    Thankfully the tornado risk isn't playing out.
  2. Eskimo Joe
    Something's bound to pop on that.

    Gust to 31 mph, M1.17" rainfall Frederick City mesonet site at the Community College.
  4. Eskimo Joe
    Storms along the Frederick/Montgomery County line fading. Looks like an outflow boundary pushing south along I-270.
  5. Eskimo Joe
    Storm just blowing up near Thurmont. Zero to wheeee in like 3 frames.

    Frederick/Montgomery County going to be swapped from a Severe Thunderstorm Watch to a Tornado Watch
  7. Eskimo Joe
    Wow, 55,000 ft tops on the warned storm just south of Charles Town!
  8. Eskimo Joe
    Yup. We'll see that severe thunderstorm watch in the next 20 min I reckon.

    While everyone is focused on the severe weather risk, we've busted into Heat Advisory criteria south of I-70. Some places pushing 110s for heat index.

    Their meadow tea is amazing.

    It's inside, but I have bad luck of getting recalled for work when I finally get a date day with the wife.

    Today is my first day off in almost a month. I've got a Lord of the Rings concert in Baltimore tonight, and we're getting wings at the Dive beforehand. Naturally, we're staring at a busy weather day.

    Have fun, check out the road runners in the zoo!

    Just wanted to add for the Maryland folks. The Maryland Department of Environment has some real nerdy pollution meteorologists. Their forecasts are almost always spot on and they regularly coordinate with the various NWS offices. We're very fortunate to have these folks in our state!

    Plot Twist: the edges of the smoke plumes can act as differential heating boundaries for storms, and the increased particular can act as nucleation for lightning. We saw that in PA/WI/NJ the past few days. Satellite loop for visual:

    Code Purple Rain to wash the smoke away.

    Cool site to track metar visibility. https://cyclonicwx.com/models/metar/neus/vis/
  19. Eskimo Joe
    Smoke definitely waning a bit. I can see two blocks over now!
  20. Eskimo Joe
    Zero metering PM 2.5.
  21. Eskimo Joe
    Smoke may insulate our overnight lows. It's 12:15 am and the Baltimore City mesonet site is at 84°.
  22. Eskimo Joe
    Was up in Philly today. It was far worse than Baltimore, everything had a chlorine-esque odor. There was fine particulate in a lot of surfaces.

    Less snow means more drought means more needle fall means more fuel load.
  24. Eskimo Joe
    Wonder if we undercut our high temperatures with this smoke? Looks like some the the solar radiation readings in NE MD are dropping a tad due to the smoke/haze.
  25. Eskimo Joe
    Drop that shortwave from Hudson Bay due south into Tennessee, and that'll end the drought real quick.
