One more sleep until the beach!!!!!!!!!

Mindy will probably cause swells too for the first few days of our trip, but we will be fine. Cannot wait to go
-
My beach forecast looking good for most of next week Temps in the low 80s along the coast, nights near 70, rain chances to end the week but that's okay.

1.1” from last nights storms

Same for me! The Gettysburg and north part was booming. Constant flashes, anvil crawlers, even some shooting out the top.

2021 Mid-Atlantic Severe Weather - General Discussion

Nice light show for the passed hour, first the stuff that went through Gettysburg, then the line that filled in. Rumbling to my west now -
you're now comparing apples to oranges. ACE isn't used for tornadoes
-
I'm not familiar with it.
-
no, storm size isn't a parameter when calculating ACE
-
Are you me from my junior year of college? I did an end of the year project on ACE values from hurricane seasons and their correlation to the winters that follow
-
Its a good observation. Our 'severe' storms are lame compared to the plains lol. Its also worth noting that we've had two tropical systems come through, prompting quite a few warnings.
-
I briefly went through only those within LWX out of 50 warnings only 9 produced tornadoes 3 on 5/3 1 on 6/3 2 on 7/1 3 on 9/1

Cloudy cool rainy

Damn right. Did a ton of yard work we’ve been ignoring. After all the rain the weeds came up pretty easily

Homeowner looking out backdoor, tornado is off to his right behind trees but you can hear the roar. 2 min or so later it hits his house, he and dog are in basement. House shakes, alarms going off, pitch black. He comes upstairs and walks to that front of house window to see what just came through. the video is 3:45 min long. That tornado was moving really fast. Scary.

Nightmare fuel. For as much as I love following the weather, I am terrified of tornadoes and flash flooding after seeing everything they can do.

Oops, meant to post this here in banter
-
This is a really good thread
-
The apartments that flooded in Rockville, the water was up to peoples chins in their apartments, and those weren't even underground.
-
the three that died was an 80 something yr old, the toddler and the toddler's parent (I believe) So yeah, I think in that case you have only one able bodied person to deal with what was happening... so sad.
-
I read a story last night about a woman in NYC in a 1st floor apartment with water up to her thighs. She reported that a family of three below her all drowned, including a 2-year old. She suspects (based on other reports from those in basement apartments) that the water was coming in so fast that they couldn't open the door to their apartment to get out.
-
I mean, how do you flee from this? that's not just a trickle of water
-
at least one. 19 year old drowned in their apartment. not sure if the other person who was unaccounted for was found or not.
