CoastalWx Posted September 12, 2013 Share Posted September 12, 2013 Yeah, I didn't get into anything during 6/1 ( like most in eastern areas, we all smoked cirrus). 8/10 is pretty much the worst lightning I've seen around here "firsthand", it was definitely nasty like I've seen in the south and TX. Anyway like you said, storms are dying quickly. Lightning is not frequent at all, now. 8/10/00 is a close one. Maybe in RI it beat 6/1/11, but the strobes in 6/1 were incredible. 8/1/10 is definitely the second best night llightshow event for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

free_man Posted September 12, 2013 Author Share Posted September 12, 2013 Which cell gave the lightning just now...NW of you? Yeah W and NW, when it was a line over Cheshire Cty. Since split. There was one nearly constant pulsing towards Hillsborough NH, or N of there. I'm interested in seeing MHT and ASH obs, the line collapsed with some good gusts.

radarman Posted September 12, 2013 Share Posted September 12, 2013 tons of rain lightning and wind my night is complete Forcefield in effect here, the storm notched and fizzled around Quabbin so far. Light drops just starting to fall but thunder and lightning have died out. The calls for weakening were right on, which I didn't think was a total lock due to elevated instability.

eyewall Posted September 12, 2013 Share Posted September 12, 2013 I made up for the earlier chase and caught some good lightning tonight. I will have to go through and see what i got Sent from my DROIDX using Tapatalk 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dendrite Posted September 12, 2013 Share Posted September 12, 2013 Good lightning show, but not epic up here imo. Little wind and 0.22" so far. Bring on fall. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CoastalWx Posted September 12, 2013 Share Posted September 12, 2013 This pretty much went as planned I think as far as possibilities go and timing of weakening. HRRR had a decent handle on it with the earlier runs. Look at what better shear does to storm organization in NH, along with slightly cooler ML temps. With storms, there is not a linear relationship to temps aloft at point A vs point B. It's either all or nothing. Even a difference of 1-2C aloft can mean getting nailed by SVR storms or just anvil rain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wx4cast Posted September 12, 2013 Share Posted September 12, 2013 Lost power earlier this eve from storm that toppled a tree onto power line outside my house. Heard a loud wind roar. Better than average lightning and thunder. Re: Thursday's threat, to me it looks just as good as today's; there is no EML but bulk shear looks to be greater and 12hr Height falls are better than past two days were.

Typhoon Tip Posted September 12, 2013 Share Posted September 12, 2013 Not a drop here but some distant booms as the weakening surge-cells struggled in vane to throw down a fork or two. It's been about as amazing as it gets watching as-expected wipe out/decay. Even the lag back vil rains are lifting N. Ayer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joey2002 Posted September 12, 2013 Share Posted September 12, 2013 Saw some distant lightning before the storms died out... how's tomorrow looking down this way? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoastalWx Posted September 12, 2013 Share Posted September 12, 2013 BTW, found the SPC image I have for 6/1. Basically across SNE is was fluctuating between 7-7.5 in the aftn. At that point, the shear was ridiculous...it doesn't matter if it were 7 or 7.5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quincy Posted September 12, 2013 Share Posted September 12, 2013 Saw some distant lightning before the storms died out... how's tomorrow looking down this way?I'm not too impressed. If we somehow clear out the clouds first thing in the morning, I might change my tune. Otherwise I'd probably expect a typical event with just a few widely scattered marginal severe storms.

Typhoon Tip Posted September 12, 2013 Share Posted September 12, 2013 well I got my outflow through here in Ayer. Manage to knock 10 off the old miserable monitor. But unfortunately, it wasn't the curtain stretching house penetration I hoped it would be. So ... now, without A.C. in my main living space, it is a reasonable 75 outside, and torrid 87 in my living room. D'oh. I know, I know ... window fans, another A.C. just not economical for me right now so I pray for -NAOs. Peace. I'm ready for f winter! woof woof I will say watching Carp hit a grand slam to put the TB Rays on their heels in the top of the tenth was almost ...almost as good as watching the classical collapse and acceleration outflow deliver a modicum of cooler air to my location.
