Ellicott City under a flash flood warning.

I'm up on Skyline Drive and all we saw was a faint bit of purple in photos. We are back at our hotel now warming up and may go back out if it ramps up again.

98% clouds here. Going back to sleep.

Sure. If it fails, I'll owe you a refund on all the money you paid me.

Here in Colesville right now, the rain is ending, the sun is shining and there's blue sky in sight to the west.

I saw the they are predicting midday tomorrow UTC, which is 7am tomorrow morning. So 3 am - 5 am might be a good time to look.

Is there a good site to see modeled future cloud cover so we can head to the areas likely to clear later tonight.

More photos from Howard County 4:15-5:00 am

This is from my driveway in northern Silver Spring, looking back towards my backyard at 3:40 am. I didn't notice the pillars in the photo, but it did look purplish, which I thought might just be my phone camera being weird, but it was enough to hop in the car and head for my favorite dark spot in Howard County.

From Howard County, Jennings Chapel Road just now!
