WxUSAF Posted May 26, 2021 Share Posted May 26, 2021 We have to leave for our game in about an hour and looks very likely storms won’t be here by then. Unless they start popping closer to home. So might be a drive there, warmup, and then get poured on scenario. Those annoy me. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have to leave a little after 5, and we said it will be our luck we will drive the 30 min to the field, get warmed up and then it will start raining. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SnowenOutThere Posted May 26, 2021 Share Posted May 26, 2021 As someone who lives near Reston I hate the radar it has a split right between the two areas of storminess and I know there is no way that is filling in unless a miracle happens.. maybe the NWS should of stuck with that map that excluded Fairfax county from the watch.

mappy Posted May 26, 2021 Share Posted May 26, 2021 ahhh just looked at radar, short of the storms falling apart, I think we will be rained out. Just a matter of it being called before we leave the damn house 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now that "split" we tend to see when summer storms come from the west...guessing that's the mountains that do that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cells to our north and south but mostly a miss! We'll see. Crunch time will probably be about 5-7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dailylurker Posted May 26, 2021 Share Posted May 26, 2021 Looks like the classic DC split is forming beautifully. I wish it would just rain. The sprinkles the other day dried up by 9am the following morning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nw baltimore wx Posted May 26, 2021 Share Posted May 26, 2021 At present, the line looks good for my area, but I always worry about weird stuff happening as it approaches the corn corridor. Anyone want to explain what the south-north movement on radar along I-97 might be? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WxUSAF Posted May 26, 2021 Share Posted May 26, 2021 Looks like Bay Breeze front just west of the bay. Radar looks solid for the rainout scenario assuming things don’t fall apart. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kmlwx Posted May 26, 2021 Author Share Posted May 26, 2021 Trajectory would seem to argue that my only hope is the cell between MIddleburg and Leesburg (if it can ramp up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SnowenOutThere Posted May 26, 2021 Share Posted May 26, 2021 Got 5 seconds of heavy rain in the sun then nothing. It is such pain living just west of the DC death split for storms because every time it looks like you are just far enough west to avoid the split and then you get 5 seconds of rain. Anyways is there a chance that any more storms could pop up? There seem to some out in the valley but wondering if it will hold. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mrs.J Posted May 26, 2021 Share Posted May 26, 2021 Was driving home from Purcellville on 287. Got caught in that warned storm in Loudoun and had decent sized hail just South of Lovettesville. The sound hitting the car I would guess about nickel sized. A lot of ponding on the roads in Lovettesville. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
