Outflow is really outrunning the storms now. Well into MoCo (almost to Rockville even).

Having just gotten power back on Sat night after last Tuesday's storms, be careful what you wish for!!

       The CAMs have been pretty confident that new cells will form on the outflow and roll through Howard County.    I suppose we could still fail, but I like our chances - I know that I also really need the rain and am not optimistic that the timing of the Thursday system will work out in our favor.

yeah sitting here near Laytonsville wondering what the storms near Poolesville heading for the Germantown area are going to do when they intersect those outflow boundaries nearby.

Can definitely see the rotation at the higher tilts near Reisterstown... not down to tilt 1 though looks like

[aldie 22]

Everything slid literally less than a mile north of me but it sure looks intense 

[batmanbrad]

looks like a little bit of training cell stuff setting up WSW to ENE heading in the general direction of MoCo, not sure if it will maintain itself, but if it fills in/enhances, the flood threat could develop.

[tstate21]

Could definitely see some rotation in the clouds as the storms rolled in here in Owings Mills as well.  More wind on the immediate front end of the storm than during.  

[yoda]

SMW up for the Tidal Potomac for the gust front moving through producing winds over 40mph

Legit heavy rain in Reisterstown. Looks like it should ease off shortly bit if we get another round or two like this it could definitely cause issues.

Just some heavy rain. Tornado warning was just northeast of here.

[Fozz]

Right in the bullseye… yikes

[Fozz]

Tornado warning dropped.

[tstate21]

Well my above post aged well.  Still not seeing any tight rotation on velocity scans though.  

[WxUSAF]

Shelf cloud along the BW Parkway as I’m driving home.

Meso update https://www.spc.noaa.gov/products/md/md1511.html

Focus is shifting North and east (as it should)

 

  DISCUSSION...Widely scattered thunderstorms continue along the I-95
   corridor this afternoon from near Washington D.C. to the NYC
   vicinity. Some of these storms have produced near-severe measured
   wind gusts as well as sporadic wind damage. This activity will
   continue to pose a threat for damaging gusts the next few hours.
   Occasional weak rotation has been noted at times as well, especially
   with storms further north across NJ/NY where low-level shear remains
   stronger compared to further south. 

[tstate21]

Front end of the lead storm in NE Baltimore heading towards Middle River is getting a hook look to it as well.  

[Kmlwx]

Radar is starting to have that flood threat kind of look with little cells continuing to pop up behind the outflow boundary.
