  1. Yea kind of wonder why so many people are worried about the tornado risk up towards DC.
  2. Looks like the cells firing in western MD and the WV panhandle are that lead cluster some of the CAMs were honing in on yesterday and this morning.
  3. Starting to wonder if they're going to go 30% tor or something.
  4. Discrete cell ahead of the main line in Charleston, WV. Already has "the look".
  5. Yea probably to coincide with the hatching on the meso
  6. Per the SPC mesoanalysis, we're losing convective inhibition pretty quickly. I'll be interested to see if we can hold off on any crapvection.
  7. Thursday could another active day, but let's focus on today first.
  8. Per the 12z sounding from IAD, today's convective temp is 90 degrees. We have a ways to go for heating if we want to maximize potential.
  9. Next 1 to 3 hours will be key. I don't want to see us get stuck with pre-frontal convection that kills instability off or persistent low clouds.
  10. 12z NAMNest slams Baltimore. Mature bowing structure goes right through their metro right at peak heating.
  11. https://weather.cod.edu/satrad/?parms=local-Virginia-02-24-0-100-1&checked=counties-map&colorbar=undefined
  12. Yes. Here's the event from the SPC archive: https://www.spc.noaa.gov/exper/archive/event.php?date=20120629
  13. Two issues for that day: 1.) I don't think the EML was properly diagnosed until the 18z RAOB from ILN and the 00z soundings from LWX and PBZ came out. 2.) CAMS were still a work in progress and were all over the board. The CAMS that had the EML right blew the derecho through DC.
  14. Yup. SPC high risk days seem to be focused on tornadoes, and that's fine. I still think the 2012 Derecho should've been a hatched 60%.
  15. There has never been a High Risk for our area and I don't see how one would be needed today.
  16. 00z HREF from SPC was big to focus on a lack of mid and upper level cloud deck. That's often a hinderance for our bigger sever weather days. If we can just clear this low level junk out we should be golden.
