andyhb Posted September 18, 2012 Share Posted September 18, 2012 Yeah, I figured that NC warning was coming, some nice discrete cells down there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mappy Posted September 18, 2012 Share Posted September 18, 2012 I have high standards I guess. Pencil lines with little to no lightning aren't that thrilling. You take what you can get.. Wind is ripping out ahead so it should perform. I'm bored Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mattskiva Posted September 18, 2012 Share Posted September 18, 2012 Heavy rain with a gust to 41 at IAD. Boring here. 0.71" in about 15 minutes and a little breezy but otherwise nothing special. 0.98" on the day so far Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stormpc Posted September 18, 2012 Share Posted September 18, 2012 Monsoon right now. Had a gust to 46mph when the first drops started to fall with this line. Winds down now but absolutely pouring Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MN Transplant Posted September 18, 2012 Share Posted September 18, 2012 With the direction of movement and orientation of the segments, somebody in the Beltway is going to get a nice bit of rain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep, but it was the heaviest rain I had seen all year. Disappointing with the winds, though. This is a big deal for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TradeWinds Posted September 18, 2012 Share Posted September 18, 2012 Just shy of 4" in Ballenger Creek today. Biggest one day rain event in years here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andyhb Posted September 18, 2012 Share Posted September 18, 2012 No discrete cells...man the supercell composite is up to 16 south of BWI with a fixed layer STP of 3, what a waste. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
usedtobe Posted September 18, 2012 Share Posted September 18, 2012 Just stay out of my beer fridge and we're good Mr. Pepco. Just be glad you don't have BG&E, they make Mr. Pepco look good at least in mby. Heck my SBCAPE is over 1500 according to the plot just posted which worries me and is higher than I thought it would be. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RodneyS Posted September 18, 2012 Share Posted September 18, 2012 Fun fact: IAD has yet to crack 1" of precip on the month. Hopefully they can double or triple today. Weather Underground is now reporting 0.87 inches today at Dulles, which brings the September total to 1.53 inches. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

usedtobe Posted September 18, 2012 Share Posted September 18, 2012 Not seeing much in the way of svr gusts with this line.. only marginal increases off pre-line winds. Looks like the chances of getting a tornado are pretty low except maybe near the LEWP that is translating ewd near Fredricksburg.....it shouuld have some vorticity with it but right now the Doppler is not showing any signs of a meso at least on the image I was looking at.

A warned TS line is entering my area but the southern portion, near DC is taking on a bow shape. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MN Transplant Posted September 18, 2012 Share Posted September 18, 2012 Maybe mid-upper 30s gusts. Pretty tame. Keep the rain coming, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
usedtobe Posted September 18, 2012 Share Posted September 18, 2012 A warned TS line is entering my area but the southern portion, near DC is taking on a bow shape. There ought to be decent gusts with the line with the winds already as high as they are someone is bound to get over 50 mph I would think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bob Chill Posted September 18, 2012 Share Posted September 18, 2012 That was a letdown. I had higher gusts before the line moved through. Good soaking and the street is kinda flooded. Oh well, maybe somebody else will see something interesting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kmlwx Posted September 18, 2012 Share Posted September 18, 2012 Surges of wind and blinding rain here. Pretty intense. Trees really whipping around outside. Perhaps not severe tho. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mattie g Posted September 18, 2012 Share Posted September 18, 2012 Not particularly exciting, but not terrible for mid-September. Gusty winds with heavy rain as the line came through. Seems like it was completely overwarned. Moderate straitform rains now. Yay. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
