Ian Posted June 13, 2013 Share Posted June 13, 2013 Tornado threat on tuesday or are we looking at linear/MCS or even just pop ups? it's kind of nebulous for now. there is a surface low to the north but it's not overly impressive at any level for now.

gymengineer Posted June 13, 2013 Share Posted June 13, 2013 Power of social media-- CWG's live updates are actually a good compilation showing specific spots of trees down consistent with a severe thunderstorm across a wide area (DC, Laurel, MoCo, North Potomac, etc.) Although, that video out of Rockville of the 'tornado' is pretty sketchy. http://www.washingtonpost.com/blogs/capital-weather-gang/wp/2013/06/13/severe-storms-forecast-for-region-live-updates/?hpid=z2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wxmeddler Posted June 13, 2013 Author Share Posted June 13, 2013 That clear channel building "tornado" is lol. What their seeing is not a tornado, if anything the tornado would be behind the rain curtain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ian Posted June 13, 2013 Share Posted June 13, 2013 My guess is any local tor were brief and unseen tho I didn't watch radar the whole time when out. Tornado warnings with confirmed tornado are often wrong. Even the mets around here aren't well trained in what things look like. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tornado warnings with confirmed tornado are often wrong. Even the mets around here aren't well trained in what things look like. They will probably confirm a brief EF-0 in one or two places in MoCo and I wasn't closely watching the other possible locations in other conuties.

Quincy Posted June 13, 2013 Share Posted June 13, 2013 Tons of false tornado/funnel cloud pics being shared and tweeted.I was in what appeared to be the center of the signature on radar, even though rotation was weakening at that point. I did NOT see a funnel or tornado, although it was a very ominous scene, not to mention there was flash flooding, strong winds and literally gridlock roads. A lot of cars parked under overpasses and some kook on the radio also recommended that. Luckily he was corrected by the host. I believe this was in Elkridge. I've been driving literally all day, so haven't gotten to look at much in the way of reports. I'm still 3+ hours from home lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Avdave Posted June 13, 2013 Share Posted June 13, 2013 LOL Pathetic today by Ma Nature. All this talk was hilarious the last few days. Didnt know that 15 mins of rain, some Tornado warning and severe t storm warnings and gusty winds to 35 mph would need all that much talk. Next.

smokeybandit Posted June 14, 2013 Share Posted June 14, 2013 Yea not sure if it ran out of gas or what, but it didn't seem to bad in 21144. First severe weather season being a dad so I'm a little more cautious. I had an 8 month old for Hurricane Sandy. You definitely prepare differently.

DDweatherman Posted June 14, 2013 Share Posted June 14, 2013 Surprised that Yoda has not posted an interesting line from Atlanta's NWS with a STW there for "devastating" winds of 80+mph. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eskimo Joe Posted June 14, 2013 Share Posted June 14, 2013 I mapped to swaths of damage. One was approximately 2.8 miles long and the other was 1.5 miles. The width was no more than 100 - 200 yards. Both in lower Montgomery County. NWS assessment team is scheduled to visit the areas tomorrow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
