Well one thing to look out for today are the winds.  With the ground so saturated, I wouldn't be surprised if there were  a lot of trees down.

Going to turn to severe weather soon. I have a gut feeling we miss out on decent March snows this year. Maybe a fluke rogue system but I see nothing that is hinting at a favorable late season pattern after next week tbh. Weeklies hinted at HL blocking but will probably be too little too late. We dont even have the widespread cold bottled in the HL this year, more like some idolized arctic air focused around the PV and that's it. Many unfrozen bodies of water that are usually solid ice, ssts still AN, etc. I say bring on the thunder, striped bass, and Phillies (and hopefully Flyers playoffs)!!

We may be in some severe weather now!  Storm damage from winds down in MD and severe thunderstorm warnings up west of here.

Temp up 5 degrees over last hour now 54.6 - high gust so far 15mph - transition to snow line 100 miles NW of here

You made me look at mine - downsloping in effect and temp has shot up to 55 here but still misty.  Warnings lofted and getting closer to the I-95 corridor.

Maybe I'm looking at it wrong, but I see zero indication of any rotation in the relative storm velocity. It actually looks like it glitched out for a few frames, I'm wondering if that automatically triggered the warning?

 

I mean, look at it: https://weather.cod.edu/satrad/nexrad/index.php?type=DIX-N0S-1-48

It's just wacky

We have partical sunshine here.   38degrees  WNW @ 22 and gusting around 30.  When I was out earlier judging by the branches down and trees swaying we definitely experienced higher gusts earlier.

Will I see a flurry Sunday morning?  We had brief white rain last Sunday afternoon and it sure looked nice.  Gotta take any little bit
