  1. I strongly feel this way about Severe Thunderstorm Warnings, which I am not convinced anyone takes seriously at this point. Tornado Warnings… imo technology has advanced to where we can be fairly confident based on radar that a tornado is occurring or imminently possible. As long as folks still take those warnings seriously, and I think they do, I don’t have issues with their pace. I do think it’s somewhat fair to say that tornado warnings the way you’d prefer them have been somewhat replaced by PDS warnings, at least in populated areas, which I’m not sure is good comms strategy. I don’t think most normal folks recognize the difference between a warning, PDS warnings, and emergency.
  2. Rare time I get sorta pummeled and you don’t. I’m getting the 60dbz stuff over DC. edit: little bit of hail
  3. What’s new. One of the most boring summer storm seasons in the Beltway I can recall. Bring on the heartbreaking winter misses.
  4. It’s worse than what I said. I meant two blocks from DCA. Not even the part of Crystal City with “elevation.” Thought about Falls Church but decided the commute would be too far, so Reston is way too much!
  5. Think I'm moving to a new apartment in the fall. Out of the D.C. urban zone... into the Arlington urban zone literally 2 blocks from Crystal City. Might be a downgrade
  6. I mean, you could Google “CAPE severe” and get there… but it’s Convective Available Potential Energy. :wink:
  7. Germantown-area TOR 2 years ago, maybe? Not sure I’ve got the year right
  8. Helluva Beltway screw job so far. Heard a little thunder? I find it hard to believe the WV stuff totally evaporates but not feeling great
  9. I think this would be a good call but I’m doubting it happens. Unfortunately (or fortunately) I need to work my real job Saturday morning so I’ll be spared the smoke.
