It's a damn shame the Big Boy steam engine isn't coming back west through Harpers Ferry. That would've been an EPIC shot coming out of the tunnel and going over the Potomac.

Eh, this is a slight risk day. It's not like we were staring down a D3 MOD risk with a CIG2 hatch 60% or something that fizzled.- 1,455 replies

I've been in a few NOAA/NHC/FEMA webinars recently where the speakers have made observations where the AI guidance appears to not overhype, but rather really juice up convection in the warm sector. It's entirely possible these AI models need more events in their knowledge base before they can beat the traditional NWP. Just my observation. Others are welcome to chime in.- 1,455 replies

This is just my observation, but the AI stuff (NCAR) seems to over do convection is marginal environments. It's almost like there aren't enough events in it's database.- 1,455 replies

I'm kind of in the same boat as you. Still, we've seen what marginal surface instability and good dynamics can do in these parts.- 1,455 replies

SPC maintains the 15% for D4 (Thursday) and mentions the usual fail potential alleys: clouds, timing, etc. That being said, any time you get a decent jet just to our north and a reasonably hot/humid airmass...interesting things can happen.- 1,455 replies

Atmosphere isn't overturned between I-81 and I-95 and there's a couple of boundaries floating around. Might be in store for at least some elevated convection?- 1,455 replies

Two areas of interest locally: 1.) Bay press pressed up somewhere between US 29 and I-95 west of the bay. 2.) Looks like a decent outflow boundary settling along I-66. Wonder if these serve as a focus for later in the evening?- 1,455 replies
