    Two observations: 1.) If there was more DCAPE, the wind reports from Berkley Springs, WV to just north of Annapolis would've been more impressive. Entirely possible that some 70-80 mph gusts would've even been capture on the Maryland mesonet. The Thurmont, Lisbon, and Clarksville sites were hit smack center by that northern cell. 2.) The lightning yesterday was impressive in my neck of the woods. Several positive lightning strikes that were quite brilliant to witness.

    This probably will get classified as a derecho. Incredible stuff to witness today. One of the higher end wind events I've seen.
  3. Eskimo Joe
    The morning convection removed any chances for severe weather in these parts. As SPC and @Kmlwxsaid, the atmosphere is largely capped and void of any meaningful surface instability.
  4. Eskimo Joe
    Obvious derecho ongoing in northern Illinois. Multiple 80mph+ wind gusts.
  5. Eskimo Joe
    Historically, we do not have multiple severe weather days in these parts. The radar trends in the Ohio Valley are not encouraging for those east of the Potomac River later today.
  6. Eskimo Joe
    IMO, today was not a bust. Solid slight risk day.
  7. Eskimo Joe
    BWI just gusted to M56 mph
  8. Eskimo Joe
    Dover AFB radar seems to have a good handle on the wind potential here.
  9. Eskimo Joe
    The lightning strikes are impressive with this line too. Wonder if it's the boundary from the morning storms?
  10. Eskimo Joe
    M49mph Gaithersburg, M41mph Lisbon mesonet, M46 mph Clarksville mesonet
  11. Eskimo Joe
    M64mph wind gust Broadway in Rockingham County, VA
  12. Eskimo Joe
    Leesburg Airport gusted to 51 mph.
  13. Eskimo Joe
    TOR for Garrett County
  14. Eskimo Joe
    Definitely looks like a cold pool developing behind this line. Woo storms for everyone today?
  15. Eskimo Joe
    Decent velocities on that line approaching Garrett County. Might be an overperformer today west of I-95 into the mountains.
  16. Eskimo Joe
    SPC adds 30% wind risk from I-81 west for today.
  17. Eskimo Joe
    Great pool weather.
  18. Eskimo Joe
    The AWOSs for KAPG and KEDG used to be available for public viewing. Not sure what happened.
  19. Eskimo Joe
    Just finished mowing the lawn in time.
  20. Eskimo Joe
    As @wxmeddler noted the other day, the real tragedy is KMTN rain gauge failing.
  21. Eskimo Joe
    Harford County up to Lancaster County getting smoked.
  22. Eskimo Joe
    That cell firing up just south of Fallston looks legit from my house. Big tower shooting up quickly.
  23. Eskimo Joe
    Unless something changes, it looks pretty bleak south of the PA line.
  24. Eskimo Joe
    I'm an Eskimo that lives south of Mason-Dixon. I've accepted my fate.
  25. Eskimo Joe
    Speaking strictly from parameters on the SPC mesoanalysis page, I'd favor NE Maryland into the western suburbs of Philly today. Weaker lapse rates may be offset by the hillier terrain there as things coalesce.
