FXWX Posted December 10 Share Posted December 10 29 minutes ago, WinterWolf said: how’s it look John for us inland peeps here in CT. I think lowest of elevations 40-45 mph, 500 to 1,000' 45-50 (low grade risk 50+); 1,000+ ft 50+ mph; coastal plain (especially eastern) 60+. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AstronomyEnjoyer Posted December 10 Share Posted December 10 30.0°/29.8°, Little burst of ZR pushing through. Trees are still completely caked with snow, thankfully that'll all be washed away before the wind hits. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ineedsnow Posted December 10 Share Posted December 10 Strong to Damaging Winds... A very powerful southerly LLJ will develop, peaking about 5 standard deviations above normal. Winds at 925 mb peak about 60-80 kt, which is not that common this time of year. Converted the High Wind Watches to High Wind Warnings and Wind Advisories. The southerly wind direction complicates things greatly. Questions remain on the depth of the mixed layer farther inland, as well as the impact of friction knocking down wind speeds as well. Have the greatest confidence in high winds across southern RI into eastern MA, then north along the immediate east coast of MA. Much of the rest of southern New England converted to Wind Advisories. Further tweaks to headlines may come with later forecasts. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lava Rock Posted December 10 Share Posted December 10 The S/SW winds in excess of 35mph makes our large window panes flex pretty nicely. Thought I recall reading they are rated for 70+. but don't really know for sure. Thought crosses my mind of blow outs with big southerly winds as prow of house faces due south. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tamarack Posted December 10 Share Posted December 10 GYX has been emphatic that, given current info, this event won't be a repeat of last December 17-18. From GYX AFD PWATs of 1.25-1.4" across the region indicate ample moisture moves into the region, with dewpoints making it into the 50s by the end of the day. These PWATs and dewpoints rival the December 18th flood last year. Despite this comparison, this flood will NOT have the severity of December 2023. This is due to a less favorable upslope enhancement pattern, in addition to the more progressive nature of the upcoming storm meaning the storm will likely move much quicker through New England than what was seen on December 18th last year. For more details, please read the `Hydrology` section. from ‘Hydrology’ Questions have been raised about this event in comparison to last December. This flood will NOT have the severity of December 2023. There is more storage for runoff with low stream levels across most of the region, the storm will be more progressive, and the snowmelt from the mountains will be less. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ginx snewx Posted December 10 Share Posted December 10 6 hours ago, weatherwiz said: That's because even after all these years nobody can still seem to grasp the lines themselves don't produce big wind...it is always along the leading edge of the torrential rain. You get a massive gust of wind then a brief lull of quietness then it pours cats and buckets which quickly stabilizes the atmosphere. I would argue the best gusts often come post frontal in the dry slot Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm on the road a lot for work, I've seen plenty of northbound generators but not the rows of line trucks... either their weather people have said don't spend the money or they're actually not ready.

wxeyeNH Posted December 10 Share Posted December 10 30.6F Light freezing rain. The driveway is a sheet of black ice. I got 3.75" of snow last night and the pack is now around 9". Will the warm air get up here? Usually CAD wins at my location. I'm guessing a couple of hours of warmth, maybe the best right after fropa. How much of my pack will be left? I guess it depends if the tropical air gets in here or not. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You'll probably end with an ice pack, probably last to April as a base. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
