Random but i need help. I'm getting into an argument with my coworker right now.

 

HVN (Tweed-New Haven) is reporting 10SM while OXC (Oxford-Waterbury) is reporting 1/4SM FG

 

What would be the most appropriate way to describe that fog in Oxford? It's 700ft MSL and the T-d spread is 4C during that report. I said radiation fog but my coworker is saying upslope.

 

Thank you!!

The NHC forecast has a weak TS at best. The official forecast calls for a decrease of shear in about 24-36 hours. And the system is expected to merge with a frontal boundary which as we all know can induce strengthening if the LLJ is positioned favorably.

Even if it survives the shear and if/when it merges with a frontal boundary, it's not going to be a purly tropical system.

That's all I'm say.

Right, I made several posts earlier explaining potential impacts should the system make landfall near the area, most likely as an extra tropical entity. Extra tropical systems can be far more powerful and impactfull than fully tropical systems at our lattitude for the obvious reasons.

Well if this happens, inland areas will not be able to come to the rescue of the coastal regions due to 10" of rain flooding their basements miles from the ocean or rivers.  Also hurricane force winds could be in effect around here for a few hours.
