  1. Based on the MD just issued, I'm assuming a severe T-storm watch is coming soon. T-Storm warnings now for Culpeper / Fauquier
  2. This morning's 12z balloon had 2.07" PWAT which is right about climatological max for this time of year. We got the smashed spider hodograph though, so expecting some wet down-bursts later.
  3. We're not popping off as fast as we were yesterday. We had lightning strikes in the region by Noon.
  4. Baltimore is understandable. I'm not sure what's going on with Pax River. We don't have any stations down there yet to verify. Could be micro-climate or sensor related.
  5. I noticed the same, it's definitely helping keep actual temps down. However it also makes the ET is sky high so the dew's are not mixing out as fast they normally would. Keeping the Heat indices high.
  6. Some of the NJ Pine Barrens fire came back around this direction. There was a fairly strong inversion last night where ozone got trapped as well.
  7. The solar radiation component has been missing from the ET formula lately. Which is good, because the wind and dew point depression hasn't been doing us much good lately.
  8. Fri,Sat,Sun nights look about equally trash. Friday night maybe has slightly less mid-level cloudiness? My suggestion would be to look at infrared satellite as the sun goes down each night and try to time a break in it. Wish I had better news.
  9. Hate to say it but with the trough sitting out west and ridge pumping moisture into it, that's a classic combination of persistent high clouds in this area.
  10. I love wind, these are my favorite kind of days. Everyday should be 50-70 deg, partly cloudy and winds 10-20.
  11. There is levels of wind. 15-20 is annoying. 35-40 is "Woah" "40-50" is "Oh Crap". 55+ is "dammit" 70+ is "$%^, !@^*,@^&*#"
  12. These showers should do good work. Ride the wind baby.
  13. Whichever model has the precip hole over my house is correct.
  14. Wow that Bay Breeze boundary is sharp.
  15. I predict thunder and a smattering of downed bradford pears that will verify base level svr. t-storm warnings.
