Wow, dude. You woke up early!

AlphaSnacks 05-31-2011 06:12 PM

Tomorrow's looking to be very warm again. There may be some showers early in the day, but it should be clear and sunny by 8PM! We'll keep an eye out on the weather, but assuming everything's clear...I'll be there.

isolated thunderstorms for tonight....hmmm

AlphaSnacks 06-01-2011 11:42 AM

They've been saying isolated storms for 2 weeks straight. Isolated usually means distant showers in the water. There were isolated showers on Saturday too. But it was beautiful and clear. =D

If the weather is clear, we'll definitely be there. It is looking very likely, no worries.

I'll keep an eye out on the weather.

Hate to break it to you, but Arnold is no meteorologist.

National Weather Service forecasters will forecast "isolated" thunderstorms when they are pretty certain that storms are going to form, but only expect them to affect about 10% of the area. In other words, 90% of the area won't get wet.

Not the exact definition, but it has nothing to do with forming over water.

You're welcome. :bowrofl:

Econ 06-01-2011 12:35 PM

ok, now this is getting a little overwhelming.


good info kielbasa

AlphaSnacks 06-01-2011 12:41 PM

What Kielbasa said was true, but for all of last week, every isolated storm was north of us and barely any even made a blip on the radars.

Scattered are more likely to just affect 10% of an area, where as isolated storms normally never even happen.

For example, there is a storm cloud to the west of us now, heading east. It's track right now shows it'll cut through the Long Island sound/Atlantic Ocean and possibly clip southern Connecticut. That's what I meant by isolated showers usually end up over water. If the clouds look like they have a chance of raining over NY (but are more on track to north or south of us), I've noticed that weather reports will say isolated.

If there are a few scattered clouds directly on path to us, then the reports will say scattered storms.

AlphaSnacks 06-01-2011 12:47 PM

This is worrying though. There are scattered predictions, which have turned to a tornado warning?
