I barely made Advisory totals here - .21" as the sun starts to return. Elliott isn't enthused for round #2 either. Worse yet, it's dry under the dogwood.

Probably close to game time, unfortunately.

I'm at home now and have .12" in the gauge. The worst is already past. It's drizzling. There's still an area of stratiform rain to move through - just saying that the initial sharp line produced very little here.

Line really seems to be moving much more quickly now...might lessen flooding issues here in the eastern areas.

My god, don't even question your decision. I'd be there too. Be safe!

Frog strangler? (an old Elliott Abrams term for flooding rains)

This is important information for my Coleus - I have quite a few under my dogwood.

I was thinking it was on your doorstep.

@Bubbler86 - that line reach you yet?

MU: The strong-to-severe t-storms across west-central VA will move through northern MD & the Lower Susquehanna Valley btw. 11 a.m. & 5 p.m. Main threats will be flooding downpours & locally damaging winds, w/up to 2” of rain possible in just 30-60 mins. in the hardest-hit locations.

It's that time...

Given SPC's thoughts on where severe is most likely today, I wouldn't see why not. But I am far, far removed from being an expert on severe. And I'll never actively root for it. It can stay far away as far as I'm concerned.

Just saw that TOR Watch is up south of the border.

I know one thing - one step outside this morning will confirm how ripe we are for drenching rains today. As my pap used to say..."the air is full"

Final 4 showing including knocking off the #1 seed...very good season.

Can't take a half off on the road against a team as good as the Warriors and expect to win. Obviously, you know that, but it might have been different if the intensity level was up from the opening tip.

Yeah, they've been disappointing so far.

He needs to stop being so Philly centric and start producing some Luka posts tonight.

Could very well be. @Voyagerkeep the faith!

I think Elliott is likely right about another thing - we often tend to warm up quicker than models suggest. I would not be surprised at all if many thermometers approach or reach 90 on Monday.

1/2 Great news for #MemorialDayWeekend! There's now good agreement between computer models that the upper-level low responsible for tomorrow's heavy thunderstorms will get "absorbed" by the northern branch of the Jet Stream on Saturday. 2/2 This means that even Saturday will turn out fairly nice with partly sunny skies and only an isolated shower or two around. Mostly sunny and warmer conditions return Sunday with highs in the low 80s, and we crank up the heat on #MemorialDay with highs near 90! MU Update:

That's the thing - my yard is susceptible to both extremes. If I get constant rain combined with a largely open yard, it grows like crazy. Remove water from the equation and it's dying in no time.

Great point. Sun and heat will dry it out real quick. I don't mow until it's at least 4-5" high. At least. Unless snow is coming.

I mean...I don't need an 1"+ of water at this point. I'll happily take a quarter to half inch refresh and let him get the goods.

If that depiction played out, I'd be in line for a lot of rain tomorrow at work and at home while @Mount Joy Snowmansits right between those 2 bands in Lanco. LOL
