dendrite Posted July 13, 2015 Share Posted July 13, 2015 Umm this is General T'STORM banter not general DEW POINT banterI'm pretty sure it all ties in. If someone wasn't such a weenie there would've only been about 2-3 posts about dews. And technically this isn't a banter thread in any way.

Core appeared to have passed but no sooner had I typed the above than it opened up. Heavy downpours and several hits. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
#NoPoles Posted July 13, 2015 Share Posted July 13, 2015 Interesting directional movement....not every day you see storms move from the SE to NW Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
radarman Posted July 13, 2015 Share Posted July 13, 2015 Interesting directional movement....not every day you see storms move from the SE to NW Ahh.. thanks for pointing that out I was not paying attn, but glanced out the window and saw ominous clouds. Opened up the nexrad and saw the storm to the east... figured it had passed and was strengthening. Didn't occur to me that it was headed in this direction. Indeed it is very rare for a storm to take that path here, I can only recall it a handful of times since 2005. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But it was very odd to get by a T-storm today from due south. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mostly pulse type stuff, maybe an occasional small hailer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We had some very fast wind shifts that I thought could be indicative of partially collapsing cells, but no severe gusts here. A few strays limbs or branches I guess could've come down somewhere. Had to glance at the RAP and sure enough it did have that little inverted feature at H7 and H850 that would've suggested storm motion like that. Pretty cool.

moneypitmike Posted July 13, 2015 Share Posted July 13, 2015 Man--just drove back from the Hampshire Mall. It was 85* heading there through Sunderland/Amherst. Coming back an hour later, hit the torrential rains (incredibly hard), saw a few CG strikes. Temp dropped to 67* as I head through. Most oppressive day of the summer at the Pit. 78.6/69 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
#NoPoles Posted July 13, 2015 Share Posted July 13, 2015 Listening to TWC talk about CAPE And explosive storm development...and then they bring the Midwest radar up and it's almost completely empty except for one non severe cell...I chuckled Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You were lucky, that little storm pulsed up just at the right time to move through Amherst at it's peak...I was tracking a cell that pulsed up near wrentham and then died out in franklin...would have hit me had it held together Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
