Man, ... okay okay, so it's not statistically on point to expect that, but still... 2 in 7 should be at least more active between Thanks giggedy and spendmas...with 1 and 10 down right performing. ...it's the 1:10 that we're due on.. and by that, pack the whole way... Gee say it like that, it's 1:28 I think 2010 is the last big Dec we had but don't quote me... Otherwise... 2007 and 2008 back to back were good front winters ... I think... I know the best I ever experienced was 1995 while living on campus at UML. We had still morning cold fall leaf litter in early November ... Rivulets of ice on the shade side of the Canal where the the water trickles from betwixt the granite blocks... And one afternoon 3:50 or so...with the sun oblique upon the western horizon, the ice still clung at 44 F ... Meanwhile, NYC couldn't get below 60 - kind of a gradient look I suspect... Either way, a week later we had 3-5 mix/snow/zr ... and that was it. No idea what Earth looked like until the super nova thaw of late January, '96... Now THAT is how you run an early loader. So was I. #1 front-loader here was 03-04, with 51% of the season's snow falling by Dec, 15, in 2 big gulps, 24" and 13". Farmington co-op was even more extreme with 65% by then, but that was fueled by their 40" measurement for the Dec. 6-7 blizzard while nobody else within 20 miles approached 30.

But yeah...south of the Pike looks solid. Also looks to me like storm motion may be right along the boundary which would prmote 1) training cells perhaps 2) enhanced SRH It took driving through the mountains of PA on Friday to experience the best storm in years...sitting in bumper to bumper traffic ontop of the mountain with cloud to ground strikes all around was amazing to experience, reminded me of the movie War of the Worlds.

BDL -1...etc. Its essentially normal today, not sure I’d have given today an above normal designation. Not sure what you mean by semantics ... But Boston's micro-marine climate that stands apart from the vaster expanse of SNE did them in with an ENE wind all day that didn't penetrate much west of down town... In this situation. I can understand ORH being hung up at -2 .... a day like today has huge low-lvl lapse rates/super adiabat written all over it.. . We're going to see big gaps between 1,000 feet compared to more typical warmer lower els with still solar max time of the year, light winds and low RH... BDL... agreed, essentially normal... (actually a head scratcher) These are not mere excuses...? you sort of inadvertently cherry picked data points that would certainly satisfy a cooler interpretation - BDL being the noteworthy exception. I am not making it up... it was hotter than normal at ASH-FIT/BED...to HFD... sites in the triangulum ... Either way, it's not how to run a 'convincing" cool pattern... Which isn't actually denying the cool pattern - not to confuse you. Seriously... I'm implicitly dancing around the freakshow global plague of heat... cool patterns are doing this... ending up average when meddling with the numbers over regional integrals...while warm ones blaze... But that's digression.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was specifically referencing the high temperatures in my original snark - he may have been looking at total diurnals... yeah I don't argue those...not even sure point blank. Yeah I was going daily departures unless otherwise specified... like PVD -2 min and 0 max. I was more looking at the overall picture of the 4 main BOX climo sites they list on the NOAA website... BDL, BOS, ORH, PVD. All of those look like today will register normal or a tick below for the total daily departures (on the backs of the mins at BDL/PVD and maxes at ORH/BOS). I didn’t look into TAN/ASH/FIT etc. I get what you’re going for Tip, because I agree. What seems like the cold shot or whatever is verifying around pretty close to normal on the daily departure, with some sites above normal on the maxes. So the “cool down” in this climate is just getting back to baseline. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

powderfreak Posted August 6, 2019 Share Posted August 6, 2019 Social media reminded me of a thunderstorm from 5 years ago. This thing rocked us at the picnic tables (hikers and lift riders actually eating lunch on picnic tables on the Octagon Deck). View is looking south down the spine of the northern Greens... storm got juiced in the Champlain Valley and exploded over the western slopes. I remember thinking the windows were going to break on the lift building. Good-sized hail coming in at sustained 60mph up there at 3,600ft, it was like kids were throwing handfuls of rocks at the window with every gust. Of course, everything in weather is a little more crazy at that elevation. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
