Very cool, Kev.. Dont have that here and we're closer to the storm. I guess the key is to be farther away :axe:

At this point It's become laughable..Mammatus is always the sign of an impending storm.. 2 x in a week I see this over my house and nothing happens..Won't even rain anymore

The storm season in general has been more comical than it normally is. It's not just you. I haven't had much thunder since I've moved here in 2013.

We bang--at least for a little while.

 

...DOPPLER RADAR INDICATED A HEAVY SHOWER WHICH MAY DEVELOP
INTO A STRONG THUNDERSTORM IN CENTRAL FRANKLIN COUNTY...

AT 653 PM EDT...NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE DOPPLER RADAR WAS TRACKING
A HEAVY SHOWER WHICH MAY DEVELOP INTO A STRONG THUNDERSTORM NEAR
SHELBURNE...OR NEAR GREENFIELD...MOVING EAST AT 15 MPH.

HAIL UP TO THE SIZE OF PEAS AND WIND GUSTS UP TO 40 MPH CAN BE
EXPECTED WITH THIS DEVELOPING STORM.

.21 of rain here in the last 16 days. 

Not good in the heart of summer sun

 

the rich have been getting richer in terms of rain this summer from convection.  We have had some pretty solid rains here at times but it's just the same areas getting hit time after time again.

It's far Western areas and E areas. Central SNE just hasn't had anything.

eastern areas has had tremendous benefit from enhanced lift from boundaries.  Central areas have been screwed b/c we have either had poor FROPA timing, s/w energy has been tracking too far north and FROPA's have been rather weak as well.  

 

Let's hope after this upcoming heat wave we can get a widespread squall line banger episode.  We have not really had a tremendous powerful squall line push through the entire region in quite some time.

seems pretty similar to today setup wise.  some nice inverted-v soundings with very high cape values.  actually some directional shear too again but since speed shear is so meh helicity remains meh

he washed oiut boundary which has stalled over the region 

The washed out boundary which has stalled over SNE is the trigger. The hope is , should they form over W Mass again..there's enough push to get more areas in the mix as the line should sag SE

Looked to be some s/w energy moving overhead too tomorrow which is good.  pretty weak capping too so we could see stuff fire very early on

And of course NNJ and SE NY getting crushed again tonight. Every event its Same areas . Ninos blow

No. You are letting recent confirmation bias cloud your judgement. Summers with burgeoning niño have actually been active.
