There was a pretty intense hail core over me and when it moved East it intensified. So there certainly may have been larger than the quarter size I saw. All I can say is that the Weinberg Center for the Arts is the theater downtown with a very high ceiling. You could hear the hail on the roof it was that loud. And it was during a dance going on so the music was loud. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smokeybandit Posted May 16, 2018 Share Posted May 16, 2018 I'll be curious to see the Cocorahs readings in the morning. My rain gauge simply couldn't handle the heavy rates with such large drops to get any kind of accurate reading Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jbakerman Posted May 16, 2018 Share Posted May 16, 2018 For those in FFX, there's water running across Guinea between Braeburn and Braddock in two different spots. I was able to drive over it (didn't see it, not a fun surprise). Was worst around the Long Branch stream. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

southmdwatcher Posted May 16, 2018 Share Posted May 16, 2018 The initial line has slipped south of Frederick. Scattered storms, riding the stalled front from Ohio and West Virginia are becoming more numerous and look to overspread the area, from the west.

EastCoast NPZ Posted May 16, 2018 Share Posted May 16, 2018 Weather-generated tsunami... WTF? Finally got some rain. Just got a 20-minute downpour. Probably around .70, but not going out to check the gage. Far cry from just about every other location on the eastern seaboard. I mean, ****, some people had storms strong enough to cause a ****ing tsunami. I barely got enough to water my grass for one day, but at least it was enough to beat back some more pollen.
