wxeyeNH Posted May 15, 2018 Share Posted May 15, 2018 Clearing out nicely in the Southern half of VT and NH now. If I were the SPC perhaps I would have bumped this afternoon threat a bit more north as it is now clearing off nicely even up here. I'm going to guess they will issue a tornado watch for areas east of the new Severe Thunderstorm Watch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hoth Posted May 15, 2018 Share Posted May 15, 2018 Sky has that funny slightly darker blue hue to it today, like someone mixed a dash of payne's grey in it. Reminds me a lot of the look on June 1, 2011 to be honest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hoth Posted May 15, 2018 Share Posted May 15, 2018 To quote Lillo, "When was the last time there was a sixty percent wind prob without hatching?" Probably because it would qualify for a high risk designation? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They should start to weaken as they move SE through the state. Best chance of severe would be in Connecticut and Mass. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wxeyeNH Posted May 15, 2018 Share Posted May 15, 2018 Kind of interesting with the placement of this new tornado watch relative to the risk zones. Tornado Watch is a bit north of where I thought it would be. Even into S VT in areas SW of me that are were marginal. Makes sense with the solar insulation blasting away up here. Didn't think I would break out into the mostly sunny skies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Weatherexpert Posted May 15, 2018 Share Posted May 15, 2018 Lucky I am in Northern VT. It’s someone else’s turn to have their lawn ripped up (just kidding). With my luck a tornado would tear its way up to my lawn and rip out all of the landscaping progess I have made since those microbursts in the winter. Stay safe everyone and remember to bring all pets as well as children and any family indoors. Anyone who says the weather is boring during spring/summer is wrong and today is there to prove it!
