Ryan sighting!

Showers and isolated non-severe storms possible tomorrow afternoon into Thursday morning.

Hey noreaster! Won't be long before we are all back! Hey Frank look at the HRRR, one of my buddies who is a meterologist in CT said its been doing pretty well lately. Looks like those storms could be fairly nasty. Are those moving east or NE, if NE could miss the area. NYC anyways.

That's pretty surprising. Let's see how radar looks a couple hours from now. That looks a little overdone.

by **jmanley32** Wed Jul 23, 2014 1:00 pm

YEah I was surprised too but, Accuwx and even SPC has storms for the area and HWO calls for strong to isolated severe, wind being main issue and flash flooding. I am not too famililar with the HRRR so I can't comment on if it is accurate or not. So far radar is pretty clpear except up near Canada.

by **Frank_Wx** Wed Jul 23, 2014 1:04 pm

Well SPC has a slight risk northwest of NYC. We may see storms but nothing too severe

by **jmanley32** Wed Jul 23, 2014 1:46 pm

Look at the HRRR cape values, pushing 3000+ around city, that does seem overdone.

Actually judging from that SPC map of cape shear etc ytou gave me frank these numbers are not far off.

by **Quietace** Wed Jul 23, 2014 4:03 pm

Pretty solid CAPE and lift in the southern areas.

by **Quietace** Wed Jul 23, 2014 4:07 pm

Precipitable water values only around 1.6 1.7, not too high.

Blinding cloud to ground lightning

by **jmanley32** Wed Jul 23, 2014 9:06 pm

Its incredible! I am watching it just south of here! Seen so many amazing strikes and cloud to cloud.

Walking around Morris Park area of the bx it definitely was a torrential downpour for at least 20 mins followed by light rain.

by **Dunnzoo** Wed Jul 23, 2014 11:17 pm

We had a very heavy downpour at about 8:25 pm lots of lightning and decent winds...I was working the carnival and we had to shut down early...got 2.5 hours in though....still so very uncomfortable out...

by **amugs** Thu Jul 24, 2014 11:25 pm

68* here tonight - gorgeous weather -WOW is all I can say - it feels like late August no more like September - i do not want it to be September for I would have to go to school - boo hoo!!

by **algae888** Fri Jul 25, 2014 12:29 am

mugs after such an extreme winter what a tranquil summer. I love it! it s so calm that the people who like summer weather (ie: t/storms and hurricanes) are hyping every drop of rain and gust of wind. long range looks even calmer. if this keeps up it may be one of the quietest summers in terms of severe weather that we have ever experienced
