clueless Posted July 29, 2013 Share Posted July 29, 2013 Beautiful. We have had some pleasant days after the hot hot hot.... Kinda jealous we did not get much in the way of a real storm last night. The downpour was impressive though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
North Balti Zen Posted July 29, 2013 Share Posted July 29, 2013 Didn't get the storm that hit up by Katie last night, didn't really get much of anything all weekend.But sure am enjoying the beautiful air this morning. Lovely. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anything that skims the MD/PA line is going to hit me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Low to mid level shear looks pretty meh on the GFS but could still pull out some stronger storms with it. Would suck to get a series of large Great Lakes troughs with nothing to show for it.

Just a downpour. Just a few rumbles but two loud claps that woke up everyone Im sure. On 7/29/2013 at 10:58 AM, MN Transplant said: IAD 7.1" on the month, DCA 4.4", BWI 2.8" 3.7" at home. Quite the spread between IAD and DCA. Shows how these cells can pop up and dump when they do in the summer time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DCA climate record 1949 to 2012; July 15th-31st; no precipitation recorded: 591 days High of 83 or below: 66 occurrences (11% of no precip days) High of 84 or below: 92 occurrences (16% of no precip days) I'm guessing a lot of these days had cloudcover, so that makes the stats even more impressive.

I know Ian made a sarcastic remark about people making a big deal about a -6 (I don't even remember the day that was on), but to me it was a big deal because it was a sunny -6. Similar idea to today.

Similar idea to today. i make sarcastic remarks about everything... i never said it was "typical".. my memory isn't that great without a spreadsheet. i think people overdramatize pretty much everything these days though and that comparing to the past few summers is myopic.
