susqushawn Posted July 27, 2018 Report Share Posted July 27, 2018 Post 'em if you got 'em. ...Portions of Mid-Atlantic/New England... Widely scattered to scattered thunderstorms should develop around midday to early afternoon over the higher terrain from northern WV to eastern NY and northern New England. This will occur as diabatic heating of higher terrain preferentially weakens MLCINH, amidst subtle low-level convergence near the prefrontal trough. Activity should increase in coverage through the remainder of the afternoon, filling into a northeast/southwest-oriented belt of scattered to numerous thunderstorms. The main threats will be damaging wind, some of which may become severe, along with sporadic hail. Small-scale shots of DCVA are possible from subtle vorticity lobes orbiting the main cyclone, and much of the outlook area will be under the right-entrance region of an 85-95-kt, cyclonically curved 250-mb jet. Associated destabilized lapse rates aloft will not be as steep as in an EML, with forecast soundings showing generally 6-7 deg C/km above the boundary layer. Still, when combined with favorable low-level moisture/theta-e and diurnal surface heating, they will support the development of MLCAPE around 1000-1500 J/kg over northern New England, to 2500-3000 J/kg over the Delmarva region where boundary-layer moisture content will be greatest. 35-40-kt effective-shear magnitudes should be common over the region, amidst generally small hodographs and weak directional shear. This favors dominant quasi-linear, multicellular modes, though some supercell characteristics may appear in discrete cells before upscale mergers occur.

I got clipped by the tail end of that cell that went through Souderton. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tombo82685 Posted July 27, 2018 Report Share Posted July 27, 2018 this looks more like a heavy rain issue now than anything severe. Can't rule out isolated severe storm, but I think severe aspect is fading, if it even ever started to begin with 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cbelke Posted July 27, 2018 Report Share Posted July 27, 2018 Agreed, more show than anything I think. Long rumbles of thunder, but nothing in regard to high winds or anything really with any velocity. Cloud tops are in the 25K to 30K ft range, with a few 40K ft'ers out by Reading. Any confirmed reports of hail yet? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
