Ian Posted May 11, 2013 Share Posted May 11, 2013 Next Monday (20th) or Tue looks kinda interesting. Maybe we'll miss one right off the bat this year... but this time while basking under an upper ridge. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TalcottWx Posted May 11, 2013 Share Posted May 11, 2013 there is some instability, shear, moisture, lift etc to be had today. if storms can get going there seems to be a legitimate chance at some severe reports. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ian Posted May 12, 2013 Share Posted May 12, 2013 Still a pretty good signal for early next week. Yeah it's way out but a historically favorable look. Maybe we'll chase IA Sat, IN Sun and this area Mon before the next trough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ellinwood Posted May 14, 2013 Share Posted May 14, 2013 Tomorrow aftn looks interesting. Looks like most of it will stay to our north tomorrow afternoon. We might be able to sneak a pop-up storm or two ahead of that main area, but it looks like central/southern PA will be the place to be tomorrow. Hopefully some of it holds together as it pushes south tomorrow night (see: GFS solution). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully some of it holds together as it pushes south tomorrow night (see: GFS solution). Yeah that's what I was thinking..just was looking around at things and shear/lapse rates were pretty good. Not really much in the way of upper level jet energy or support...but may have to watch a line push into the region early evening. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mappy Posted May 17, 2013 Share Posted May 17, 2013 Perhaps Wednesday? You know with Ian and Mark gone, we will definitely have a tornado outbreak (remember last year?) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ellinwood Posted May 17, 2013 Share Posted May 17, 2013 Perhaps Wednesday? Plenty of CAPE, but shear will be veeeeeeeeeeeery weak. Quick glance of the 06z GFS forecast soundings for Wednesday has no more than 20-25 kt. speeds throughout the atmosphere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ellinwood Posted May 17, 2013 Share Posted May 17, 2013 Damn that blows... do you see any chance next week for any svr? Wed looked like the best day to me There's definitely room for severe Wednesday and maybe Thursday, it's just the storms will probably be more pulse in nature, with spot coverage of hail and gusty winds. Don't really see any sort of organized threat forming. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eskimo Joe Posted May 17, 2013 Share Posted May 17, 2013 Define "big weather event" Severe storms? Tornado? Tropical Storm?
