  1. 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?
  2. M0.82" yesterday. Absolutely poured for an hour. 2" PWATs baby.
  3. 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.
  4. 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?
  5. Per the latest SPC mesonanalysis, there appears to be a bit of a lee trough running from CHO up to Harrisburg.
  6. Saw that. Looks like some summer showers and storms. Would be very beneficial.
  7. 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.
  8. SPC introduces Slight Risk for Thur and Fri. Personally I'd favor Friday for more widespread convection.
  9. 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.
  10. I would favor Friday for more organized severe weather. Thursday gives the all hat no cattle impression.
  11. 12z NAM really bakes the Carolinas and even south of RIC on Friday. Several locations make a run at 100°.
  12. Co-sign. Would favor the higher elevations along and west of I-81 where updrafts can get a boost from the terrain, or neat the bay where a bay breeze front can boost some forcing.
  13. Ji's already looking at 2027-2028.
  14. Southern Maryland and lower Delmarva have been quite moisture starved for some time. I was coming back from a conference in Ocean City the other week and the soybeans were looking quite ragged. Even the corn was struggling.
