  1. Storm popped up just to my east, has drifted north into PA with thunder
  2. Heads up to anyone traveling 83 in the Northern Balt Co -- 83S is shutdown due to a tractor trailer fire that is under the York Road overpass. I imagine 83N is a mess, and I also imagine York Road will be closed at some point so they can inspect the overpass.
  3. nahhhh. maybe next year for the big 4-0 you can call me old. tomorrow is boring.
  4. Any opportunity to call Andy old is perfect in my book
  5. Stuff firing up out west near Cumberland and down to Harrisonburg, so guess we shall see how it all develops. Good luck all
  6. lot of CU out west, shame we have stupid clouds now.
  7. yeah, but its such a large area under the MD, it's hard to say how great it will be for us. SPC discussion on it isn't super great for us. Current expectations are for thunderstorms to continue developing across the higher terrain of the Appalachians, and perhaps the surface lee trough, as weak ascent associated with an upper trough/low centered over the Great Lakes overspreads the Mid-Atlantic. Convection is already ongoing across parts of PA and western/southern NY, with a measured severe gust recently recorded at KDKK in far western NY. Weaker forcing across the Carolinas casts some uncertainty regarding overall thunderstorm coverage with southward extent. Better mid-level flow around the base of the upper trough/low should tend to remain over the Carolinas through the day. 30-40 kt of deep-layer shear across NC/SC will support some threat for supercells and large hail with initial development. Across the Mid-Atlantic, effective bulk shear should be somewhat weaker, generally in the 20-30 kt range. Mainly multicells/clusters should be the dominant mode across this region, with perhaps isolated/marginal supercells possible. Wherever enough clearing can occur to promote steep low-level lapse rates, a threat for damaging downdraft winds will exist. Multiple corridors of potentially greater coverage of scattered to numerous damaging gusts are evident based on observational and short-term guidance trends. One such possible corridor is across eastern PA into NJ. Multiple Severe Thunderstorm Watches will likely be needed this afternoon across the Mid-Atlantic and Carolinas to address the increasing threat for damaging winds and severe hail.
  8. 95% watch possible on the new MD just issued by SPC
  9. a decaying system always works in our favor, right?
  10. So on the flip side, if they didn't make those comments and it did end up being a really bad severe day, media would never hear the end of the complaints.
  11. No problem with dews this morning, 70/69. But its cloudy lol
  12. Had a couple rounds of storms yesterday that closely missed, but did hear a few good rumbles of thunder.
  13. Woke up to a heavy shower, .29” since midnight, 1.23” since Tuesday, up to 2.11” for June
  14. That heavier batch over Olney isn’t moving very quickly.
  15. Eventually my softball season will start, but don't think it will be tonight.
  16. .82" since Tuesday, 1.7" for June
  17. In Pasadena for the day, just started raining here.
