real Posted September 7, 2011 Share Posted September 7, 2011 Talk about mega flood disaster if we get another tropical system, or the aftermath, before the end of the month. It looks like the Susque Riv. is already going to come close to putting part of Harrisburg PA up the road under water Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It looks like the Susque Riv. is already going to come close to putting part of Harrisburg PA up the road under water I thought maybe Nate would sneak up a similar route but it seems most guidance has shifted hard left since yesterday. Initially Lee was not progged to go into the northern gulf either but it did not shift this way. GFS looks like a normal boring Sept pattern for the most part.

North Balti Zen Posted September 7, 2011 Share Posted September 7, 2011 Another torrential downpour for my drive home at 6:00. Some nice urban street flooding on Harford Rd just north of 25th with a few lanes shut down. Wet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ian Posted September 7, 2011 Share Posted September 7, 2011 Point of Rocks went from a crest of 32' to a crest of 12' phail Many western areas are going to end up with a lot less rain than initially forecast. Down here today mainly made for good pics with brief urban flooding. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mattmfm Posted September 7, 2011 Share Posted September 7, 2011 Many western areas are going to end up with a lot less rain than initially forecast. Down here today mainly made for good pics with brief urban flooding. Yeah this isn't the event, except in those areas that saw sustained training mainly up in PA, that leads to widespread extreme river flooding. The ground is fully saturated, but 3-6" over 72 hours is just wet, not historic. Not to mention upstream river basins (particularly Potomac) didn't wind up with a whole lotta rain.

It just didn't make any sense when looking at radar reflectivity. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ian Posted September 7, 2011 Share Posted September 7, 2011 Some of the cells down south still looking decent. Too bad we're hitting dark. The one just NE of RIC could maybe get warned.. some rotation now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It just didn't make any sense when looking at radar reflectivity. Figuring out exactly where a mostly thin (the good heavy rates came before the fatter blob) band is going to develop/train beforehand is pretty impossible. I think when the NAM has outputs like that it is a signal that someone in the general area will get doused rather than exactly where it puts it.
