ice1972 Posted June 27, 2017 Share Posted June 27, 2017 Here's a shot from the Cheshire-southington line looking east down the Meriden-Waterbury Turnpike from the connector for 691 to 84E.....anybody want to comment on that thin rope feature extending down and to the left center of pic? It showed up in multiple pics so it's definitely a cloud feature Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm so happy about how everything looks. I'm like a proud papa. Just hope we can get some drinks. This area since 2015 has had some uncanny bad luck in convection. But been getting snow lol.

Typhoon Tip Posted June 28, 2017 Share Posted June 28, 2017 Low heights along with mid level lapse rates being steep combined to produce prolific hail. The freezing levels were not appreciably high yesterday, so suspending any updraft cores for any length of time through a relatively low phase transition altitude would aggregate ice proficiently, as well as help keep particles in tact in the heavier fall cores. It's almost a smack in the face homage to "ripping off" summer in the sense that was a March air mass mid way up the cloud towers... Ha - we can't seem to shake the Earth's multi-year obsessive rage to keep troughing locked over the NE Conus. ... Yesterday was also an exercise in top of the line efficiency in CAPE usage... We were generating severe with excessive rainfall rates ...some with embedded heavy hail cores, with DPs in the low 50s! Some places picked up over 3" of water from that. The only thing preventing FF was probably the storm motion being pretty quick - which also says something in how communities managed to coat the ground in hail in like 5 minutes of rage. At least ... this is what appears to characterize the day from the reports I'm seeing - Not sure if anyone reported hail duration per se.. Anyway, always seems to come back to mid level lapse rates.

As is often the case, the storms avoided my place except for a 6 PM "fringing" that barely got the ground wet, while sites 20-30 miles east and south had downpours with hail. As of 5 minutes ago, of the 135+ listed cocorahs observers in Maine/NH, only a handful right next to New Brunswick (Eastport/Pembroke/Lubec, all with zero) reported less than my 0.01".

CT Valley Snowman Posted June 30, 2017 Share Posted June 30, 2017 Anyone have any links or info on the June 27 1992 hailstorm in Holyoke Ma, I remember it vaguely. A couple of weather history sites I looked at mentioned hail with 1-2 feet drifts but they were only very brief descriptions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
