Tom12309 Posted May 2, 2018 Share Posted May 2, 2018 Interesting ride this morning. Quite balmy on the top of the ridge maybe 500-600 feet above the Mohawk on the south side, but descending the mile down the south face it dropped a good ten degrees as soon as it pitched over and I figured the valley floor would warm back up but it was like a cold air drain was happening. It was actually cooler than when I rode out that same road maybe an hour earlier. Nice breeze push downriver too. Even in town by the river it was cooler until I got about half way back up the hill to home. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Typhoon Tip Posted May 2, 2018 Author Share Posted May 2, 2018 there's a kinda quick and dirty rule of thumb, " ten after 10 " If we can put up an 80 spot in 20 minutes things are lookin' good for the 90 posterity but...this situation is also a little rare in that we have max heating potential that exceeds the starting plat-form, so the end result may over-achieve on those sort of baser tendencies. Later on in the summer if you want 100 ... look for " 90 by 9 " ... the thinking there is that it's harder to make the century mark as we tend to have more cloud contamination than say, Texas ...

OWD and FIT both 81 as of 9:45, too But the rule may be mutable more so than usual in this case because we are going for a favorable dip to a favorable acme in this case... 77 by 10 heh.

I'm curious...what does the green underbrush have to do with perhaps making it warmer? Is it the greening underbrush absorbs and radiates the heat back out at the surface??

Ginx snewx Posted May 2, 2018 Share Posted May 2, 2018 81/47 we cOC what a beautiful day, wish it were a day off to enjoy, being stuck inside in AC is a crime against humanity. Fri/Sat looks awesome though, cant wait. sunday is a trouble spot but after that we cOC as far as the eye can see, 60s and 70s low dews.

Is it the greening underbrush absorbs and radiates the heat back out at the surface?? It raises the near-sfc RH via evapotranspiration....it's easier to overperform temps when it is drier. So less green underbrush actually helps get warmer temps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's kind of a Rt 2 special with the WSW/W flow... I wonder also if SE of a Wilimantic CT-BOS get dimmed by the L.I. if the winds stays light could see base reflectivity wobbling a breeze interface in that area.

Ginx snewx Posted May 2, 2018 Share Posted May 2, 2018 South and SW winds started here now should moderate so 80s look good for the majority of Ct sans the death valley area which we know is always warmer all year with low snow totals too hence death valley Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ginx snewx Posted May 2, 2018 Share Posted May 2, 2018 On a negative note the friggin gnats black flies last night just before dark were nutz. wish we could do warm without stupid flies and Mosquitoes although I guess that's why many hide in AC.

But as I said a week ago, watch for the clouds and that may happen tomorrow. So, today will be the warmest day. I think most though tomorrow had the chance several days ago.
