Typhoon Tip Posted April 23, 2013 Author Share Posted April 23, 2013 Hope the euro is right for next week. Definitely PT material. That's a pretty exceptional weather period, spanning perhaps 4 days, too. 70 to 76 by day, and low 50s at night -- green up has begun here, but that will really put the foot to the throttle when/if that happens.

ORH_wxman Posted April 23, 2013 Share Posted April 23, 2013 Kevin is only mapped at 900 ft... http://cteco.uconn.edu/map_catalog/maps/town/Contour_Map/Contour_Map_Tolland.pdf Looks like about 920-930 feet on those maps...but they are definitely about 50 feet lower than the USGS maps.

Typhoon Tip Posted April 23, 2013 Author Share Posted April 23, 2013 Funny, the D8/9 operational Euro and GFS are mirror opposites with the height anomalies over the OV/NE areas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clinch Leatherwood Posted April 23, 2013 Share Posted April 23, 2013 Rollo will be disappointed. Only if he was smearing his body in Minot snow as a raging east wind blew. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
powderfreak Posted April 23, 2013 Share Posted April 23, 2013 Beautiful day through early afternoon, though now those clouds off to the east have overspread us, leaving filtered sunshine though they do appear to be thickening. 40" on the ground at the 3,000ft stake (pictured)...with 60" on the ground at the COOP stake closer to 4,000ft. Sharp depth gradient this time of year based on elevation. The snow continues to melt though... Only pretty patchy cover here at the road closure gate at 1,500ft... able to see pavement on RT 108 for the first time since mid November. I hear there's still up to 18" of snow on portions of the road at the top of the pass over 2,200ft. A slow end to winter but spring is finally starting to take over up here.

ORH_wxman Posted April 23, 2013 Share Posted April 23, 2013 Still 37F at ORH at 3pm...record low max is 38F. Surprised it still hasn't been tied. I figured it would make it to 40F or so. Still might, but it better do it soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Damage In Tolland Posted April 23, 2013 Share Posted April 23, 2013 We are gonna roast in 70's to near 80 all of next week. We knew this should happen as everything gets shoved south. Those that bought the Euro run of 3-5 day nor'easter really struggled. Of course it's not good for the drought but some nice Indian Summer wx is coming next week. Yes Indian summer happens in spring after our last freeze. Lets get those dews up too! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still might, but it better do it soon. I was kidding around earlier but seriously ... this atmosphere is warming from the top down. I think there is a chance that many areas see temps start to eek upward as the evening progresses. Wondering if the high there is like 10 minutes before midnight.

Even at significant elevation they are 20F higher than ORH well to the SE of there. Dry airmass out that way with SLK seeing a RH of 19% with dews in the mid teens.

Typhoon Tip Posted April 23, 2013 Author Share Posted April 23, 2013 Heh, I guess not so impressive at the thermometer houses, but that's pretty impressive "sensible" differential right there. Light wind with 62F and full sun is HUGE whopper of a difference compared to Bedford, where it is 41 with slate gray and sprinkles. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even at significant elevation they are 20F higher than ORH well to the SE of there. Dry airmass out that way with SLK seeing a RH of 19% with dews in the mid teens. I was just looking at the GGEM for tomorrow... synoptically, it shows us clearing on the back side of this circulation working N off the coast, similar to the Carolinas right now, and then we transport 62F air down slope through a medium that is warmer(ing) at 850. I doubt the boundary layer gets that tall, but even at 900 or 875 or so that would support a balmy high tomorrow should the wind go off shore and the column abruptly dries out that way. It's interesting the MOS products have been hitting that so hard. Quite the 24 to 30 hour turn around. Then we back down for a day and a half, though still balmy with insolation offsetting ... then if the Euro's right we probably fully leafed out or 70% of the way, anyway, after 4 or 5 days of mid 70s/50 type spring.

Typhoon Tip Posted April 23, 2013 Author Share Posted April 23, 2013 Euro and NAM say notsofast with 70F for ENE tomorrow. Yeah, I mentioned this earlier, how the NAM was backing down a bit... 06z still had BED sky rocketing to 75...now, it's like 57 there. wow. They are higher res solutions, and it is April so...heh. what can you do. But I think you won't have to go very far into the interior; I bet I'm over 60 here in Ayer, and it's mid 60s out further west along the Pike and Rt 2 Although the GGEM is higher res type, too and it's still more optimistic than that. So is the GFSX (which stands for Experimental version of Good For Sh*t) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ORH_wxman Posted April 23, 2013 Share Posted April 23, 2013 Euro and NAM say notsofast with 70F for ENE tomorrow. Yeah, the Euro is actually kind of putrid for BOS. Like low to mid 50s type stuff with onshore flow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
