Snowciopath Posted July 16, 2014 Share Posted July 16, 2014 Interesting couple of days. Significant rain all around my house, but since Sunday we only had a total of 0.71 inches and it was divided up pretty evenly between Sunday, Monday and Tuesday. None today. With that many storms bouncing around, usually one will score a hit and drop some heavy rain - but none did, we were always on the edges. Same here in Ashford... Only .86 inches since Sunday, the most coming from the .45 inches yesterday. It seems like the heavy rain has been dodging me for months. The last time we had an inch of rain in a single event was 4/10, and the last real significant rain was 3/31-4/1 when we got about 2 inches. I was certain that this would be our first significant rain event in months, but I guess I'll have to keep waiting... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wxsniss Posted July 16, 2014 Share Posted July 16, 2014 Nice pic Sam! Thanks man, lol. Desperate for something interesting in my hood. 7-10 split was a great analogy for Boston area most of the past 2 days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Christina311 Posted July 17, 2014 Share Posted July 17, 2014 I saw some nice looking storms around Worcester/Sturbridge yesterday. I don't regret going. I would have been disappointed if I went out specifically to chase but I made it part of a trip I already had planned. I did get a little pissed when tornado warnings started going off on my phone for MY OWN COUNTY while I halfway across the state. When I arrived back in Boston today the storms were moving out over the ocean. People were pulling over on bridges to get look at this Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rainbow_fake_wall_cloud_07_16_14.jpg I saw this too. I came out of an hour long workout and saw it. I've never seen such an accurate scud impersonation of a wall cloud. Clearly wasnt rotating but damn, it was cool.especially with the clearing and beautiful sunset starting in the backdrop. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SJonesWX Posted July 17, 2014 Share Posted July 17, 2014 That was a nightmare coming back from Kenmore to Arlington. Standing water 8-12" in the middle of streets usually not prone to flooding. Alewife was almost impassable at the height of deluge. Mass Ave. Arlington (Ctr. of town) power outage, three detours end to end....oh boy....left late morning with less than a tenth arrived back with 2.14" in the bucket. rt 16 from Alewife to 93 was a mess during that deluge. huge puddles had the road down to 1 lane in many spots. disastah!

Quincy Posted July 17, 2014 Share Posted July 17, 2014 While this thread is still pinned and this has to do with a couple of days ago, here's a look at what would have been a "practically perfect forecast" in terms of SPC wind probabilities for Tuesday via CIPS: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CT Rain Posted July 22, 2014 Share Posted July 22, 2014 GFS has some fairly steep mid level lapse rates but just garbage wind fields here in SNE. Looks like 7-7.5 C/km though so that's a decent look... only 10 knots of 0-6km bulk shear so probably pulsers? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even if the timing was earlier there's minimal shear. Meh all around. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
