Kind of shocked hail probs are only 5%.  I guess the WBZ heights are a tad higher than you would like to see for severe hail but latest SPC meso has anywhere from 300-500 J/KG of Cape in the -10C to -30C layer which is pretty damn solid.  (Actually even a few pockets of 600 J/KG).  With vertical shear on the increase later on that should enhance updraft rotation a bit.  I know MCS's aren't notorious for producing hail but they definitely can...especially with some of the parameters in place.

the micro showers moving through in band are more instability bouncing around above the cap and aren't really associated with instability, diurnally driven.  If that cap recedes later/.and or weakens by parcel inclusion ... but I don't even see much of CU field at all.  

 

I see there are some initial conditions here but I think this current contamination running over top is more likely to reduce this realization to climo for New England -- which is a big waste of time. 

 

We'll see.  But later this evening this has more ear-marks of an MCS genesis... Might be interesting night -

Could see this disaster setting up hours ago. Instability axis moves across right at prime heating time. So sun doesn't come back till 3:30-4:00

 

lol you're ridiculous. Big deal there are some clouds around. The storm threat isn't until this evening anyway.
