wxmeddler Posted July 11, 2012 Share Posted July 11, 2012 If your east of 16th St and N of Rhode Island Ave, you an inch of rain*.. Places up by Tacoma Park have near 1.5* *Based on KLWX and TDCA radar estimates. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wxmeddler Posted July 11, 2012 Share Posted July 11, 2012 Over 2 inches in Colimbia Heights If it gets over 2.5 or 3 you should probably go ahead and call NWS Sterling on the public number. Never hurts them to have more data points.. EDIT: Flash Flood 3 Hour Guidance is 2.75" for DC.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

esullivan Posted July 11, 2012 Share Posted July 11, 2012 I'm in upper NW near Connecticut and Nevada. Rained very hard for about 10 min and has been very light since. Can see by radar areass just S and SE getting pummeled. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ian Posted July 11, 2012 Share Posted July 11, 2012 Another from Bloomingdale https://twitter.com/...6/photo/1/large I guess radar seemingly underestimating totals by a decent amount might not be helping. It was pretty isolated over N DC I suppose but that was some crazy rain for an hour. If I wasn't lazy I could have wandered to rock creek I suppose.
