June 25-27 severe and heavy rain

Decent clearing evident on visible satellite in northern VA back west to the Blue Ridge.  6:00 pm - 1:00 am time frame could be really fun.  Nocturnal tornado threats are rare around here though...

Just got a look at the HRRR and a few of the LWX local models - looks like they do develop some stuff but it looks sort of weak. #nowcast ;)

Yea probably too little to late in the sunshine department but I still have my fingers crossed.

And with good wind field I guess they wouldn't have to be "intense" storms to take on the mini-supercell type of structure. low CAPE high shear can perform if conditions are right. That sun really needs to come out quickly though if we want to boost CAPE a bit. Sun will start to get too low to do a whole lot of good soon.

South of I-70 might be okay, but SW of IAD is definitely in a better spot.

I swear people don't know how to drive in the rain..I270S is a f**king parking lot.

 

I got passed by a guy doing about 55 in a 35 on a small double center line road around a curve, then watched him pass another car on the shoulder before the next curve, only to see him spun out with a flat tire up around the next clearing.
