I have noticed that there are several threads on the storms that have been hitting various parts of the lake. Since I am temporally house bound, I have taken to watching the weather forecasts and weather channel. I discovered that by going to www.weather.com and downloading the desktop weather link I can watch the weather forecast for Wolfeboro (any zip code), get an hourly forecast and zero in on the radar. I have found these to be reasonably accurate.
If a storm is over Plymouth on the radar, it seems to hit some part of the lake.
It was obvious where the Moultonborough/Ossipee storm was going last week. I watched it in the distance follow the north/east side of the mountain. Yesterday the Belknap storm was on the screen on that side of the lake.
The hour forecast gives a reasonable account of when to expect the storms. Todays doesn’t help much since it is scattered t-storms all day and high temps. 2-4 o’clock.

I would love to be storm running in my boat. You have to do this safely by giving yourself plenty of time to get off the lake.
