radarman Posted July 4, 2013 Share Posted July 4, 2013 Did you have drizzle this morning? CEF had many DZ obs, but it looks like bogus sensor issues considering some were with BKN skies. I'm not sure I buy the current 77/77 either considering every other station in MA is pretty much 71-73 except for U60s in W MA and a stray 75 at OWD. Yeah no dz. The UMass Davis was 75 when CEF was 76 and in general it always is a degree or two higher so something might be going on. 73-74 is probably about right which is humid enough.

CT Rain Posted July 4, 2013 Author Share Posted July 4, 2013 86/76 here. Yuck. I did have 0.01" in the Davis this morning... heavy, heavy dew? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CT Rain Posted July 4, 2013 Author Share Posted July 4, 2013 There could be some impressive boomers today across N CT/W & C Mass/NH/VT/E NY. Lots of instability... lapse rates that aren't in the vomit-inducing category... and a subtle 850mb speed max. Will obviously need a trigger... but 500mb heights stay neutral through the day and I wouldn't be surprised if some sea breeze or differential heating boundary kicked off a good storm or two.

RIcoastalWX Posted July 4, 2013 Share Posted July 4, 2013 78/72 - Mostly Cloudy. Low clouds finally beginning to break up. Nice (occasionally gusty) SW breeze keeping things in check temp-wise. Traffic getting in and around Westerly is some of the worse I've seen in years. Lines start at the beach entrances and are backed up for miles and miles in all directions. They really don't seem to be moving much either. People trying to find alternate routes to the beaches are causing even more issues but doing u-turns and quick stops to see if any side road will get them to the beach quicker. Police are doing their best to mitigate the situation but it's a losing battle right about now. Chaos is the best way to describe it. Glad I did my errands yesterday!

Heights fall a bit this afternoon and evening.Yeah, it weakens a bit and sags south on the modes later this weekend into early next week and rain moves back into the area. I hope that means the dews relax a bit, I work outdoors and even though I like the heat this is just plain uncomfortable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

weathafella Posted July 4, 2013 Share Posted July 4, 2013 I feel for the throngs on the esplanade. All sun, hot as blazes, and dews in the 70s. I've never understood getting up at 4am to cop a spot but then again I could always walk down there and take the show in. Most spectacular ws the 1976 bi-centennial with 400,000 people, a racially tense city all in harmony for one day. Folks smoking joints out in the open. Now many of those folks are trying to stop the tide for legalization...lol. We're heading to Princeton today..leaving shortly. Maybe we'll drive through some boomers as we traverse the GW.

radarman Posted July 4, 2013 Share Posted July 4, 2013 Don't forget your jacket and hoodie. and scarf lol. NAM sounding develops very good llv lapse rates later on, especially from ORE to ALB to HFD. There is a shallow warm layer just above 700, but I would think it would be eroded by peak heating. Instability is maxed further east though with E MA already 3000 j/kg SBCape. I wonder if actually it turns out to be the 495 corridor from Rt 2 to the NH border that turns out to be the best combination of everything with some sea breeze convergence for initiation.

Certainly not problem with insolation - searing. Wow at NAM MOS with 98 for ASH over to BED for tomorrow. Advisories should surely be promoted to warning if THAT transpires! Particularly with DPs at or exceeding 70. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah...true, but I'm wondering if heights being near or exceeding 594dm, if the BL expands a bit higher than normal. Could be 825mb adiabat, and looking at those numbers on the sounding ...what would that support? Probably the same - HA. I'll down load the data and take a look. Btw, TCU at ALB -- oh, man. How awesome would an outflow be on a day like this - Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
