Ugh... power flickered twice... but still on for now

Stuff down in Fauquier County seems to be moving NE towards DC metro... that could cause some trouble if it maintains strength and track

I need @Bob ChiII and his WD index I think it was

The AFD seemed a bit ominous for this evening The biggest threat today by far is the risk for flash flooding. Slow storm motions, high PWATs, high CAPE, a stalled frontal boundary, and parallel flow along that boundary are all favorable for a flash flood risk. Training and slow-moving storms are expected this afternoon. Most areas could see an inch or two of rain, but isolated higher amounts (potentially much higher) are possible where training occurs. Rainfall rates of 2-3"/hr will be commonplace this afternoon, but it will be a matter of who sees those rates for the extended periods that determines the maximum flash flood potential. The Flood Watch was expanded to include the rest of the NW tier of the forecast area. Definitely want to watch how this line over eastern WV orients itself as it pushes eastward. Should this lay out east to west over the metros, could be looking at a big issue this evening for those areas. Some positive thoughts though are that there seems to be just enough DCAPE at this time to ever so slowly push storms east and south as they form new updrafts along their own weak outflows. So hopefully this will be just enough to get storms through quick enough to not be a major issue.

trying not to @ someone who hasn't posted in a little while after that comment

get any rain?

Should be getting close to you now

Nice pic!

Lots of lightning with that line Seems like it's disappearing some too

97 BWI at 4pm

I only read the bolded

Probably in the morning update tomorrow looks like reading the afternoon AFD .SHORT TERM /WEDNESDAY THROUGH THURSDAY NIGHT/... A slow moving cold front will impact our region Wednesday through early Thursday morning. A continued unstable environment with CAPE between 2000 and 3000 j/kg will interact with forcing provided by the frontal passage to produce scattered showers and thunderstorms on Wednesday. PW's are forecast to maximize between 2 and 2.5 inches with storm motions being relatively low. Based on the slow nature of the frontal passage along with current model trends, it seems the main storm/flooding threat will occur later in the day on Wednesday and continue into the late evenings periods. The combination of forcing from the front along with PW's around 2.3 inches and slow storm motions will lead to an increased threat for flooding on Wednesday. Although the flooding risk will be the bigger threat for Wednesday, a combination of good forcing along the front and favorable CAPE will likely mean there will be risk for strong to severe storms as well. Global and hires guidance still has some disagreements on the overall coverage/location of storms,but they all agree that there will a risk for rain rates of 2 to 3 inches per hour with storm totals above 4 inches possible. The threat for showers and thunderstorms capable of producing heavy rain will continue into the early morning periods of Thursday.

I see RLX is throwing up FFWs... so I am guessing LWX may do so later today

Run at 100?

93/73 at DCA at noon with a west wind... so I'd expect a 97/98 if no storms come through before 4pm IMO
