General Severe Weather Discussion 2018

Man I am so pissed at myself... When the base of that cell first appeared over the buildings of New Haven it had fantastic structure, looked like a meso from the plains, classic... But I have a brand new phone with a new (and much nicer) camera - that apparently I have no idea how to use! I fumbled around for about 15 minutes trying to get the damned thing to use the outward camera rather than the one for selfies... By the time I figured it out the structure I wanted to photograph was gone, the meso fell completely apart, not even a decent shelf to show for my troubles...

Really impressive, but then totally garden variety by the time I got the shot... Damn it. Cell is not even remotely severe now. Friggin' technology, smartphones, who needs 'em... Bah! My crappy old camera would have gotten the pic easily. Ah well...

Isn’t it nice to have sun? You guys are the cloudiest place on earth. 

Ha yeah people have noticed the sun.  Its weird, the mountains often in the summer go through long stretches of afternoon t-storms and clouds that billow up around 1pm off the terrain...but not this year.  Just been dry dry dry.  

Thank god it isn't winter lol.  

Just saw the Underhill, VT CoCoRAHS station that is often one of the wettest spots in the state on Mansfield's west slope has had only 2.22" of rain since July 1st.  That's unheard of there during the summer months where storms unload moisture as they move from humid Champlain Valley air into the 4,000ft wall.  

Meanwhile down in Wilmington, VT by Mount Snow that station has had over 15" of water in that same time.

Another day, another miss for me.   .02".   8.37" in past 100 days.  I bet Brian 25 miles south of me has double my t amount.  Just enough rain to keep the grass green but pond remains dry and daylilies have brownish leaves.  Still have not had a T storm this year.  I bet there has not been a lightning strike within 5 miles of my house yet.  I find it so interesting that 40 miles south in places like Concord just keep getting storm after storm.  Luck will change for me then all bets will be off as Mother Nature balances things out.  When is the question???.
