  1. Yes that was an enjoyable sunset.
  2. Give me a pattern changing 1" - 3" event the week before Christmas. Then a nice 6" - 10" cold powder event on Christmas Day afternoon that sticks around for a week.
  3. Afternoon run of the Euro would make me sweat a bit if I'm a coastal resident.
  4. Sneaky severe day today: Surface CAPE 3,000 + across most of the area LI -6 or better east of US 15 High PWATs w/ some mid level drying to aid propagation of isolated wet microbursts. Surface lapse rates are decent Might see a few decent cells fire along some boundary.
  5. Last winter would have been a real nice one if the early January and late February events didn't skunk at the last minute.
  6. Would vastly prefer numerous light to moderate events with good cold that maintain some semblance of a snow pack, versus one big event that melts off in 2 days.
  7. Yup. Look at the rainfall gradients from yesterday. Quite impressive.
  8. I finally get a week off to go to the beach and the forecast jut tanks. Lovely.
  9. M3" storm total RSTM2 COOP site
  10. I mean, how often do you see almost 60,000 foot clouds tops on storms in this part?
  11. Late breaking news, but we managed to get Sykesville mesonet site in Carroll County online just before the storms arrived: https://mesonet.umd.edu/station?stid=MDMSNT-29 Big credit to @wxmeddler and it was great to see @wxmvpete again!
  12. Borderline violent thunderstorm dropping south from Martinsburg, WV. Could go bonkers once it hits this dual outflow boundaries. This should have been an ENH risk for wind today IMO.
  13. Yes, and the results are impressive: https://www.spc.noaa.gov/exper/soundings/25073118_OBS/
  14. Sterling putting up a special 18z balloon.
  15. It feels like a warm wash cloth outside.
  16. Entirely possible the rest of the summer is at or below normal. We can save our heat waves for Christmas!
