  1. Latest SPC mesoanalysis has between 500 - 100 SBCAPE tongue ahead of the main line up from NOVA into Gettysburg. I know @Ian has posted in the past about how sneaky these ribbons of SBCAPE can in environments like this.
  2. Nice SigTor parameters building in across NOVA and even a bit into Frederick County.
  3. I'm...somewhat more intrigued about our potential today. Over/under for LWX CWA: TORs issued: 5, 2 confirmed when it's over SVRs issued: 24 FFW issued: 6
  4. Decent clearing behind this first line. Would definitely help with any progged afternoon activity.
  5. Taking a look at visible satellite, it's pretty clear the CHO storm is the main player with this first line. You can see it bubbling up compared to the low stratus clouds elsewhere.
  6. SPC issues Mesoscale Discussion #934: https://www.spc.noaa.gov/products/md/2022/md0934.html
  7. Definitely sounds like a tornado occurred in Bedford, VA.
  8. I have a feeling that Lynchburg cell is going to produce another TOR today. It seems to be coupled right with the warm front.
  9. I'd be surprised if we get that. We'd need more sun to get the updrafts rooted to the surface. 10% TOR on SWODY1 = ENH.
  10. Secondary action appears to be over central Kentucky. If we get clearing it's behind this lead stuff then we get the next line with the cold front.
  11. Yup. Today is going to be a weird day. That TOR cell SW of Lynchburg has the Frederick Tornado Zone™ written all over it. Took a quick look at the SPOC archives and I agree.
  12. After sunrise but before noon. Sometimes when we get these remnant showers/weak storms entering early on a day progged for severe weather they have just enough juice left to spark a rogue weak tornado or some other kind of pre-game action.
  13. Keep an eye on those cells in western NC. They've been having some tendency to spin. We might get a few early AM tors.
  14. Yea tomorrow has sporadic, but significant flash flooding all over it.
  15. Tomorrow seems so dicey. Leaning towards a meh, but hopefully we can get a W.
  16. Two decent events in April 2011: April 16, 2011: https://www.spc.noaa.gov/exper/archive/event.php?date=20110416 April 27, 2011: https://www.spc.noaa.gov/exper/archive/event.php?date=20110427
  17. Best thing to do is walk away from this for 24 hours and remain emotionally disinvested. Check back with the 06z update on Friday and wait for the first few visible satellite images before committing.
  18. Cat 3 into Point Lookout, then hook left into IAD. Stall it there for 18 hours then loop it back due east slowly or this season's a bust.
  19. NWS has been doing that for some time. It's incumbent on the spotter to let them know of your new address.
  20. For the past few years it seems the axis is heavy precip from summertime mid latitude cyclones has been to trend further north and east in the 12-24 hours leading up to the event.
  21. We do well with CAPE that's elevated in these parts. Given the increased amount of urban infrastructure, the nocturnal stratiform rain is better for the waterways. Less thermal shock, less chance of flash flooding.
  22. Sitting at Ott House in Emmittsburg and it definitely has //that feel// up here.
  23. Headed to Cumberland for the weekend. Surprised at the red box. Hopefully I catch something in the mountains.
  24. Woke up to clouds and rain. Lololol
