  1. What would have been needed for more robust, widespread severe given that profile?
  2. ^Liz Leitman issuing that outlook. She's an incredible forecaster.
  3. With a raging east based El Nino? Don't hold your breath
  4. Gust to 31 mph, M1.17" rainfall Frederick City mesonet site at the Community College.
  5. Storms along the Frederick/Montgomery County line fading. Looks like an outflow boundary pushing south along I-270.
  6. Storm just blowing up near Thurmont. Zero to wheeee in like 3 frames.
  7. Frederick/Montgomery County going to be swapped from a Severe Thunderstorm Watch to a Tornado Watch
  8. Wow, 55,000 ft tops on the warned storm just south of Charles Town!
  9. Yup. We'll see that severe thunderstorm watch in the next 20 min I reckon.
  10. 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.
  11. Their meadow tea is amazing.
  12. It's inside, but I have bad luck of getting recalled for work when I finally get a date day with the wife.
  13. 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.
  14. North side of a stationary front can mean
  15. Have fun, check out the road runners in the zoo!
  16. 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!
  17. 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:
  18. Cool site to track metar visibility. https://cyclonicwx.com/models/metar/neus/vis/
  19. Smoke definitely waning a bit. I can see two blocks over now!
  20. Smoke may insulate our overnight lows. It's 12:15 am and the Baltimore City mesonet site is at 84°.
  21. 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.
