I think we should be okay as afternoon goes on:

Per 1700 SPC meso -- around 1500-2000 MLCAPE, 3000-3500 SBCAPE, LIs are -6 to -8, 7.0 to 7.5 C/KM Mid Level Lapse Rates, 1000-1100 DCAPE.

Sig hail is 1.5" and sup composite is at 4 and at -4 for left moving sup

Per 1800 SPC meso -- around 2000-2500 MLCAPE, 3000-4000 SBCAPE, LIs are -7 to -9, 7.0 to 7.5 C/KM Mid Level Lapse Rates, 1000-1200 DCAPE.

Sig hail is 1.5" and sup composite is at 4 and at -4 for left moving sup

Also appears that effective shear gets to around 35kts as we go into the evening... that will help some

Once today / tonight is over it appears late Thursday into Friday could be a down right deluge in spots with the eastern gulf moisture headed at us and mini disturbances in the flow  . 6hr total  precip maps are impressive on the 12z Euro . Gfs and nam definitely lend support. Gefs is pretty insane with a 5+6 inch mean thru the weekend . Busy rest of the week ahead .

Yeah, I posted LWX afternoon disco about it in the May Disco Obs thread... they are saying 2-4 with up to 6" in some spots...

With the soaked ground, we should get to enjoy some SHWEET flash floods. There should be some decent strainers.

Hrrr has the tail reenergizing as it nears i70 lat.  And plenty of rain tonight in that general area 

Yeah HRRR tries to get storms into N VA and DC and MD... then develops another line across MD and holds it there with heavy rain

MCD just released for our region by the SPC, 60 percent chance of a watch, just looking at the Sterling radar, the Echo tops just northwest of Mappy are increasing. With all this instability some will get great pulse storms, before the training rains set up. West of Littlestown PA and south of Gettysburg, tops of 48k ft and hail. Storms are increasing along the west end of the line and there are some storms along the Blue Ridge.
