Daaaaang...

Definitely the heaviest downpour since last night! Guess it's trying to go out with a bang, lol Can you imagine having this all day??

Guess this is probably the last moderate/heavy burst of rain here in the city! We've been most shielded aside from last night's burst (that I apparently slept right through). Yeah we get out of it without damage...but ya know me...woulda loved a little more weather excitement (but without injuries! )

I have mixed feelings...I mean thankful for having no damage...but I still wanted some more exciting weather though. Baltimore has been remarkably shielded for the most part. Probably 3.5" of rain around here.

Oh wow...sounds like I fell asleep 10 mins too early...slept right through it!!

Overall...isn't it kinda hard to get tornados in cities anyway? (buildings?)

Ohhhh no--they ain't gonna get away with that! This has been warned repeatedly the last couple of days!!

Practice for this winter...lol It really is amazing how we kinda have a shield in big events...

Wait they dismissed on time? Boooooo...smh

Question: Is it a reason why tornados happen more south of Baltimore than other areas of the state? Or am I just imagining it?

Yeeeah that was a tornado alright! (I'm sure I'm stating the obvious, lol)

Heavy downpour here in the city now

Funny how we got TOR warning boxes north and south of the city....severe weather is strange. Think the city gets any of this?

So much for "Im not trying to be harsh. I’m trying to help." You're clearly taking every effort to hit me over the head mercilessly.

Would be just like us to miss the rain totals north and severe northeast...lol Still just cloudy here

And folks tell me there's no magic formula for prediction...lol Perhaps not for the other ENSO states, but for Nina? I mean 95-96 is the only outlier! I mean I guess there's enough chaos for something randomore to happen, but...ninas seem to be the most predictable around here...

Oh dang Iooks like I went to bed an hour too early, lol

Question: why did the precip max setup inland instead of more in the I-95 corridor? Does it have something to do with elevation? Or is it just the storm track?

Yep that's the crux of it...I think many of us here have a truly divided mind over this (like the proverbial good angel/bad angel on the shoulder, lol)

And that's terrible...see that's what you hate to hear. Not as tragic, but still kinda bad...last month lighting struck the steeple of the church where I just became Music Director...fire coulda burned down the whole church had it not been for someone, Praise God, being there at the right time (and it being next to a fire station). So in that instance, it's like...yeah ya love the weather but when bad things happen? Ya hate that! It's a strange psychology...

The psychology doesn't make sense, but it is possible to feel both. It's like...you want no one to get hurt. But yet...you want that extreme weather too. Like when we got Snowmageddon...someone died walking in the street due to unplowed sidewalks. Did ya want that to happen? Of course not! It's awful. But were we happy with the legendary snow? Absolutely. Same with hurricanes...awesome to see powerful ones, yet awful to see the results. So the humanity feels for the victims of such and wishes no harm. But yet...something in the brain also wants the extremes for excitement too. So when that part of the brain/psyche doesn't get the extreme weather, there's disappointment. And yet you're happy nobody gets hurt. If I had a magic button I'd make it so you could have extreme yet no damage, lol

Ya know, I had planned to disengage from here this fall/winter so I wouldn't have to see the typical nina screw jobs coming...but this beat me to it! Smh Ya know, no matter how well you know this region and it's tendencies, it still kinda hurts anyway...but so it goes. But still it's better not to see it beforehand!

I just don't understand how this happens in the summer time with tropical...smh How do we STILL miss north and west...and this has nothing to do with elevation? Those folks up there get everything, summer AND winter. (although I'm gonna guess this is gonna be a flooding threat). It's like somebody put a bubble around us, smh (I mean sure you could see it as protective...that we don't get the bad things that come with flooding, but...still want some fun weather at the same time). La Nina screwing us early this year, apparently...north, west, east, smh

Same folks that get all the snow...now get all the tropical...of course

From a weenie perspective, yes...OF COURSE you'd love to see 6-8"! Tbh part of me doesn't like seeing that huge swath north of us...kinda feels too much like winter seeing that, lol
