Weird, I can't multi-quote for some reason

Re: storms today: I saw that the ARW and WRF-NMM had storms for us around 00z. I see the RUC does too. Just wanted to get someone elses opinion before I throw those models out and stick with my "we don't get storms" stance. :)

9z LWX ARW has the storms doing a poetic dance around MBY and Baltimore...skirting DC...and nailing just about everyone else.

11z HRRR does something similar - has a line near Hagerstown/Frederick around 5, the usual DC split takes place and then the line comes back together once it passes.

Maybe the slight can be extended :devilsmiley:

Great directional shear just ahead of the front, but there's virtually NO speed shear (highest wind speed up to the trop. is like, 30 kts. on the latest RUC sounding). LCLs are gonna be wayyyy up there as well.

+ side... mmmmm CAPE & FROPA lift.

yes....IAD's current summer norms are a joke

It's really amazing that change only really began in earnest in the mid-late 90s (and only with night time lows) but the results have been drastic since then. No sub-zero lows, with record summer minimums becoming rather normal. As the new Silver Line corridor truly takes off, it wouldn't surprise me to see minimums moving 2-3 degrees higher even by 2020.

I thought that at first, till Ian said it had been there for a few runs. Can a model suffer convective feedbck for more than a couple of runs in a row?

I wouldn't take it verbatim but it has advertised it a while now. Atmosphere supports it.
