Hoping for a break for mowing later. Similar here. Some bangers around 5:30. Some rain, maybe some hail based on the noises on my bedroom AC, but pretty meh. I need to mow today as well.

weatherwiz Posted June 29, 2019 Share Posted June 29, 2019 Meh not very impressed. Looks like the pre-frontal is already pretty close. HRRR has it move through around 2 PM. Might even be a bit earlier than that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

weatherwiz Posted June 29, 2019 Share Posted June 29, 2019 I wonder if today would be a case where you don’t want a ton of heating. If sfc winds and llvl winds become west with the passage of the pre-frontal maximum mixing would promote drying and lowering dews. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If sfc winds and llvl winds become west with the passage of the pre-frontal maximum mixing would promote drying and lowering dews. ...It's one of the balancing/off-setting facets I thought of too... but I don't think so - The wind fields are light...like, not blowing anywhere. I think with sufficient heating we would be fine. The gradient is too weak for organized katabatic flow/drying and lee side trough focusing ... May not have helped shear requirements .. .but, the 'scouring' concern would be alleviated - Today is a cloud-deck butt bang. Nothing else. At least ...so far that is the case. We'll see going forward, but ... mitigation from lack of insolation will persist ...until the sky coverage begins to behave like the models suggested they would. Otherwise, bust - and it won't be because of any of the other reasons discussed heretofore, either. Like I warned yesterday ... SPC is cagey up our way for good reason. The environment goes out and for lack of better frustration ... creates reason not to get it done. We have a kind of curse micro climate of finding any plausible excuse not to convect - and doing that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is still quite a bit of MLCIN and the pre-frontal trough is slowly approaching...even seeing some precip across N CT.

Man... you just won't give up on the pre-frontal trough mantra I dunno - I checked out SPC's meso analysis and there is a broadly defined trough structure but emphasis on broad... That means not well defined. The gradient still also looks weak ... It's hard to separate that look, which is -btw- is entirely normal lee-side of elevation fluid mechanics .., from that same time of structure becoming an evacuating moving object in the atmosphere.

It certainly is weak...no doubt. Its just we’ve been screwed so many times in the past with these and how they’re timed.

Typhoon Tip Posted June 29, 2019 Share Posted June 29, 2019 Keep in mind also ... you could be getting fooled by the fact that we had 4am to 7 am rains showers/thunder traverse the area, and that may be conditionally hiking theta-e now that the sun is finding it's way more to the Earth; evaporation and limited lower BL mixing ( as noted by the weak wind fields ) is may be faux elevating east of the Berks.
