So close (to this forum) but yet so far.   Could have a situation where BWI gets 10 inches and NYC .10

Bad luck recently with cutoffs closing off too far South. Moisture eventually pinwheels up here but the trend has been for that to go more towards SNE now.

The HRRR has ticked East the last two runs in a row. We'll see if it means anything. 

Meanwhile the 18z NAM keeps all of the heavy rain a hundred miles or so West of DC. It's been completely useless for this event from the beginning.

Your contradicting yourself. You have been saying for days this was going to be way way west. The saving grace in that scenario is we eek out some rain on the se flow that would have went to SNE

I didn't say that at all.

My thoughts from the beginning favored E PA and the DC-BWI corridor. I was hopeful it would come East in the end but it never happened.

The low level flow is already completely prohibitive of anything coming up this way. You can see here how the winds in E VA are Southerly or even Southwesterly but then shift to Southeasterly over the DE Bay. Over time as the low gradually wakens we should get into more of a Southerly flow and better rain chances but we probably have another 24 hours at least of clouds and occasional showers without seeing anything meaningful.

This is a good post. We obviously won't see much the next 24hrs but the nam is way to far west with the convection right now.

And meanwhile we're stuck in the easterly fetch

Light misty rain falling out there, very fall like raw and rainy night. Looks like the heavier rain is having a hard time making it north of Philly but should eventually work its way into the area. Have to see how things play out over the next couple of days or so, the DC area looks to get hit pretty hard.

Seeing a report from around Milton Delaware of over 7.16" of rain, 6.38" since midnight.

Yeah it has been well east of dca-bwi. Most of the models bring heavy rain into that area today. 

 

Here at home getting a steady wind whipped rain this morning. Surprised to see it honestly
