Ok, who do we have to convince to buy the Stanwyck software for DCA?

http://www.saiawos.com/onlinelist.php

We're proud to introduce our newest product, the SAI AWOS/ASOS Graphical Display software. If you have an ASOS or AWOS at your airport and would like to see it graphically online every 60 seconds then we have the system for you.

Yes please!!! Maybe think the CWG community could go in on a AWOS ($48-74,000) and put it downtown DC and host this software so we don't have to rely on hourly jet blast reports?

It would take quite a while to raise that amount of money...and I dont think many besides hardcore weather enthusiasts would really care

What clips the area? The "derecho" or random storms?

I guess the squall line of doom. Not much precip on QPF but line clips MD. I wouldn't be surprised to see the 30% shifted over us at least. Not sold we get much or anything but it might be too close to ignore.

Well - whatever happens tomorrow today was beautiful! I was down near Ian again (I'm actually stalking him jk).

A woman approached me on the mall and asked me for directions to the mall. I had to burst her bubble and tell her that the mall was the grassy thing she was standing on. Must not have been local.

Storms tomorrow? Woooo if so....Meh if not.

I'm still not sold on the derecho talk even from SPC. A lot of guidance has this stuff going up on the frontal zone and not necessarily becoming a single entity. I guess the NAM is suggestive though.

Could be a bunch of lines linked together? - Serial derechoish?

Man NY is going to get creamed.

SPECIAL WEATHER STATEMENT

NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE BUFFALO NY

815 PM EDT WED JUL 25 2012

...STRONG TO SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS EXPECTED OVERNIGHT...

A COMPLEX OF THUNDERSTORMS DEVELOPING OVER THE UPPER GREAT LAKES

THIS EVENING WILL MOVE SOUTHEAST OVERNIGHT AND PUSH ACROSS THE

WESTERN COUNTIES OF NEW YORK AFTER 2 AM. THE THUNDERSTORMS WILL BE

PART OF AN INCREASINGLY UNSTABLE...MOISTURE RICH AIRMASS THAT

WILL SUPPORT VIGOROUS UPDRAFTS...LEADING TO A HEIGHTENED THREAT

FOR SEVERE WEATHER.

THE GREATEST THREAT WILL BE IN THE FORM OF DAMAGING THUNDERSTORM

WINDS IN EXCESS OF 60 MPH...ALONG WITH VERY FREQUENT CLOUD TO

GROUND LIGHTNING. THERE IS EVEN THE RISK OF AN ACTUAL DERECHO

MOVING THROUGH THE REGION...WHICH COULD EASILY PRODUCE WINDS IN

EXCESS OF 70 MPH.

THE STRONGER STORMS WILL LIKELY PRODUCE TORRENTIAL DOWNPOURS...

WHICH COULD POTENTIALLY LEAD TO LOCALIZED FLOODING IN POOR

DRAINAGE AREAS...PARTICULARLY IN URBAN AREAS.

THE HIGHEST CHANCE FOR THE STRONG TO SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS WILL BE

OVER THE FAR WESTERN COUNTIES BETWEEN 2 AM AND 5 AM EDT.
