Also heading to FL tomorrow to start a 2 week vacation, I just so happened to book a pre trip day of PTO for today. So happy lol

Low popped off NC coast

As of now, most guidance sees this as a snow beginning Friday AM and ending Friday PM.

Probably most of it lol - most models at 0z last night were painting 3-4 still

Very healthy dendrites under the good banding in HoCo

Are we forseeing daytime road stickage with this one or are we too marginal at the surface?

Feels like winds here in Columbia are just as strong as the other night.

Isn't it a blend of models? Isn't the blend of models getting a bit worse? Wouldn't that be the expected result of the blended output?

nervously awaits the "FOLKS"

P15 would be a jolly good time

TVS indicator on the stuff east of Fredericksburg

Sky just lit up with transformers blowing in the distance in downtown Columbia. Wild.

Fire and EMS dispatched to a home in Columbia for a downed tree into house - so it begins

I always sit back and giggle at people who don't understand the logic behinds these decisions. Its pretty clear cut to me. Glad these people aren't risk managers for a living

So is the general idea a swath of 1-3" of rain with some lollis under banding and along the ridges?

Yep, 2.3 magnitude quake NW of DC at 12:50am. https://x.com/LastQuake/status/1742064321184530496?s=20

Earthquake I think?

My entire local neighbors group freaking out

I now see the period I missed the first time. Lame. Lol

this is late and off topic now, but important to know for this upcoming season - PSU joined team hoco?

2 what looked to be F-22s just screamed over Jessup. Interesting…

Another round of highly electrical storms passing through. Impressive that temps are now into the upper 60s yet there is still so much charge in the air.

Amazing light show in downtown Columbia
