Eskimo Joe Posted September 3, 2020 Share Posted September 3, 2020 I'm thinking the TORs are coming off the terminal radars because the velocities off LWX don't appear too impressive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kmlwx Posted September 3, 2020 Author Share Posted September 3, 2020 Is LWX in SAILS? Would think they'd use it during this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They may just be warning broad rotation. But that MoCo one did look pretty good on a few of the TDWRs. It doesn't look great right now. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BlizzardNole Posted September 3, 2020 Share Posted September 3, 2020 This one hurt. Even Germantown proper looks to have gotten it good based on Radarscope. The meat of the storm missed me by two miles. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fourseasons Posted September 3, 2020 Share Posted September 3, 2020 I'm in Alexandria, near the Fairfax County line with Alexandria City, and I can hear the thunder from the line of storms going through Bethesda and Reston and further north. I've actually been hearing thunder for probably the last half hour or so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's a relatively good indication of 1-km AGL rotation from KLWX for the storm west of Baltimore City. Also some shear-induced size sorting evident in the relative placement of the ZDR and KDP maxima. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
