Jesus...it f'ing dumped about 20 minutes ago. Crazy heavy rainfall for about 10-15 minutes - maybe the heaviest since Lee. Burke Road is crossed in two places.

I'll go out an measure soon, but it's pouring again. Looking like I might be over 3" on the day* - about 1.5" from the first storm, and the same, if not more, from this latest round.

* I'll eventually get a gauge, MN!

Multiple trees down in my neighborhood in Alexandria near Cameron station, power out, few streets blocked off.....all from the first cell around 1530-1545. Will try to upload pics when I can reliably do data on my mobile again.

Absolutely no indication of wind here, so I'm guessing that we are down because of lightning. I don't know which is worse.

10" should be an easy reach IMO... good chance of storms tomorrow and Sunday... doubt we reach much higher unless training occurs like today

 

models dont have much instability tomorrow tho sref has pretty high odds of 1000 sfc cape 21-0z and the nam did awful yesterday for today's instability.  shear is OK -- definitely pretty borderline. might be some iso svr tho not sure we'll pull off 6 in a row.

Prob just afternoon storms... maybe an iso svr storm with gusts to 60

I measured 2.25" on the dot from the last round. Accounting for a little splash would drop me a little, but I'm confident in saying I ended with just on either side of 3.5" on the day. With roads and lawns flooded in my neck of the woods, it would certainly make sense.

Local PWSs are showing just under 2". That seems really low for all of the local flooding here.

I guess I do need a gauge...

Reporting in from the desert zone -- dry as a bone here of course but I just talked with my folks in northern Calvert and they have just been pummeled.  Said the water in their pool is almost at the top (so 3-4" of rain) and the mulch got washed out of their garden beds.  They are not happy.  And now it looks like even more developing to their west?

 

I will water my dry yard tomorrow morning.  I'm confident we will see no rain here.
