WVclimo Posted September 5, 2017 Share Posted September 5, 2017 Some fairly large tree branches snapped off here and a basketball hoop toppled. Waiting for the rain to subside to do a more thorough check of the yard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mrs.J Posted September 5, 2017 Share Posted September 5, 2017 About to get that line over here in Frederick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chinook Posted September 5, 2017 Share Posted September 5, 2017 The squall line looked pretty intense here at 1920z( 3:20 Eastern). Some wind reports close to Hagerstown and Martinsburg. Still has 60 dbZ for Frederick MD, so you'll get a heavy downpour there, possible hail. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eurojosh Posted September 5, 2017 Share Posted September 5, 2017 It's odd, because the HRRR has consistently had the line fall apart as soon as it gets dark/touches DC, despite DPs that are higher on the coastal plane. I could see this holding together for a bit further East than the HRRR shows. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chinook Posted September 5, 2017 Share Posted September 5, 2017 1 hour ago, 87storms said: the legend of the dc split continues. Well, you may rightly think that the DC area gets missed by severe weather in most years. I have been playing a severe weather game on a different forum. Do you know how many points I have gotten from Washington DC and nearby cities this year? Tons. I hit the day when there were 3 tornadoes in Washington, plus I hit 2 or 3 or 4 other big days where the hail and wind reports came in by the dozen(s). One day I picked La Plata MD because it seems to attract (F5) severe weather. That pick worked out alright, I think I got about 10-15 hail/wind points. Looks like some heavy rain is about to come into Leesburg VA. I see 60 dBz on composite reflectivity there at Middleburg, VA. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I see 60 dBz on composite reflectivity there at Middleburg, VA. in general, this is a moderate place to live. winters are rarely extreme. summers are rarely extreme. storms are rarely extreme. we're a jack of all trades here, but that's what i like about it. pretty good mix of everything. the leesburg stuff looks like it has potential for the dc-bmore corridor.

RichmondTarHeel Posted September 6, 2017 Share Posted September 6, 2017 Well that came out of nowhere. Loudest crack of thunder I've heard in a while just woke me and the wife up in fairfax. Didn't even know it was supposed to storm tonight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
