Goodbye Rain Deficit...

When I last posted at 2 pm, the heaviest storms were over the North Shore with the southern part of the band of rain far weaker.  But as Emeril often says...Bamm!  The southern part exploded with nearly 4" falling between 3-5 PM.

That kind of intensity will overwhelm the pumps and widespread street flooding followed.

This was the view of the empty lot across the street from me.   The main energy with this front is way north of us as the water vapor shows.

In fact, this line of storms was NOT the front which will stall out right over us.  That should result in some dense fog of tomorrow morning.  Several upper disturbances will trigger more rounds of rain mainly Friday through Sunday.  Hopefully we'll not see the kind of intensity we saw today.

This is the model prediction for 500 mb (18,000') on Monday.   That will drive down the coldest air of the season with freezing temps possible north of Lake P. next week.  For now let's dry out and enjoy Thanksgiving the best we can in the year of the virus.  Stay tuned!
