  1. Keedysville mesonet site up to 1" already for today.
  2. I think that outflow boundary stalled our just west of I-95 in Maryland. It may be enough to organize what litter instability is left.
  3. With the outflow boundary out racing a lot of the convection, this has probably ended any scattered or widespread risk for wind damage. Looks more like generic thunderstorms for the rest of the evening.
  4. Yup. My 5pm Gaithersburg to Reisterstown drive should be long.
  5. Several LSRs out of Frederick County, MD. Looks like they were the "winners" today.
  6. If I recall correctly, the HRRR initializes off radar? Can @Ellinwood, @wxmeddler, @MillvilleWx, @wxmvpete or someone else confirm?
  7. Classic wet microburst signature on the Loudoun County cell.
  8. Outflow boundary hit the cells near Charles Town. Things really popping off quickly in the pan handle.
  9. Looks like the Greencastle storm died, threw an outflow boundary south into Maryland, and it's about to crest the Catoctin Mts. Wonder if that's what kicks off the activity in the lee of the mountains and northwest suburbs this afternoon?
  10. New Severe Thunderstorm Watch issued from Cecil/Kent counties northeast into Philadelphia.
  11. Latest SPC mesoanalysis has an axis of ~2,500 SBCAPE in southern PA. Wonder if the southern edge of that enhanced CAPE might act as a boundary for the northern and western crew later?
  12. Yup. That is the cell I was referring to. Would love to be up in Cascade, MD looking at this from their overlook. One of the prettiest places I've every been.
  13. Thus far, the best cell of the day appears to be running just north of Mason-Dixon into PA. Consistent CG, tops sustained about 35,000 feet, and now some damage reports coming out as LSRs via CTP.
  14. Latest HRRR is essentially a bust. Some hit or miss storms, but nothing that would amount to more than half an inch of rain, and certainly not severe.
  15. Per the 12z sounding at IAD, the Conv. Temp is 93°. Hoping to get us into the low 90s to maximize whatever we can today.
  16. If you really want to see something depressing, check out the consistently large data gap of 00z/12z RAOBs across the intermountain west, desert southwest, and upper plains. Watching the US upper air network get decimated willy nilly is just a sight to behold.
  17. 06z GFS is 2"-3" from I-70 north Friday into Saturday.
  18. 11z HRRR mixes our low level dewpoints out to the upper 50s by initiation time (~2:00 pm), while the NAMNAM Nest keeps the dews in the 60s.
  19. We have our annual fire department carnival from Wednesday to Saturday in New Windsor, Carroll County. Would absolutely LOVE to have the rain hold off until Saturday after 9pm. It's one of our biggest fundraisers.
  20. That's an understatement. Some places got almost half an inch of rain but the vegetation continues to suck it all up. Almost nothing is making it into ground water.
  21. Just give us thunder and like half an inch of rain. We could really benefit from it.
  22. This plus a climo decrease in tropical chances due to El Nino really are a wet blanket for this summer. Do we just go hot and dry all season?
  23. RSMT2 COOP Site, I somehow managed M2.02" for April.
