July 2018 Obs and Discussion

Three lines of storm so far looks like another is coming in

Yeah, actually did not realize it was more than one line, just thought it was a very long back end. Yes theres another line NW of here but it will probably die out before reaching here, the temp has dropped significantly and instability is pretty low if any at all.

Speaking of the possible system this weekend 18z GFS has a fully close LP and it tries to develop before turning into the area, this should be interesting to watch if it happens.

12z GFS run, has a definite closed clow, but is it a TS? The pressure is just enough to be a low end TS verbatim, but as sroc said probably will become cold core, still def interesting. Makes a hook right into NYC. At that time stamp I will be finishing up seeing Jeff Dunham at Mohegan Sun in CT (which a apocalyse could be going on outside and you wouldn't know it), I am therefore hoping if anything good happens its later into Sunday or Monday.

.84" of rain and some strong winds yesterday, no damage that I've heard about, just fun to watch it blow through. Not liking the forecast for next week, looks wet. We have our ambulance carnival next week, Tuesday-Saturday

NYC had major flooding and a funnel cloud that did not touch down.

I had over 5 inches here

wow...we had an inch we got just as the clouds started rolling in..glad we made it before the storm hit..would have dropped dead if I saw a funnel cloud while on the boat..lol

This weekends system will likely be nothing more than a summer Nor Easter type conditions. The eastern side of the LP center could experience gale force winds and maybe the rare stronger gusts, but as of now Im not too sure about anything worse than that. Jon I think we should keep discussion in here for now unless this becomes a named storm which it likely will not.

agreed my friend

One thing I will say when looking at the NAM and RGEM, ie: short range hi res models, is they may be hinting at a more dynamic system.  It still wont change the big picture idea, but like we saw all winter some of the more dynamic systems needed to be in close for the sr models to see the true details of the system.  We shall see.  Weather will still be unsettled most if not all of next week up and down the EC.  While not every location will see rain every day, there will be chances of rain almost every day next week.  With a moist unsettled airmass in place any trigger will incite the threat of rain and or thunder storms.

Sometimes those meso models sniff it out

If we get a nhc spot marked on the off chance put that here?

How's everyone summer been so far?

Looks like we're going to run into a period of overcast and rainy conditions later this weekend into next week :/

Fun while it lasted.

Wow

3km nam at hr 60 has 850 mb winds at 64kts and very strong convection with a def spin to it
We will see.

18z 3KM nam creams PA with tons of rain NYC surrounding areas and east see almost nothing. Gores right up the Chesapeake like a magnet to the little water there is, 850mb winds are pretty impressive for a weak system too showing some areas with 64kt winds (yes I know this is not surface).  It stays well west pretty much over land. GFS has it a bit more over the water giving a heavy strip of 2-3 inches of rain for CT.

Recent posts from JB, he seems to feel it will be TS conditions puts it at 70%, probably no name.



JB tweet: from Monday on http://weatherbell.com why before the what on July gale on weekend, Latest NAM for Sat evening Euro depression Probability now over 90%, TS 70% (behind paywall) Will likely never get a name, but for several hours will seem like TS where it hits Sat night

Latest tweet: (says 1960 Brenda analog? Baroclinic process set off feature Friday, it feeds back and named or not should produce several hours of tropical storm conditions near and east of the path which should ride the coast Delmarva to Long Island Sat night, No surprise, Brenda 1960 analog

There is our storm building over the SE coast in the distance as I sit on the beach in Myrtle Beach, SC flying in manana.

Yeah, kinda, its not going to be a epic storm by any means probably. Still interesting to track and I love seeing that spin form even if it is just a LP. you know your a weather geek if you considering canceling your plans to see Jeff Dunham (no charge they are free tickets) and a comped Sat at the casino in CT to be able to watch the weather LOL, eastern CT might actually get buffeted pretty good though so maybe i should go and go down to New London at night if anythings going on, I dunno.  Ahh the decisions of a weather nut.  But it appears to def be timed around late sat night into sunday then lingering rains all week as frank said.  barring any major changes of course. Maybe it stalls grows to a Cat 5 offshore of NYC and never moves anywhere, that would be terrible.

How do you know maybe that could is something else, who made you mr know it all LOL, JK looks nice.

sroc, being its likely not going to be a tropical system, do you see the NHC putting up a spot? I would have thought by now they would, but the 5 day is clear so I am guessing they are considiering it like most a nor easter like system. But it certainly looks on the models like a tropical LP.

OY, we have our carnival next week, Tues- Sat. Hopefully the rain will come during the day leaving nights clear for zeppoles and rides!
