I vaguely remember seeing that somewhere too
-
It has @EastCoast NPZ in the heavy rain totals... so we have to toss it
-
I understand that... what i meant is do I keep my spotter ID forever and not have to take another class or does NWS recycle them
-
Anybody know if you need a refresher? Like I still have my spotter ID and such... but last class I took was about 8 years ago I think?
-
We should have won the game. Very disappointed
-
Decent rainbow outside right now after a quick burst of moderate rain
-
I see the Commanders offense is garbage so far
-
For a few days before the 60s DP return
-
Looks like rain in DC metro by 8 to 9pm looking south on radar
-
I dunno... I remember concerns about it. I think it was ERC and something else that weakened it
-
Before it weakened... wasn't Isabel a big concern for that kind of track?
-
@EastCoast NPZ everything okay? The desert got hit again

Severe Thunderstorm Watch up until 9pm URGENT - IMMEDIATE BROADCAST REQUESTED Severe Thunderstorm Watch Number 653 NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 205 PM EDT Fri Sep 4 2026 The NWS Storm Prediction Center has issued a * Severe Thunderstorm Watch for portions of District Of Columbia Eastern Kentucky Western Maryland Southeast Ohio Virginia West Virginia Coastal Waters * Effective this Friday afternoon and evening from 205 PM until 900 PM EDT. * Primary threats include... Scattered damaging wind gusts to 70 mph likely Isolated large hail events to 1.5 inches in diameter possible A tornado or two possible SUMMARY...Relatively widespread clusters of storms will continue to become increasingly common this afternoon, with the potential for storms to organize over time as they progress generally southeastward. Wind damage will be the most common hazard.

https://www.spc.noaa.gov/products/md/md2232.html Mesoscale Discussion 2232 NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 1231 PM CDT Fri Sep 04 2026 Areas affected...southeast Ohio...much of West Virginia...western Maryland and northern and western Virginia Concerning...Severe potential...Watch likely Valid 041731Z - 041930Z Probability of Watch Issuance...80 percent SUMMARY...Scattered storms may produce areas of damaging gusts and marginally severe hail through the afternoon from southeast Ohio into Virginia. DISCUSSION...Cells have intensified from central into southeast OH, south of the synoptic wind shift and within the instability axis. Precipitable water is high, with moderate instability developing. Midlevel northwesterlies of 30-40 kt are also supporting cellular and mixed storm modes including small bows. Given the destabilizing air mass downstream of the existing storms, gradual upscale growth may occur as outflow production/storm coverage increases. ..Jewell/Guyer.. 09/04/2026 ...Please see www.spc.noaa.gov for graphic product...

Sounds like severe thunderstorm watch coming soon for areas west of i95 corridor per MCD

Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Baltimore MD/Washington DC 1052 AM EDT Fri Sep 4 2026 .WHAT HAS CHANGED... No wholesale changes to the forecast this morning. Monitoring convection upstream over Ohio (again) as that is on pace to affect the region with a damaging/severe wind threat later this afternoon into this evening.
-
Though morning AFD from LWX suggests otherwise DISCUSSION... KEY MESSAGE 1...Hot temperatures, high humidity, and severe thunderstorm chances again today into Saturday. Additional showers and thunderstorms, possibly severe, are anticipated again this afternoon/evening. Timing is a bit uncertain given the subtle waves aloft, but increasing low-level convergence paired with another upper impulse may very well result in another round or two of storms with a damaging wind risk. The latest guidance has nudged the threat a bit further north due to slower progression of the cold front, encompassing areas as far north as I- 70 or the Mason-Dixon line . While storms can develop over the region and congeal before moving southeast, areas in Ohio, Pennsylvania, and West Virginia will need to be monitored to see if anything grows upscale in those areas in linear segments and dives southeast. Highs today will range from the upper 80s to lower 90s with dew points in the lower to middle 70s resulting in heat indices in the upper 90s to lower 100s. This will be just shy of heat headline criteria (except in Charlottesville and surrounding Albemarle/Nelson Counties). The potential for early day clouds to offset heating precludes enough confidence to issue any further heat headlines at this time, though it will be unusually hot and humid for early September regardless.

So today's final severe weather threat should be more SW of DC metro?
-
And now the usual "vehicles stalled/stuck in high water" reports

Now seeing an LSR of a tree into a house in the 3000 block

Mesoscale Discussion 2227 NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 1056 PM CDT Thu Sep 03 2026 Areas affected...northern Virginia and central Maryland Concerning...Severe Thunderstorm Watch 652... Valid 040356Z - 040500Z The severe weather threat for Severe Thunderstorm Watch 652 continues. SUMMARY...Damaging wind threat is increasing for the greater Washington D.C. area. DISCUSSION...Rapid thunderstorm development occurred late this evening in the vicinity of Washington D.C. Here, warm-air advection thunderstorms combined with increasing convergence from an outflow boundary from an earlier storm. The result has been a rapid increase in hydrometeors aloft, which will support heavy water loaded downdrafts/downbursts capable of wind damage across the greater Washington D.C. area. At 0348Z Washington National airport measured a 64 mph wind gust. This threat will continue to move east over the next hour. ..Marsh.. 09/04/2026 ...Please see www.spc.noaa.gov for graphic product...
