South of 64...especially in the central and SE parts of VA could see something today. Already pushing 70 S of Richmond w dews in the mid-upper 60s.

 

Warm front appears to be around the RIC , Tappanannock area - maybe eevn into SoMD with Patuxent Naval Air Station at 61 now.

Wow didn't realize the event was over and it was Thursday already.

I hope you are right tho...nothing compelling about rotating storms or 20" of rain too close to home.

I can see into the future. Wouldn't be surprised to see a tor watch to our south and some cya tor warnings issued by either LWX or Wakefield. But for the immediate DC area, nothing exciting but pouring rains will happen

Up here mid level winds are pretty southerly which isn't the best. Not too uncommon with a low that's closed for so long.. usually the early days are the good ones tornadowise. There's more westerly component further south though. The shear is quite good overall. You can even see little updrafts 'spinning' in breaks in the morning activity further south.  I think our problem will remain that it just keeps raining a lot.  Possible you get something embedded in that but who knows. If we're able to get sustained non rain and warm up a bit during peak heating we might have some more interesting times at least stormwise.

I am going to make sure there is a huge ridge in place when you go chasing in the Plains and its 105/70

Pretty good chance of that too. :P

 

Think we've got prob at least 10 days or so before any chance for anything organized.
