    Some impressive wind signatures on those storms near Pittsburgh. Wouldn't surprise me to see a 70 mph reading or two.
  2. Eskimo Joe
    If they maintain mostly sunny and that good wind direction they could get an upper 90 reading here soon.
  3. Eskimo Joe
    Looks like the rain yesterday has boosted surface dews a bit. Helps to offset the fact that air temperatures aren't climbing really into the 90s.
  4. Eskimo Joe
    Finally feels like summer.
  5. Eskimo Joe
    LI's of -9, solid low level lapse rates, and healthy CAPE. If only we had 30-40 kts of shear, we'd be cooking.
  6. Eskimo Joe
    Classic summer morning smells.
  7. Eskimo Joe
    Probably why the 30% wind was added.

    SPC mesonalayis is pretty loaded at 10:30 am for us. Incredible surface CAPE, stouts LI's, and decent low level lapse rates. Only thing lacking is shear. If something fires up today it'll have a solid airmass to work with. Hmm...even some decent mid level lapse rates west of I-81. I wonder if we have a bit a remnant EML trying to crest the mountains?

    M0.82" yesterday. Absolutely poured for an hour. 2" PWATs baby.

    The June 5, 2024 tornado outbreak comes to mind. Arguably one of the greatest forecasting snafus east of the Mississippi River in the history of NWS.

    30% is the new "SEE TEXT" Edit: this post is sarcasm
  12. Eskimo Joe
    Remember when 30% got you an ENH? Pepperidge Farm remembers.

    Outflow boundary evident on radar near Frederick. Looks like the storms lost the terrain boost that was keeping their updrafts going. Should see some more stuff fire up ahead of the main line here shortly?
  14. Eskimo Joe
    Amazing to watch the soils just absorb the rainfall.
  15. Eskimo Joe
    They can and often do act as a forcing mechanism. More lift!
  16. Eskimo Joe
    Per the latest SPC mesonanalysis, there appears to be a bit of a lee trough running from CHO up to Harrisburg.
  17. Eskimo Joe
    Clarksville mesonet site had a dewpoint of 76. Impressive.
  18. Eskimo Joe
    Sligo Creek, I'm looking at you.
  19. Eskimo Joe
    Saw that. Looks like some summer showers and storms. Would be very beneficial.
  20. Eskimo Joe
    Nice little swirl over West Virginia. If we can get enough sunshine today, we might get some decent storms south of I-70. Might be a DC to EZF special.
  21. Eskimo Joe
    Got a graphic?

    SPC introduces Slight Risk for Thur and Fri. Personally I'd favor Friday for more widespread convection.
  23. Eskimo Joe
    It was intentional. PS...shameless content plug but @wxmeddler and I are always available for an article on the mesonet if you're looking for local.
  24. Eskimo Joe
    Hai @Ian
  25. Eskimo Joe
    I would favor Friday for more organized severe weather. Thursday gives the all hat no cattle impression.
