  1. Funny to look at this radar still and know that it is going to miss 80% of the area inside the Beltway.
  2. Do you have a fan-aspirated shield or not? If yes, check to make sure that your fan didn't die. If not, just try to keep it as clean as possible and free of any obstructions. The temperatures are meant to be taken in a sunny area, but if the radiation shield isn't doing its job you could move it.
  3. Feels like we are at "peak yard" this weekend. Serious green before it all goes downhill in the summer. Pano of the backyard
  4. 25k w/o power in northern VA. Majority in Fairfax Co.
  5. Good storm. Not severe here, but good T&L, enough wind to make a racket in the treetops, and beneficial rain.
  6. Warning for most of the DC Beltway area. Text is 60 mph gusts. TDCA has 50mph winds not far off the surface
  7. A nice cool stretch, and then the heat returns and we immediately obliterate a record high (95 at IAD vs the record of 89).
  8. Yep, nice squall there. The camera shaking is making me dizzy.
  9. The big problem we have tomorrow is that it is dry. HRRR is putting the DPs in the 50s by later in the day. Kills the instability and the line dropping down.
  10. That cell S of Mankato is a beast. Tornado warning now.
  11. Beauty today. Tomorrow and Monday look amazing, with -10 departures and sun within weeks of the solstice.
  12. Forecast Tools > HREF > Storm Attributes has an assortment of these.
  13. I wonder if the 06z GFS was the first run of the year to spit out a 100 at DCA.
  14. They missed last week because the upper low cut off too far SW. The models have no been enthused with this week’s chances. The human forecasters have been more keen on the rain chances because of the PW values. If it doesn’t rain much it’ll be a win for the models.
  15. Providing some resilience to the Arctic sea ice?
  16. The height of the cold shot (anomaly-wise) is Monday afternoon. Not close to the low max records, though.
  17. If the NHL and NBA are going to do this summer conclusion to the season, are they going to delay the start of next season? They can't go right from the playoffs to a short break to the full next season. The sport calendar is going to be packed in Aug/Sept if this all works out.
  18. It is an impressive cool shot for June 1st, but this map starts to get more orange and red after that.
  19. Me a couple of days ago: this weather is so boring, bring on Spring Me this morning: 73, sunny and humid is awful. I need to move north. Rainfall oddity: CoCoRahs reports for the last two days were identical. 0.32" each day.
  20. More twigs and stuff down than normal because we don’t see a lot of these moderate sustained winds from the East. Nice gradient between the high and the departing storm.
  21. GFS less than 1” precip though day 10.
  22. We have dead oaks scattered throughout our neighborhood. Took one down in my yard last fall. Not widespread, but it is always notable when one of the big ones dies quickly.
