osfan24 Posted April 6, 2017 Share Posted April 6, 2017 Seems to me like the storms to the south keep approaching DC and then weakening because they are running into colder air. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Definitely. It's still pretty stable north of EZF. That should change with the main event line in the next couple hours. It's getting going right now. Hopefully it delivers for somebody on the forum.

MN Transplant Posted April 6, 2017 Share Posted April 6, 2017 0.57" precip so far. 59/58. Looks like the line that Bob shows in the HRRR is near CHO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's our main event (stating obvious). We'll see how it goes. Meso's are pretty aggressive with it as it works through. Very nice rain event so far either way. The whole area is going to green up big time over the next week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bodhi Cove Posted April 6, 2017 Share Posted April 6, 2017 Old wooden ship that half sunk in Curtis Creek (near the AA/Balt. City line) is on fire due to a lightning strike. From what I was told, fire department is there, but they can't do much from the shoreline. Update: Fireboat on scene. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bob Chill Posted April 6, 2017 Share Posted April 6, 2017 One of the more interesting things about the line coming through later is the orientation. It's going to be inverted from what we usually see in these parts. Pretty cool. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

osfan24 Posted April 6, 2017 Share Posted April 6, 2017 If nothing else, we are getting a ton of rain today. Guessing everyone ends up will over two inches. Another big line heading our way and it seems to be maintaining its strength better as it moves north. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SVR warning up for east of Fredericksburg into southern MD. Can either one of you explain what you mean by the line being inverted? Do you mean S to N movement instead of the usual W to E? And I guess when you say that the lightning is "densely packed" that there is a bunch of lightning down there? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's pretty rare for us to get a line of strong storms rotating around cyclonic flow centered to our NW. The SE-NW orientation and movement is backwards from what we typically see (NE-SW) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, there does seem to be a good amount of lightning down there per RadarScope, though it doesn't appear that cloud tops are very impressive yet via GOES infrared. You can see the intense shear in the visible loop. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
