Based on what I read from the tweet I saw on Twitter it sounded like it. Said it will go down as the first storm of the year (but maybe I misunderstood). Didn't that storm go warm core for a period? I seem to recall that... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I also remember my work parking lot in Norwood was underwater a good 1-2ft. I had always thought it was like 08 or 09, but my memory could be f'dup March 2010 maybe? I think that flooded the airport at KOWD too. This storm actually flooded rt 1 in Saugus. Like a mile of it was under water. I think Newburyport had 20" of rain in 4-5 days.

HoarfrostHubb Posted May 12, 2023 Share Posted May 12, 2023 That Jan storm was not named. Just assigned a number/system ID 692 NOUS41 KNHC 111500 PNSNHC Public Information Statement NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL 1100 AM EDT Thu May 11 2023 ...NHC Determines That a Subtropical Storm Formed in the Atlantic Basin in Mid-January 2023... Through the course of typical re-assessment of weather systems in the National Hurricane Center's (NHC) area of responsibility, NHC hurricane specialists have determined that an area of low pressure that formed off the northeastern coast of the United States in mid-January should be designated as a subtropical storm. Specific information on the justification for the subtropical storm designation, as well as the system's synoptic history and impacts, will be available in a Tropical Cyclone Report, which will likely be issued during the next couple of months. This subtropical storm is being numbered as the first cyclone of 2023 in the Atlantic basin and will be given AL012023 as its system ID. As a result, the next system that forms in 2023 in the Atlantic basin will be designated as AL022023, and advisories will be issued in AWIPS bin 2 (e.g., Public Advisories will be issued under AWIPS header TCPAT2 and WMO header WTNT32 KNHC). If the system begins as a tropical depression, then it would be given the designation 'TROPICAL DEPRESSION TWO', and if it becomes a tropical storm, it would be given the name 'ARLENE'. National Weather Service policy (through NWS Instruction 10-607, Section 1) allows for marginal subtropical systems to be handled in real-time as non-tropical gale or storm events in NWS High Seas Forecast products. This was the procedure followed for the unnamed subtropical storm in mid-January. However, the lack of real-time issuance of advisories does not preclude NHC from retroactively designating these systems as a subtropical cyclones in post-analysis, if necessary. $$ Hurricane Specialist Unit 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A combo of Kevin and Red Hot Chili Peppers. I'm even putting words to it. "Californication" is such a great and somewhat overlooked album. It's actually how I introduced my kid to the Chili Peppers. "By the Way" is a pretty damn good album too. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wxmanmitch Posted May 12, 2023 Share Posted May 12, 2023 ++BLFL (Heavy, heavy black flies), 71/52° F. I don't think I recall them ever being this bad, and they're bad every year about now. There are literally dozens of them crawling on my arm at any given time if I spend anytime outdoors. Here I am looking like an idiot continuously helplessly waving my electric bug zapper tennis racquet thingy through the air. Nothing works against them. Alas, yard work must get done and there's lots of dirt to move again this year. Tons of vernal pools for the black flies to just reproduce in thanks to that 42" snowstorm in mid March that had over 4" of LE. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's getting a bit ridiculous the obsession with "dry weather" the past few years. You would think we average like 80'' of rain a year. We're also transitioning from more synoptically driven to convectively driven precipitation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
