Majority of short range guidance showed the big total potential in some spots in central Md and I remember before bed Hrrr was obviously way underdone esp western suburbs around 10 PM or so. Pretty extreme ff event for some . Here in Eldersburg area. There was some minor stream flooding and water on roads but nothing major .At home ...probably about same probably because it was sunday of a long holiday weekend. .68 for the day, 3.7" since thursday IMBY Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chase Posted July 8, 2019 Share Posted July 8, 2019 The Huntington Levee (Alexandria) had its ribbon cutting on June 15 and consequently dozens of homes were saved by it this morning when Cameron Run reached 11.8 feet this morning. A 10 foot rise in an hour. Previously, 9' was when some homes began to be impacted and 11' was when "dozens of homes in Huntington are flooded. Water affects businesses near the Route 1 and Fort Hunt Drive intersection." 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlizzardNole Posted July 8, 2019 Share Posted July 8, 2019 3.2 from the deluge this morning and 4.5 since Thursday. As hard as it was pounding down here, I can't imagine the places that got 6 plus! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nj2va Posted July 8, 2019 Share Posted July 8, 2019 Nearby PWS around me are between 3-4" which all fell in less than an hour. 0.09" out in McHenry at my PWS. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EastCoast NPZ Posted July 8, 2019 Share Posted July 8, 2019 Lol. I'm in Maine, so I dont care.... but 0.09" today back home. Temp this morning in Rangeley was 47F. Yesterday was 72, sparkling blue skies, and not a trace of humidity. It was like mid october back home. This place is magnificent. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MN Transplant Posted July 8, 2019 Share Posted July 8, 2019 The tipping bucket couldn’t keep up. 3.97” on the VP2 vs 4.27” actual in the CoCoRaHS gauge. I think it is safe to put this event second behind TS Lee for an intensity/duration combo since 2009 for me. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Amped Posted July 8, 2019 Share Posted July 8, 2019 This is the 3rd time Frederick has had 5"+ rainstorm since 2015. The other 2 were. 9/29/2015 5/16/2018 Here's a shot of the flood control system doing a pretty good job keeping up with the runoff and limiting the scope of the damage. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pazzo83 Posted July 9, 2019 Share Posted July 9, 2019 2.9" in West End/downtown DC - most of that in about 45min. Got caught running in it - was some of the heaviest rain I've ever been in. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

southmdwatcher Posted July 9, 2019 Share Posted July 9, 2019 Wow, pretty darned good when you are fringed by the storms and still get 3.07" for the day and the vast majority was in 90 minutes. The Cameron Run roaring beside and under the Beltway was extremely impressive, I found out that it had dropped almost 2 feet from it's peak, when I passed through.

RDM Posted July 9, 2019 Share Posted July 9, 2019 A little late, but.... Our tally was 3.39" in a little over an hour NW of Vienna. Lawyers Road was closed in both directions from our house (our driveway is on Lawyers), leaving only one route out via a nearby sub-division. This happens a couple times a year or so on average on tributaries of Difficult Run. The high water mark left by the mud on Lawyers was a new max.

yoda Posted July 10, 2019 Share Posted July 10, 2019 Double super impressive (radar is in Twitter link) Yesterday's high-precipitation supercell as seen by NWS radar between 3am and 2pm Monday traversing MD/DC/and northern VA. As shown on previous tweets, the highest rain totals of 3-6" were in a band only about 15 miles wide, but extended in a path more than 100 miles long. https://mobile.twitter.com/NWS_BaltWash/status/1148583287134121984 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

frd Posted July 11, 2019 Share Posted July 11, 2019 Wow, went to the store and encountered an incredible thunderstorm, the most intense rainfall I have seen in years. Looks like over 1.50 inches here. Flooding on roads and vivid CTG strikes. Believe it is headed NE and carries a STW with it. There goes the garden. but really incredible to see and dark as night too! Also this would not send because of various FIOS issues here, and power outages 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
