Those VWC number are money. Rock Creek is currently experiencing some flooding near the beltway. We've close down Beach Driver between Connecticut Ave & Stoneybrook Dr. Looks like 1.5" - 2.2" from Potomac to Layhill overnight.
This point will need to be hammered home with the public. We're already fielding questions at work, on a weekend, about why there's water restrictions with "all this rain we've had recently".
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.
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?
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?
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.
