BaltimoreWxGuy Posted March 10, 2011 Share Posted March 10, 2011 A shot at a few rumbles of thunder later this afternoon/evening from that stuff rebuilding in central North Carolina? Looks that way, I wouldnt be surprised, but itll deff fuel the heavier rain for later, say around the rush hour. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mappy Posted March 10, 2011 Share Posted March 10, 2011 I just spoke with H20 - he can confirm that it is indeed raining in Fairfax VA. ION, he said he felt raindrops. He told me to tell you ... thank you for the help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ellinwood Posted March 10, 2011 Share Posted March 10, 2011 dont be too specific about this, i'm just going by the NWS text forecast, and the radar appearance. Going by radar appearance would not be a good thing to do with this storm... especially since the stuff that's supposed to hit us later hasn't really even formed yet (the NC stuff... just starting to go, but isn't nearly as robust as it's going to be later).
