EasternUSWX Posted September 18, 2012 Share Posted September 18, 2012 It would be funny if there are no tornado warnings in all these watches. Pretty much. Right after I post this.. Tor warning NE of DC lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
H2O Posted September 18, 2012 Share Posted September 18, 2012 It rained fairly hard coming around the beltway and a couple gusts pushed the car a little. Winds were making the rain come up and over the walls on some of the bridges in Springfield. That was cool to see. A lot of dumbasses driving with hazards on too.

09-10 analogy Posted September 18, 2012 Share Posted September 18, 2012 Gusty, but didn't approach Sept. 8th. I'd say 40 maybe. Not much higher than the winds beforehand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

winterymix Posted September 18, 2012 Share Posted September 18, 2012 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. The cloud deck is so opaque that is seems as if it is 20 minutes before sunset outside now with heavy rain (and mist!) and sustained 25 mph winds. No lightning.
