TauntonBlizzard2013 Posted July 24, 2016 Share Posted July 24, 2016 A few gusts.... Pretty meh though. Kind of a hose job here. Not much last night and looks like those storms to the north are weakening fast Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JJBASHB Posted July 24, 2016 Share Posted July 24, 2016 I took this near Westminster, Vt. Didn't see anything severe but a cool shelf cloud none the less. I took video too, need to edit it/figure out how to edit it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LikesNaturesFury Posted July 24, 2016 Share Posted July 24, 2016 Hi! New here. Does anyone here have information about gust fronts? I've seen them on radar and experienced them, but I'm very curious what causes them (the physics of it). A nice one came through here in RI today from the storms in MA.

LikesNaturesFury Posted July 24, 2016 Share Posted July 24, 2016 Thanks so much Ginx snewx!!! Now I only need to learn how the gust front (a) manages to travel many miles beyond the actual storm, and (b) how and why it shows up on radar (or includes precipitation).

Mips Posted July 24, 2016 Share Posted July 24, 2016 This is out of a Trail Journals post by an AT thru hiker posting about the storm when it passed through a section of VT yesterday. Link to his entire entry for Saturday pertinent excerpt " With only four miles left and walking directly by a shelter we stopped for a quick break. Being one that loves weather what happened next was unbelievable. We literally had our packs on ready to do the last 4.3 miles. Five other hikers left 10 minutes before us. Within 30 seconds the skies turned black and then we saw off in the distance funnel clouds and rotation. The packs came back off and within 5 minutes it started to rain and hail like most of us have never seen. This lasted for about an hour. You could not even talk to the person next to you as the hail hitting the roof was deafing. He has the name of the shelter listed as Kid Gore Shelter in Bennington some shelter location speciifics Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dendrite Posted July 25, 2016 Share Posted July 25, 2016 I didn't look at much, but I did see some mets in here posting about quite a bit of dry air aloft. I'm guessing DCAPE was pretty decent. That would aid some healthy downdrafts behind that gustfront. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NECT Posted July 25, 2016 Share Posted July 25, 2016 Is there a reason Kevin is the only one chiming in on severe today? SPC has marginal to slight chances for most of us, even a 2% tor in eastern NY and far western NE. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My guess is loss of daytime heating and a less favorable environment the further east you go to maintain the line as it currently is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NECT Posted July 25, 2016 Share Posted July 25, 2016 Guess I'll just watch with Kevin.... Convective update... Line of thunderstorms approaching the Hudson Valley in eastern NY has not weakened. It will be approaching surface based CAPE values of 1000-1500 and is not expected to weaken as it approaches western MA. These could become severe. The RAP and HRRR are not capturing this convection. Behind this line, abundant sunshine in southern NY may help a second, potentially more potent area form and move into our region late this afternoon.

tamarack Posted July 25, 2016 Share Posted July 25, 2016 Look at upstream radar. It's coming I looked upstream Saturday while "it was coming". Then it split N and S, and the dying embers gave me the same 0.01" I'd seen Friday. Maybe things will change, but now it looks like the action will get here after dark, as it falls apart.
