Eskimo Joe replied to Kmlwx's topic in Mid Atlantic
A number of tornado warnings in that watch box to our west. Wonder if SPC upgrades that?- 1,716 replies

Looks like the storms NW of RIC may be choking off the inflow for anything local to DC or Baltimore.- 1,716 replies

That cell coming out of central WV is probably going to be the main show in these parts. Already visible on LWX radar and it's had a tornado warning on it a short time ago. Must be some little vort max swinging around the base of the trough?- 1,716 replies

Already a confirmed tornado in northeast PA. Several warnings up towards NY. Dynamics FTW.

That would be like the El Ninos of yore.

Then the 13z HRRR comes in and is back to total garbage for everyone.
-
Sure thing. 12z HRRR: Around 3/4pm - Puts a couple of decent pre-frontal discrete cells from MDT south to DC, looks like one cell gets beefy east of Baltimore along maybe a bay breeze boundary? Around 4 - 6pm - Develops a respectable line of storms along I-81 and runs it from MDT down to RIC around sunset. That would be a solid slight risk day in these parts. If folks hold their expectations to that, then no one would be dissappointed.
-
Looking upstream, if we can get these debris clouds over West Virginia to fade out, we should be okay for at least some thunder. The cluster of storms coming through Columbus, OH right now has an uptick in CG and seems to be drifting southeast. Wonder if that's our show for later?
-
If you liked the 11z HRRR, you'll love the 12z HRRR. Legit squall line.
-
Do we want to put the obs, etc. in this thread today, or the severe wx thread? I vote for here.
-
Clouds. Our most common failure mode. Hope we can clear out today.
-
Man you can script a precip minimum better than that.

Agreed. Unfortunately, my confidence in SPC has really been shaken since they've changed these outlooks.- 1,716 replies

Thank you for the clarification! I've seen more AFDs reference "WPC AI guidance" and was getting concerned it was becoming just plug and chug computer nonsense in the Mid and long range.
-
IIRC, any forecast beyond D3 now is straight AI/auto generated with minimal input from forecasters. If I am wrong, someone please correct me.
