mappy Posted August 2, 2011 Share Posted August 2, 2011 Whatever that was that dropped some rain in Towson/Cockeysville last evening didn't make it the four miles further east to hit my neighborhood. We did get a nice light show, but no rain. I didn't get a lot of rain, most of the rain cores missed me east or west. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

yoda Posted August 2, 2011 Share Posted August 2, 2011 I got rain and it was nice probably about 0.50" as a guess Tomorrow looks a tad interesting after reading the SPC and LWX discos Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ellinwood Posted August 2, 2011 Author Share Posted August 2, 2011 Tomorrow looks a tad interesting after reading the SPC and LWX discos Took a look... could be interesting if morning clouds/rain can hold off. Low-level winds are good via the latest NAM, mid-level shear is meh... decent upper-level support as well. Nice little 700mb jet streak over the region helping us out. Will have to watch the mid-level lapse rates for improvement as they are only looking decent at best. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kmlwx Posted August 2, 2011 Share Posted August 2, 2011 AFTER A RELATIVE LULL IN CVRG WED MID-MRNG...UPWARD TREND IN CVRGOF SHWRS AND TSTMS XPCD WED AFTN AS UPR TROF APRCHS. GREATEST UNCERTAINTY TMW IS ON DEGREE OF DESTABILIZATION. IF BREAKS IN CLDS CAN DVLP...INSTBY WOULD BE SUFFICIENT FOR STRONG UPDRAFTS...AND SHEAR IS SUFFICIENT FOR UPDRAFT ORGANIZATION AND PSBLTY OF SVR WX. DMGG WIND GUSTS ARE PSBL...WITH A DYNAMICAL ENVIRONMENT EAST OF INTERSTATE 95 FAVORABLE FOR A FEW TORNADOES. BUT IF CLD CVR IS THICKER...PSBLTY OF SVR WX WILL BE A BIT MORE LMTD.

Ellinwood Posted August 2, 2011 Author Share Posted August 2, 2011 Tornado mention from LWX Wind field is nice Will have to watch LCLs in addition to the cloud cover/instability if we want anything to touch down. Fairly certain I'll be chasing tomorrow unless it looks like complete crap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well now that that's your plan it will probably be complete crap Seriously though - I hope we can get some nice destabilization in here - it's always something.

Ian Posted August 2, 2011 Share Posted August 2, 2011 This is honestly one of the first times I have looked at something in depth since I've moved... it's been pretty boring lately.. tho i guess that's typical of summer. pop ups that flood one area and leave everyone else dry. i guess y-day performed/overperformed but even that was relatively minor on the svr level.

Is it clouding up for anyone else, and is it just that cloud cover. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ian Posted August 2, 2011 Share Posted August 2, 2011 Over/under for TOR-warned cells is 2 (looking at the number of individual cells... not the actual number of warnings). sounds about right tho it could easily be 0 if it's more an mcs type deal. but if there's one there will probably be 2, but doubtfully many more.
