Kmlwx Posted July 11, 2011 Share Posted July 11, 2011 I was on vacation last week, and was very pleased to find 4.25 inches in my rain gauge when I returned. Sorry for the misleading data - I setup a sprinkler by it there was no rain while you were gone! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EasternUSWX Posted July 11, 2011 Share Posted July 11, 2011 Sorry for the misleading data - I setup a sprinkler by it there was no rain while you were gone! Good one. Going to be dang hot today and tomorrow. Hopefully that ridge over the plains never gets here are we are toast. GFS hints at a 5 day period of at least 95-105 temps next week.

Don't have a rain gauge but the collecting ponds in my neighborhood are full and we have 3. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bob Chill Posted July 11, 2011 Share Posted July 11, 2011 Tomorrow looks to be the worst heat and humidity day of the year so far. IAD or BWI hit 100? It's gonna be damn close. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TradeWinds Posted July 11, 2011 Share Posted July 11, 2011 I was on vacation last week also. Don't have a rain gauge but the collecting ponds in my neighborhood are full and we have 3. I'm in Ballenger Creek and my gauge measured 3.2" for Friday. The rainfall rates with our afternoon storm were amazing. Parts of Market street were flooded for a while because the rain overwhelmed the drainage systems. There were pics on the DC news channels and the News Post.

Looking like your wish is going to come true. That complex in OH looks to definitely cross our path. I don't think the apps are going to destroy it either. 7-10PM looks like our window.

Bob Chill Posted July 11, 2011 Share Posted July 11, 2011 I could only hope. But, those mountains are evil. Too true most of the time. This system is pretty damn big and decently organized. Even if the front line takes a hit crossing the mountains we should at least get some rain and some rumbles. If the front edge clears the blueridge before sunset then we could get some nice storms mixed in. Don't think it will get here that quick though.

I never even had one really. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ian Posted July 11, 2011 Share Posted July 11, 2011 these things tend to head se/sse.. the way the bow looks i think it would miss to the south if if survives. tho the main energy is north. i doubt we get much of note. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It sure is moving quickly...and trending more SSE. It will be running into some nice juicy air too. I don't know whether to believe it or not but my DP is 80 atm. Other PWS's nearby have as high or almost as high. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
North Balti Zen Posted July 11, 2011 Share Posted July 11, 2011 I'll take the option where the line splits and it blows up north and south of the DC/BWI cooridor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Other PWS's nearby have as high or almost as high. you're in a good spot it seems... looks to me like much of the northern wv portion is becoming outflow dominant and weakening a little. it looks like due north of you and to the west is trying to strengthen.. tho a little gap immediately north in intensity. also those front runner popups.
