2026 Mid-Atlantic Severe Storm General Discussion
wxmeddler replied to Kmlwx's topic in Mid Atlantic
I'm fairly well convinced that the recent SPC changes have fundamentally altered the way higher percentages are given out. So much so that most of the SPC climatology is going to have to be tossed / step-changed. Arguably for the better though! SPC Forecasters have repeatedly said that the % were under-done due to the way the rubric was constructed. That's why things like NadoCast and PPF's were always markedly higher. New 30%D3 is the old 15%. And that's good! I think it better conveys the actual risk. It's just going to get some getting used to.- 244 replies

Not everyday you get a CONUS wide mid-latitude trough break in the center of the country. Exceptional synoptics call for exceptional caution.- 244 replies

Was outside in a wide open field helping a student setup her research project... felt like I was back in North Dakota today! Fun times!

If you're on the eastern shore the bay being 40 deg is killing you... was great yesterday when it was cooling you off by 20 deg!

Nice big flakes. Even sticking to the grasses in the lowlands of College Park.

Torch. Also, get bay breeze'd Harford Co. Edit: I just saw that Annapolis Naval Academy is reading 50 degrees

Post cold front snow on sharp, fast-moving troughs don't usually work out as far as accumulation. Ends up being too dry aloft and warm at the surface. You can get brief snow showers though.

What is a warm front?
