Confirmed large and dangerous tornado per radar

They already did

Now this is pretty cool

12z NAM and NAM NEST didn't look too bad for tonight

So anything interesting for tonight or nah?

This was 12 years ago? Dang... time flies

There is a MRGL risk on Friday from SPC

Emily done... Gert will be done by this evening

Well we have a 36 hour TD... so yay?

WTPZ44 KNHC 182046 TCDEP4 Hurricane Hilary Discussion Number 10 NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL EP092023 300 PM MDT Fri Aug 18 2023 Hilary remains a large and powerful major hurricane. The Air Force Hurricane Hunters sampled the northern portion of Hilary and found a higher minimum pressure than expected of 948 mb, 700 mb flight-level winds of 113 kt, and peak SFMR surface winds of 93 kt. However, the aircraft did not sample the southern half of the circulation, which currently has some of the deepest convection. Blending the available aircraft data and latest satellite intensity estimates yields an initial intensity of 115 kt. Hilary continues to slowly bend to the right, and the initial motion is northwestward or 315/10 kt. A general north-northwest to north motion with a steady increase in forward speed is expected tonight and through the weekend as the system is steered by pronounced steering flow between a strong subtropical ridge over the south-central U.S. and a mid- to upper-level low off the central California coast. The models have trended faster this cycle, and the NHC forecast has followed suit. Based on the latest forecast, the core of Hilary is expected to be very near the central portion of Baja California Saturday night and move inland over southern California by Sunday night. It should be noted that strong winds and heavy rains will occur well ahead of the center. Fluctuations in the hurricane's strength are expected through tonight, but Hilary is expected to begin weakening on Saturday as it moves over progressively cooler SSTs and into an environment of increasing shear and drier air. The NHC intensity forecast is lower than the previous one, partially due to the lower initial intensity, and a little higher than the HCCA and IVCN models. KEY MESSAGES: 1. Heavy rainfall associated with Hilary will begin well in advance of the center, from the Baja California Peninsula into the Southwestern United States. Preparations for the impacts of flooding from rainfall should be completed as soon as possible, as heavy rain will increase ahead of the center on Saturday. In the Southwestern United States, flash, urban, and arroyo flooding is expected, with the potential for dangerous and locally catastrophic impacts. 2. Hurricane conditions are expected within portions of the hurricane warning area along the west-central coast of the Baja California Peninsula Saturday night and are possible in the Hurricane Watch area. 3. Tropical storm conditions are possible by late Sunday in portions of southern California where a Tropical Storm Watch is in effect. 4. Large swells generated by Hilary will affect portions of the coast of southwestern Mexico, the Baja California peninsula, and south California over the next few days. These swells are likely to cause life-threatening surf and rip current conditions.

Maybe a few rumbles of thunder tonight?

Can't say I've ever seen a NHC 5 day map into W Nevada

Don't see the word frost very often in an AFD in August - from this morning AFD from LWX: By Friday the front will have pushed through, which will usher in cooler, but most noticeably, drier air into the region. Highs on Friday will reach the mid 80s, but dew points will be well down into the low to mid 50s. With high pressure building overhead Friday night and such a dry air mass in place, wouldn`t be shocked to see some of our high elevation valleys down into the low to mid 40s, with even the Shenandoah Valley perhaps dipping into the low 50s. No frost concerns of course at this point, but could be a brisk night for sure.

1630z SPC OTLK still has the 5 percent tor probs with no change

1300z SPC OTLK seems to be tossing the HRRR and RAP... and @Kmlwx describes tonight pretty well too Mid-Atlantic to TN/KY... Several episodes of strong-severe thunderstorms are possible across this corridor, with enough spatial overlap between them to warrant maintaining a continuous area of severe probabilities similar to those outlined in the previous outlook. A broad area of ongoing precip with embedded thunderstorms -- initially over portions of KY/TN -- largely should remain non-severe while shifting eastward into the central Appalachians today. However, increasing deep-layer flow and favorable low-level moisture will precede the associated UVV plume, along with muted diurnal heating of a moist airmass with weak CINH from parts of WV across the nearby Blue Ridge and Piedmont of VA, eastward toward Chesapeake Bay and over the Delmarva Peninsula. This may support strong-severe gusts and hail with thunderstorms forming during the afternoon over higher terrain and shifting eastward to northeastward toward the coast. Of note: progs with RAP basis -- including HRRR -- appear to be mixing and drying the boundary layer excessively over the Piedmont and coastal plain, leading to potential underproduction and/or muting of convection. After several hours of warm advection and increasing surface heating behind the morning activity, the best organized overall severe threat should develop this afternoon from parts of middle/eastern TN to southern OH/WV, and shift eastward over the adjoining Appalachians. MLCAPE should range from around 2000-3000 J/kg across middle/eastern TN -- where strongest heating/recovery is probable but deep flow/shear somewhat weaker -- to around 500-1000 J/kg near the Ohio River and northern WV. Effective-shear magnitudes around 40-50 kt should be common over eastern KY and WV, with modest 0-1-km SRH but around 150-250 J/kg effective SRH. This suggests an eastward-moving corridor of convection containing blend of supercells, multicell clusters and quasi-linear segments with sporadic bow/LEWP features will be possible, with accompanying threat for damaging to severe gusts, isolated hail, and at least marginal/conditional tornado potential. The northern part of this convective plume may persist overnight into an airmass east of the mountains -- across parts of the Piedmont and coastal plain of the Mid-Atlantic -- supportively recovered via theta-e advection from any earlier activity not far to the south and east. The parameter space should be favorable for severe well after dark, with 40-50 kt effective-shear magnitudes, locally enlarged hodographs with 200-300 J/kg effective SRH, and around 1000-2000 J/kg MLCAPE. Convective coverage is uncertain, but all hazards will be possible.

Looks like upper 90s to 100 degrees returns next week per morning AFD from LWX For the end of the week into next weekend, the pattern turns hotter and dry. A very strong 600 dm upper-level ridge takes shape over the Midwest and Great Lakes regions during this time. It actually appears as though the air mass will be much drier with this bout of heat with the Bermuda High not in place this go around as a cold front pushes through on Friday. Friday and Saturday will be closer to climo, with upper 80s to low 90s expected. However, by Sunday into early next week, expect temperatures to climb into the upper 90s.

Mesoscale Discussion 1978 NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 0912 PM CDT Sat Aug 12 2023 Areas affected...northern WV...western MD and southern PA Concerning...Severe Thunderstorm Watch 639... Valid 130212Z - 130345Z The severe weather threat for Severe Thunderstorm Watch 639 continues. SUMMARY...Strong to severe storms should continue for a few more hours with a risk for damaging gusts and isolated hail. DISCUSSION...Across WW639, several clusters of strong to severe storms are expected to persist for a few more hours tonight. The environment remains broadly favorable for severe weather as storms track to the southeast across far southern PA, northern WV and western MD. Storms have taken on a general linear mode, suggesting damaging gusts are the primary risk for the remainder of tonight. However, isolated hail is also possible, but more uncertain given the trend away from supercell structures over the last couple of hours. Given recent HRRR and radar trends, the highest confidence in severe potential is expected over northern WV and the MD Panhandle for the next couple of hours. ..Lyons.. 08/13/2023 ...Please see www.spc.noaa.gov for graphic product...
