But even down in CT...can't really remember anything significant since 98...although there might have been a decent one in 2002? Don't ever bring up November 2002 again!!

There were some power outages and a few fatalities. I think I may actually remember that...didn't that really crush Litchfield County and NW HFD cty? 9 minutes ago, Collinsville said: Don't ever bring up November 2002 again!!

weatherwiz Posted December 13, 2019 Share Posted December 13, 2019 I'm pretty intrigued by the severe weather potential Monday....especially down in LA where initiation looks to begin...best chance for supercells initially...have to see how quickly the llvl flow backs.

weatherwiz Posted December 13, 2019 Share Posted December 13, 2019 Actually what could make things really interesting in the south is it looks like there is a pretty decent EML that advects in from the Mexican Plateau. Remember that sounding game we were playing months back? Time to play it again...that's a pretty solid sounding for December...anywhere in the country. Could be an early start to the severe Monday morning across LA...I could see tornadic supercells initiating quickly then becoming linear and producing a damaging squall line through TN and GA!!!!

weatherwiz Posted December 13, 2019 Share Posted December 13, 2019 Where's @OceanStWx I actually don't know a whole lot about Mexican EML's but I think they're different than EML's originated in the southwest U.S. Obviously the processes are the same but I wonder what the differences are between Mexican EML and southwest US EML.

My pet peeve is when we get 8" of rain, and someone like snow88 will explain how much snow we would have gotten if it were 20 degrees colder...with blatant disregard for the compromised ability of colder air to hold moisture. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dendrite Posted December 13, 2019 Share Posted December 13, 2019 With high terrain to our nw it’s easy to squeeze out the precip with S and E flow...especially when it jacks up the PWATs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That analogy gets tossed around by many more then just him, You here that all the time by folks that are not a into weather that always say can you imagine if this was all snow?

If you have at least some background of weather you should know not to make that connection...it's much more understandable for the general public to say that.
