mappy

I think its good. If we send EAS alerts for flash flood warnings and tornado warnings, then we should do so for severe (80+ mph wind) thunderstorms too. The general public hardly pays attention as it is, whether its newscasts or warnings issued, so having this extra layer of communication hopefully will help curb the "it came without warning!" bullshit.

lot of derecho mentions on twitter this AM for Wisconsin and points southeast. for us: ...Mid-Atlantic Vicinity... Modest deep-layer northwesterly flow will be in place today as an upper trough pivots eastward off the Atlantic coast. A very moist airmass is in place with dewpoints generally from the upper 60s to mid 70s F. Strong heating will result in strong destabilization during the afternoon. Nebulous large-scale ascent is forecast, and should limit coverage, with isolated thunderstorm development expected during the afternoon/evening. While low-level winds will be light, southerly flow beneath northwesterly winds aloft will result in moderate effective shear magnitudes, aiding in at least briefly organized cells/clusters. Steep low-level lapse rates and high PW values will support isolated damaging gusts through early evening.

Congrats on the rain!

This. Please!

Yay Monday after being out of work for a week. Throw in two dogs with suspected kennel cough (and probably the third too though no coughing from her yet) and a kid who spent all day Sunday throwing up.

Mr Map mowed Saturday the 17th, then we were away. Grass didn't grow, much, while we were gone so I assume any storms that happened during the week didn't hit the house. The rain last night was welcomed.

picked up .80 from those storms that dropped out of PA last night

Beautiful morning in Salisbury. Those low dews

Thanks, storm incoming now

Oh?

Got an alert about the watch for home. Would be our luck to miss storms

Slight risk for me down in Salisbury.

Thanks! Down on the lower eastern shore now, huge difference in the level of smoke from my area compared to Salisbury. We could barely make out downtown Baltimore when we traveled over the Key Bridge. Could make out the high rises and nothing else, on a clear day you can see beyond the city from the bridge.

Pretty smoky up my way today, just a dense haze. Hint of smell of it. Woke up congested too, not sure if related.

Drive north, been sunny up my way all morning

At least the week looks storm free.

.91 last evening with round 3

Sweet

Warning on that storm for my backyard

I swear if this somehow misses me

Line 2 was a miss, just sprinkles. Hoping the stuff out west hangs on as it heads east

Thank you all

The split from the line in MD to the piece in PA, is happening over my head Hope a second line comes through

Towers went up and helped block out the sun, he finished as the first rumble of thunder happened. Though looks like I won’t see rain out of it.

Our pool needs water, told mr map to see what we can get today before filling with our crap well water, fingers crossed. poor guy just went out to mow, it’s quite hot
