well clearly it has with winds SW up to BOS. Just gotta burn the low clouds off which is happening now

 

 

The true front is back near NYC...where dewpoints are in the 50s and then just SW of that they are in the 70s. That's the front that matters in terms of storminess later today...gotta get that through us if we want anything close to severe.

What it seems like will happen is the warm front sort of "jumps" north. I think folks are thinking it just slowly oozes and slides like a weenie into home.

Ok locked in all day. Temps in the 50's for everyone. Models and forecasters all clueless

 

What are you talking about... Scott and I tried to warn you all day yesterday, but you were too busy with that nay-sayer auto-pilot thing you do to listen I suppose.

NAM MOS went from 83 at Logan to 70 in one run -- could be telling.  But, we need about 20kts of SW flow at 850 (general rule of thumb) to mix out a cold slab.  Also, Dr. Colby and I have noted that saturated cool boundary layers are tougher to erode than dry cold during tuck patterns. 

 

This was a tuck pattern on steroids.

It will get warm today eventually...late bloomer though.

 

Yeah ... for 20 minutes between 5 and 5:20pm, then clusters of chocked off dying convection shroud the sky with light rain anvils and it's pea-soup all night.   And Kevin starts jumping around  going see, it's warm...  haha

what's wrong with it?

 

they were are cutting the front west to east through N CT/RI, when the air mass either side isn't really differentiable, nor is there a constant linear pressure along that axis.  

 

But ... in their defense, I just noticed that the last update was several hours ago.  They just updated it and look ... much better :)

Here comes a meatloaf comment from the rev lol.

Will do you think the high dewpoints get in later to areas south of the pike

 

 

You didn't ask me ... but yesterdays BOX afd espoused the day as a kind of unilateral mixing out as the day progresses.   

 

One thing I am seeing via what is available of high res imagery this morning is that there is some mid and high level cloud contaminant running over top this lower strata tuck.  We would be far more successful at mixing this out if the sun were allowed more unabated insolation.   If the higher levels continue to "shelter" the lower strata from the sun, then the sfc heating is severally muted and less mixing results.

Too much downplaying here. The warmth is happening now and strengthens from here on out.
