Line forming back along the WV/VA border. Race against sunset to see if it can make it into the Metro areas before it dies out. Has been intensifying recently. Probably some overturning in areas that have gotten heavy rain.

I got on the Beltway at Georgia Avenue around 7:40 heading westward, with black skies to my north out Georgia and to the west ahead of me on the Beltway. I could see the rain ahead past Connecticut Avenue, and that's where it started to POUR, all the way until River Road. Not much more than spitting by the time I crossed into Virginia, and nothing down the GW Parkway then across the 14th Street Bridge, where I could see clear skies beneath the cloud line that was still clearly over Montgomery County. And it was black to the north northeast, behind the Washington Monument.

Ha, gotcha didn't it?

 

It did, but I stayed on the NW edge of it as it actually ended up moving south and east of me.  The backside filled in, so I did get a decent rain out of it.  Looks like I got nearly .40 from that one and maybe another couple hundredths from another around 7 PM.  There is a big cell again just to my east right now; thunder and lightning like crazy, but I'm only getting light rain.  Nice to watch it though.
