smokeybandit Posted April 30, 2014 Share Posted April 30, 2014 Only 2.5" IMBY for the event, but enough to clog up a window well drain and an exterior basement stairwell drain that I haven't cleared in a couple years (oops). Glad I left work early to unclog it all before it became an issue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stormpc Posted April 30, 2014 Share Posted April 30, 2014 Stuck at 53.5 while Andrews AFB is up to 65/65. Pretty good progression west now with the warm front. DCA nearly 60 now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

snowfan Posted April 30, 2014 Share Posted April 30, 2014 Based on the traj of the stuff in the Carolinas, the eastern shore could take it on the chin later tonight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ice Crystal Posted April 30, 2014 Share Posted April 30, 2014 Crazy crazy amount of rain here in Howard County. It slows down briefly then kicks back up again. My pool pump can't keep up so the entire pool cover is under water. Our dry creek in the back is flowing with current and the local wetlands park across the street is completely inundated- literally water over the bridge that usually has several feet of clearance. Thundering now, again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

StudentOfClimatology Posted April 30, 2014 Share Posted April 30, 2014 HRRR nailed the development of that convection to the S/SW. Looks like we're not done. Hoping the warm-front can make it through here before the storms arrive. It's only 5 miles from me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MN Transplant Posted April 30, 2014 Share Posted April 30, 2014 HRRR nailed the development of that convection to the S/SW. Looks like we're not done. High-res WRFs had it too. This was a well-modeled event all around. Except the wedge of course, but that is never handled quite right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
