Ginx snewx Posted November 24, 2012 Share Posted November 24, 2012 btw was looking through the reports from the big coop stations in CT from the 1950 sou'easter. Holy crap. 100 mph gust Hartford... 88 mph gust Bridgeport and 77 mph gust in New Haven. Pretty epic. That was an epic storm even CON gusted to 100+, Dendrite would be in heaven Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CT Rain Posted November 24, 2012 Share Posted November 24, 2012 That was an epic storm even CON gusted to 100+, Dendrite would be in heaven New London's 4th highest tide level since 1890 or something was from that storm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ginx snewx Posted November 24, 2012 Share Posted November 24, 2012 New London's 4th highest tide level since 1890 or something was from that storm. Did you check out the USGS link I sent you, some real cool data from the 1000 plus temporary tide stations they set up in front of Sandy. Niantic Bay surge was pretty neat, funnel effect. You can see why Staten Island took such a beating, perfectly lined up with winds and seas for max surge, one data point had 16 feet another 15.5 on SI Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CT Rain Posted November 24, 2012 Share Posted November 24, 2012 how did EWR do? The fastest "mile" was 62 but that probably means gusts over hurricane force. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ginx snewx Posted November 24, 2012 Share Posted November 24, 2012 ran across this interesting tid Bit on the Great Appalachian Storm of 1950 "This cyclone was used as a test case for some of the first attempts at numerical modeling of the atmosphere, and is still used as a case study to run recent versions of forecast models.

Ginx snewx Posted November 24, 2012 Share Posted November 24, 2012 This is most interesting Associated with the strong circulation around the Low at 500 mb., significant warming at that level occurred to the east and north of the Low center. The temperature at Goose, Labrador, rose more than 8' C. from 1500 GMT, November 24, to 1500 GMT, November 26, while the height rose almost 850 feet. Since the advection of warm air in the vicinity of 500 mb. would cause the surface pressure to fall (other factors being unchanged) it is necessary to look elsewhere for a cause of the rising surfhce pressures and 500-mb. heights. A study of the 2OO-mh. charts shows that associated with the southerly circulation over the east coast, the temperature at that level: over Goose, Labrador, fell almost. 15O C. from, 1500 .;GMT, November 24, to 1500 GMT, November 26, whjl~s, thb height rose more than 1,000 feet. Apparently the move- ment of relatively colder and heavier air in the strato- sphere over the Labrador region compensated for the relatively warmer and lighter air, brought in around 590 mb. and allowed the surface pressure to remain about -the same. Thus the circulation of the Low itself influenced its future movement by contributing to the maintenance of the blocking High. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HM Posted November 24, 2012 Share Posted November 24, 2012 HM must have a tingle in his loins when he sees the winds progged to go near neutral and even weakly reverse above 70N..and in between 30-50mb. Those waves are doing their job at the moment. LOL Happy Thanksgiving to you and everyone by the way. Yes the stratospheric trends make me more interested in January and February than December. ... not to dismiss the upcoming periods of winter which will kick ass.

ORH_wxman Posted November 24, 2012 Share Posted November 24, 2012 Well AAWT..almost as we thought. We needed squalls/snow showers for that Yeah I'm not surprised at a few stray flurries. The moisture wasn't there though for WINDEX squalls...also lifting mechanism wasn't great. Maybe we'll get another chance with the cold shot next week.
