WVclimo Posted August 19, 2011 Share Posted August 19, 2011 Can't tell you how many times this year that this has happened: a storm blowing up right over me. Booming thunder, frequent lightning and some small hail here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

snowfan Posted August 19, 2011 Share Posted August 19, 2011 The area NW of Hagerstown is getting it good right now. Same goes for the area just SW of Front Royal. Now a small cell is trying to get going in western Howard Co. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
derecho Posted August 19, 2011 Share Posted August 19, 2011 Finally getting rain. Nice wind and a little hail sounding like a sleetstorm with the pinging. About penny sized. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adelphi_sky Posted August 19, 2011 Share Posted August 19, 2011 Whatever is causing those storms to fire over I-81, I need it to move about 50 miles west please. Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WVclimo Posted August 19, 2011 Share Posted August 19, 2011 no rain or storm to your south but the lightning show to the east/northeast is spectacular. the anvil head is illuminated, there are frequent brilliant c2 g strikes, and best of all there is pink lightning. Spectacular was the word that came to mind for me too. In the last 90 minutes, I don't think there's been more than 15 seconds without a CG strike somewhere nearby. One was so close, I heard a "sizzle" like a light bulb shorting out, right before the explosion of thunder. Somehow got the kids to sleep, in our bed, but it is still rocking.

Ian Posted August 19, 2011 Share Posted August 19, 2011 Overperformer. I think maybe we've turned the corner east of the Apps. Now we just need a tropical inundation or two. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WVclimo Posted August 19, 2011 Share Posted August 19, 2011 Heavy rain has moved back in. Winds gusting to near 50 mph. Can't say I can recall a storm forming over me, moving away, then doubling back and hitting again. EDIT: 0.75" of rain in 10 minutes. Rain Rate on the Davis says 8.11" an hour. 2nd EDIT: Quarter-sized hail now accumulating on the sidewalks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mattie g Posted August 19, 2011 Share Posted August 19, 2011 About the same here... less than a tenth of an inch of rain I was up in Jersey playing golf today and a storm blew up on us. Left at around 6:00 and hit a good amount of heavy rain on the way home, but just missed the storms near Baltimore. I peeked at the radar on the way home and was hopeful of seeing some action when I got back. And I'm not shocked to have seen nothing except for lighting and thunder.
