    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.

    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.

    I love wind, these are my favorite kind of days. Everyday should be 50-70 deg, partly cloudy and winds 10-20.
  4. wxmeddler
    There is levels of wind. 15-20 is annoying. 35-40 is "Woah" "40-50" is "Oh Crap". 55+ is "dammit" 70+ is "$%^, !@^*,@^&*#"

    These showers should do good work. Ride the wind baby.

    Whichever model has the precip hole over my house is correct.

    Wow that Bay Breeze boundary is sharp.

    I predict thunder and a smattering of downed bradford pears that will verify base level svr. t-storm warnings.

    Pyranometer cable was/went bad. We're thinking that when it rained last night water got into the cable somehow and was either shorting it or causing a ton of noise on the rail. Our tech went up and replaced the cable and everything came back as normal.

    You absolutely nerd sniped me. Here's how many hours a wind gust has been recorded at a Maryland Mesonet station over a certain value so far this month. Most of the state has had gusts>= 30 mph at least 5-10% of the time this month.

    Finally. A good hard rain.

    The 3km NAM seems to promote the idea of the convergence boundary storms producing strong cold pools which moves the convergence boundary eastward. Which, is definitely a possibility. Edit: Strong cold pools would limit the tornado threat save minor QLCS kinks on the front end.

    The 'line' that's sitting out in the Allegheny Front is actually a convergence boundary that is taking advantage of the upslope topography. There isn't a synoptic impetus to move it off until the actual cold front arrives, which is still back in Ohio.

    The wind profile / hodograph dictates that isolated supercells would be the dominant mode of producing tornadoes. There doesn't seem to be much appetite from CAM's to pop cells in the open warm sector despite temperatures nearing / at convective temperature. Best bet is perhaps if the main line downscales into more isolated segments, and end up with a QLCS type threat.

    All the dynamic parameters are screaming tornado potential. The thermo's are a bit lacking but if we get some sunshine.... All we need is storm mode. I mean... this is damn good looking (boxed average for MoCo/Howard/Frederick/Caroll
