Late June 2012 storms

Well maybe something exciting will happen for Friday :)

The thing we all have to remember is that it only takes one big storm moving through a fairly densely populated area to make a big impression. Remember the morning storm a few years back that scraped right through DC Metro/MoCo and knocked out power for a few days to many. IIRC that was pretty isolated.

newer SREF latching onto the morning idea for friday.. having an mcs type deal modeled just north is probably ok for now. it actually gets n md pretty good on the sref it looks. models seem to sorta like late sat now too. surface still pretty unimpressive all around but there is consistent signal of at least small vorts riding through the flow. it's about as solid a nw flow pattern for us as i've seen as long as we have some forcing and can break the cap.

GFS looks active in the broader area thru the weekend. Perhaps still suspect in details but good to see some real qpf showing up on the models.

I do wonder if we'll be able to reach max potential heat if we have little disturbances running by.

Tomorrow looks iffy. Morning stuff might clip some of us. There isn't any good lift mechanism late despite good flow. Maybe Sat.. Tho this pattern can surprise shorter term I suppose.

Summer Alberta clipper pattern. I think it is just hard to pinpoint exactly where these things will eventually track.

Edit: kinda stating the obvious.

I don't recall - do these things have a tendency to go north or south of progged?

an mcs/psuedo derecho should tend to end up a bit south once going but who knows on where the path would be at this range i guess. it'd probably be a little better to have 500 heights a little lower here. but i don't think we'll know much till it fires up honestly. the pattern's there (if better north perhaps)..

The HPC seems to be more encouraged by our chances than they were. Hoping for rain, but realizing it can be very hit and miss this time of the year.

Area forecast discussion

National Weather Service Baltimore Maryland/Washington District of Columbia

1052 PM EDT Thursday Jun 28 2012

Synopsis...

high pressure will build over the region tonight and Friday. A frontal

boundary will stall near the area into the weekend...lingering

into early next week.

&&

Near term /through Friday/...

short term models have been trying to develop an area of cnvctn over eastern Michigan

which would eventually drop into central PA. This doesn't appear

to be happening. We still have some low chance probability of precipitation acorss the north..but

these have been pared back..and am suspicious that middle Atlantic will xprnc

any thunderstorms overnight.

Sweet storm this morning in Cockeysville, woke me up just before 5 then jumped outta bed as it was hailing. Got pea sized hail here, and made my first weather spotter report!

Storm broke off to two cells, so getting another small storm now, lots of lightning.
