mattmfm Posted September 7, 2011 Share Posted September 7, 2011 Well, it should start to tilt neg. a bit at some point, so probably not going to move all that much further east. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then again, these south to north trains can sometimes be stubborn about shifting east. But we sure don't need much to get in on some of this, that's for certain.

Seems like the whole area of precip is starting to lift NEward a bit. So points NE of Baltimore might not get the deluge totals we're getting in HoCo/eastern Carroll/western Baltimore county.
