumbling continues. Gets sticky then dries out quickly. Getting absolutely raked, wind gusted to 45, heavy lightning too close. Scared the crap out of the tribe. Awesome, two days in a row. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
