Could've rode this guy like a horse. I will see your bear and raise you two hawks. I’m actually not sure if they are hawks or Falcons, definitely not red tail hawks though.

Did they blow a seemingly locked lead in a super bowl? If not, then they can’t be Falcons. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And all the windows were open. Maybe living in a hermetically sealed house like DIT isn’t such a bad thing at all. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TauntonBlizzard2013 Posted July 16, 2022 Share Posted July 16, 2022 Just checked the closest USGS observation well to my house (about 1-1.5 miles from me) and the last reading was late June. Ground water levels were pretty much well within the norm, going back ten years. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Torch Tiger Posted July 16, 2022 Author Share Posted July 16, 2022 Let's goooo! Think the better shot for strong/severe storms comes Thursday as a mid level lapse rates are around 6-7 degrees Celsius per km and similar low level lapse rates to Wednesday. Will see MUCAPE values between 1000-2500 J/kg with deep layer shear in the 30-50 kt range with the cold front moving in. Still a bit early to dive too deeply into the exact hazards, but think there could be a severe risk here especially given the latest CIPS Severe Analogs. Stay tuned to future updates.

powderfreak Posted July 16, 2022 Share Posted July 16, 2022 Had a low of 50F, comfortable sleeping weather looks like it’s on its way out. Windows cool the place down to the low/mid 60s but looking like we’ll have to artificially cool it off soon. Already 70/55. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tamarack Posted July 16, 2022 Share Posted July 16, 2022 Low of 48 this AM, now approaching 80. My preferred summer wx, especially if precip is average or better.

Having my daughters 5th bday party 50 people coming in 5 min and there is a stationary downpour over my house the past hour and a half. Best to think of next week as entering a new regime - not that you're not...just sayn'. Plan on the sensible and empirical weather as being pretty discernibly different than pretty much anything we've experience, across New England since the end of May. Vestiges of that 6 week pattern persistence appear to remain ..in the form of a flat nadir over SE Canada. It's hard to know whether that is a pattern relaxation aspect, or if it is just the perennial North American pattern ( PNAP ) occurring in the absence of any other large scale forcing, ...but, in either reality ...we bleed in high DPs and occasional hot days, with [probably] noticeably muggy conditions in the in between days. That'll probably take us into the end of the months as a character. A time during which - imho - the region will probably go some distance in recovering any perceived or measurable hydro deficits. I mean ..we're looking at a bath of +PWAT anomalies stacked in the sky below 700 mb itching for triggers that the models don't pull beyond 30 or so hour very well. That comes down to butterflies f'n' ... who knows when they're horny. If there anything like Weatherwiz, we'll be building Arks though. If they're Kevin and his bestest BFFy, Epstein, ... we'll get healthy convective rain recovery while fielding diametric realism posts about the ongoing cracked Earth. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But this is probably what the dust bowl progs would’ve looked like. Mixed up to H6 at 9z and close to getting into that 400mb mixed layer. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You know ... last year, prior to the Pac NW bread baker event, I'm pretty sure the models began signaling absurdities, too. Just sayn' These models ( you know this but for the average reader ) don't prog physically impossible solutions. They may prog solutions harder to realize for other 'emergent' offsetting factors that are not really predetermine-able.. .but, something peculiar is going on out there because that 5-7d aspect you mention, where the physics and inputs they are working with are flagging that we're 'playing with fire' - you gotta wonder if we're counting on the unforeseeable emerging offset as protection. Meanwhile, SE of Wales is objectively forecast to breach 40C this week... so, the era of the "syntergistic heat waves" is clearly upon us ...not having to wait to 2040 for the climate models to be right about that... get me started - 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
