weatherwiz Posted April 12, 2014 Share Posted April 12, 2014 Lol it's April. How many severe reports have we ever had in April? Esp early April 2002 had a great event. It was a Sunday. Red Sox played the Blue Jays I believe...had nasty storms during afternoon...saw 1.5" hail in New Britain then more storms came at late evening with tornado warnings...was the best lighting show I saw until 2008 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CT Rain Posted April 12, 2014 Share Posted April 12, 2014 I bet VT and wrn MA gets some thunder. Yeah wouldn't surprise me... they may wind up getting some again Sunday night toward the Canadian border. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
powderfreak Posted April 12, 2014 Share Posted April 12, 2014 I bet VT and wrn MA gets some thunder. Yeah I'm mildly worried about it... BTV's got thunderstorms in the forecast. Its always odd at this time of year when ski area operations coincide with thunder threats. Hopefully just elevated cloud to cloud lightning...not a huge fan of daytime thunderstorms while sitting on metal chairlifts sticking 3,000+ feet up in the air, lol.

CoastalWx Posted April 12, 2014 Share Posted April 12, 2014 Yeah i mean it would it surprise me that's all. If it were just heavy rain, it wouldn't surprise me either. It's just a possibility and I could see why with that warm push. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's just a possibility and I could see why with that warm push. There's almost 1000 j/kg of MUCAPE surging northeast. On the leading edge of that getting some elevated convection wouldn't surprise me one bit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Damage In Tolland Posted April 12, 2014 Author Share Posted April 12, 2014 Tomorrow seems like one of those days where CT torches early and it's 72 at BDL by 1:00 pm and then south wind roars way inland by 3:00 pm and has everyone scurrying for jackets and temps falling into 50's while ORH north is still in the 70's Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

powderfreak Posted April 12, 2014 Share Posted April 12, 2014 The question is how far up in elevation does the snow melt out prior to the freeze on Wednesday morning? Next couple nights look real mild, like 40s and 50s for lows. This stuff is pretty ripe but still hanging in there. Where is the snow cover elevation on Wednesday morning? 17" this morning at 1,500ft...although no snow left at home aside from a few patches, drifts, and roof fall. Steep snowpack gradient around 1,000-1,500ft right now. How high up does that gradient go by the time we freeze mid-week? 2,000-2,500ft? And there's still a solid 2 feet even as low as 1,700ft...which is less than 1,000ft above my bare yard, lol. That's what's always fascinating this time of year...how different it can look between the different elevations. Then just another couple hundred feet higher in the 1800-2000ft area there's like 30" of glacier. It keeps increasing rapidly with elevation, all the way up to today's 76" depth at the co-op stake at 3,700ft.

I would have temps in low 70's inland and then tell folks to have jacket as roaring south sea breeze works up to and past BDL mid to late afternoon and turns things from warm to chilly Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
