Would losing 1,000+ ft elev in a dozen miles keep a funnel from touching ground, or have no effect? Nice line of showers moving into central Maine from the mts, though all the pretty colors separated and went N & S of the home front - doubt if we got more than a tenth or so. 1 minute ago, dendrite said: It may intensify it as it stretches and tightens. I had always thought going down the slope would help stretch an updraft, but I think latest research is showing mesos tightening up as they move up the slope instead. Loon webcam is down now.

Typhoon Tip Posted June 18, 2018 Share Posted June 18, 2018 1 hour ago, weatherwiz said: RAP/HRRR continue to really suggest enlarging hodographs as we move into the evening as stronger winds aloft move in. Also looks like a surge of higher theta-e air moving into western areas with a push of higher low-level moisture. that could help keep instability up there even for a few hours after sunset. Too bad lapse rates are awful but if some cell can get some updraft enhancement it will have lots to work with. but only after buying 'er supper - Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
klw Posted June 18, 2018 Share Posted June 18, 2018 Just poured here in St. J off and on during the afternoon. Some rumbles of thunder but nothing too menacing. Lots of water however. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ct_yankee Posted June 18, 2018 Share Posted June 18, 2018 You can see the storm pass on the loon cam by setting the time slider back, apparently everything was recorded... Semi-cool looking, I guess, but little in the way of obvious rotation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bobbutts Posted June 18, 2018 Share Posted June 18, 2018 Edit: Looks like they avoided severe weather, still pretty cool to watch the storm hit. You can rewind the vid and watch the action. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Loon webcam is down now. Cool. Learn something new everyday. edit...I haven’t seen the research, but is it some sort of frictional cyclonic aid deal? Then on the downstream side the friction is temporarily lost favoring anticyclonic behavior? Or is it something different altogether? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HoarfrostHubb Posted June 18, 2018 Share Posted June 18, 2018 Thunder just chased me out of my pool (which was chilly) Line is a bit west, near Orange and Athol but heading east. Hope to get a little rain Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm going to have to find that research now (maybe NROW?), but I can't recall exactly the mechanism, I just remember being surprised. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

radarman Posted June 18, 2018 Share Posted June 18, 2018 the first of the two cells that came along rt 202 was quite impressive and the SVR that was put on it was very much warranted from what I observed. The TOR warned cell was rain wrapped but really quite calm by comparison as it passed by. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bobbutts Posted June 18, 2018 Share Posted June 18, 2018 Some gusts and lightning strikes as the line came through left a mess of leaves and small branches everywhere. Didn't get close to severe criteria though, no hail, maybe a gust to 40. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
