nw baltimore wx Posted September 27, 2020 Share Posted September 27, 2020 We are approaching Cumberland from the west and easy to tell the difference in the air mass out here and the stuff you all are describing on the other side of the ridge. 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CAPE Posted September 27, 2020 Share Posted September 27, 2020 GFS is trending in the right direction the last few runs for @losetoa6 Way too wet here for my liking though. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CAPE Posted September 27, 2020 Share Posted September 27, 2020 I like the 12z NAM better with the heavier rain distribution. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CAPE Posted September 27, 2020 Share Posted September 27, 2020 12z CMC keeps the heavy stuff down in eastern VA and NC. A general half to 1.5" for N VA and most of MD. It has been more progressive than the GFS and Euro though, so probably not correct. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought it was supposed to be fixed yesterday, but that doesn’t seem to be the case this morning. It was *not* supposed to be fixed yesterday. It was supposed to be evaluated for next steps yesterday (which it was). Bull-gear failure and it will likely be down for 10+ days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BlizzardNole Posted September 27, 2020 Share Posted September 27, 2020 Since September 3, I have received 0.15 on Sept. 10 and 0.2 on Sept. 26. Extra crispy! I'll be shocked to see more than a couple tenths on Tuesday. Nice and warm today though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nj2va Posted September 27, 2020 Share Posted September 27, 2020 While we need the rain here, today’s weather was an A for sure. 72 and partly cloudy/partly sunny throughout the day. Although its noticeable how low the lake is right now vs normal. Hopefully we get some solid rains this week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I heard they are going to take the level down past the lower limit this winter to do some maintenance.

CAPE Posted September 28, 2020 Share Posted September 28, 2020 Picked up 0.41" of rain overnight. Not sure where it came from. I guess I wasn't paying attention, but last I saw there was a 20% chance of showers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nj2va Posted September 28, 2020 Share Posted September 28, 2020 GFS favoring the I-81 corridor with the heaviest rain this week, dropping 2”+ over that area. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did you notice the GFS it is trending more progressive as well. Meanwhile, the dews here are insane. My location is in the upper 60's, but other locations much higher. Very gross for almost October 1 st. Looking at the satellite time lapse just now and seeing the back edge of the cloud deck rapidly advancing to the NE. Should go partly to mostly sunny later .

The pic is about the complete rock bottom that FSU football has hit. So LWX talking about 1-2" east of Route 15 and more (of course) east of I-95. I would be ecstatic with 0.75. I'd love some thunder too -- haven't had much of that at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RickinBaltimore Posted September 28, 2020 Share Posted September 28, 2020 Update on the LWX Radar: https://mesonet.agron.iastate.edu/wx/afos/p.php?pil=PNSLWX&e=202009281850 Looks like no sooner than the 16th of next month. On Saturday, technicians from the NWS Radar Operations Center (ROC), based in Norman, Oklahoma, determined that a primary component for turning the radar antenna, the bull-gear, needs replacement. This repair will require 12,000 to 15,000 pounds of equipment and a six-person team from the ROC to restore the radar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've been tapping into KDOX, but it obviously doesn't have great coverage our way. Can anyone suggest a good alternative while LWX is down?
