WVclimo Posted July 25, 2011 Share Posted July 25, 2011 Power was back after the storms passed yesterday, so no harm done. Leaving my neighborhood, headed toward Spring Mills, there is a rise in elevation to a crest at the top of Tice Rd. (Pretty good panoramic view there.) Saw the most damage in that area. Trees uprooted. Pretty elaborate kids' play set in a yard there smashed and scattered. Another home, where an older woman is always seen landscaping and keeps a beautiful yard, had the shingles peeled back on part of her roof, and some heavy water damage by the looks of it. I escaped pretty well unscathed. SE winds don't do too much damage with my layout. Picked up 0.03" and a brief drop in temps from the earlier storm today. Spoke with the grandson of the folks who lost part of their roof. (We actually work together, but I had never made the connection.) They say it was a tornado that hit their house. By the looks of some of the tree damage around there, I'd say its believable. That's a mile from my back yard, less as the crow flies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep, save the one storm on 7/8, I have had less than 1 inch since mid-May in Frederick. It just doesn't rain here anymore. At least I'll get my golf in this afternoon!

OVERALL POTENTIAL FOR MORE WIDESPREAD AND ORGANIZED SEVERE STORMS CURRENTLY APPEARS TOO LIMITED TO JUSTIFY A WATCH FOR THESE AREAS. CELLS AND CLUSTERS OF TSTMS HAVE STRENGTHENED COINCIDENT WITH HEATING OF THE DAY AND MOIST ELY INFLOW AHEAD OF A WEAK SURFACE TROUGH AXIS FROM ERN PA SWD INTO NRN VA. OTHER THAN THE SURFACE TROUGH AND IMPROVING THERMODYNAMIC ENVIRONMENT DUE TO DIURNAL/DIABATIC EFFECTS THERE APPEARS TO BE LIMITED LARGER SCALE SUPPORT FOR STORMS IN THIS REGION WHICH IS REMOVED FROM STRONGER FORCING ALONG THE ADVANCING COLD FRONT TO THE NORTH. DEEP-LAYER FLOW IS ALSO LIMITED ATTM AS EVIDENCED BY RELATIVELY SLOW STORM MOTION. DESPITE THESE SHORTCOMINGS....ROBUST DEVELOPMENT HAS BEEN UNDERWAY FOR SEVERAL HOURS AND A LARGER COLD POOL APPEARS TO HAVE MATURED ACROSS SERN PA.
